Mondovino

[wineguruchgo]

Has anyone seen this yet? Just released on DVD this week.

Basically it's a low-budget documentary about the political world of wine. Topics include how the styles of wines are changing, especially in Bordeaux and Burgundy. The effect that Parker has on wineries and how some think that because of him illegal practices are going on in Burgundy. The problem with the Mondavi's when they wanted to buy in lower France and wasn't allowed to so they turned to Italy.

It's really interesting. A must rent for all cork-dorks!
