“”Wine is sunlight, held together by water.” The poetic wisdom of the Italian physicist, philosopher, and stargazer, Galileo Galilei. It all begins with the soil, the vine, the grape. The smell of the vineyard – like inhaling birth. It awakens some ancestral, some primordial… anyway, some deeply imprinted, and probably subconscious place in my soul.” Steven Spurrier said.

This was a great movie about wine and competition between different countries.

Alan Rickman stars as a Wine Shop owner who is head of the Wine Society.

He decides to go to the United States, specifically California, to see what their wine is

like.

This actually happened. It’s based upon events that started in 1976. It has actors such as Chris Pine, Alan Rickman, Bill Pullman, Dennis Farina, Rachael Taylor, and Freddy Rodreguez.

I won’t give very much away, but if you are a fan of Alan Rickman you need to see this movie.

I’ll provide you with a couple clips from the score by Mark Adler.
