"Take this, Miles" - Wine Spectator

"In the post - 'Sideways' years, Merlot lovers have barely been able to show their faces. But filmmaker Rudy McClain unveils his strong cinematic rebuttal - 'Merlove,' a documentary defending the grape..."
-San Francisco Chronicle

"As a documentary for wine lovers, it's essential viewing...a lighthearted, philosophical odyssey...'Merlove' is a guaranteed treat."
-The Seattle Times

"After Sideways: Merlot movie to redress the balance"
-Decanter

Merlove is a documentary celebrating Merlot wine in response to the movie Sideways. Have the courage to embark on your own wine adventure. Merlove will help you learn more about wine, but it is your own experience that will guide your personal journey. As you try new wines you will gain love and appreciation for the gifts that wine can bring. Like anything in life, wine can be enjoyed and enhanced by sharing it with others. The bottom line is good wine is good wine and bad wine is bad wine, but that should not stop the adventure. The message of Merlove is that no single grape varietal should be singled out as superior or inferior to others. Enjoy as we interweave documentary style filmmaking with the animation of a bottle of Merlot wine named "Merlove" who must find a way to fill itself with love when aimlessly tossed into the ocean of mediocre Merlot wine.

We want people to know that Merlot is ready to be loved again by all and remember that every vintage has a new story to tell...

Married With Children was nominated for seven Golden Globes® and seven Emmy Awards® over the course of its run, including best actor and best actress nominations for Ed O’Neill and Katey Sagal.

The Bundy family – led by ever-scheming Al (O’Neil), lazy housewife Peg (Sagal), promiscuous yet naive daughter Kelly (Applegate), and sexually frustrated son Bud (Faustino) -- lives their lives in complete disarray. This season, there’s a new man in the house when Peggy’s relatives leave their young son with the Bundys. Al takes a job as a topless bartender to help with bills, Kelly buys a motorcycle, Bud starts his own fraternity to meet girls, and Peggy spends so much that Al can’t retire.

Jancis Robinson’s Wine Course

Jancis Robinson's Wine Course

Jancis Robinson's Wine Course Rating:
List Price: $19.95
Sale Price: $37.64
Availability: unspecified

Product Description

Over the course of five videos, Jancis Robinson gives us a basic understanding of wine: how it is made, how to appreciate it, how to properly store, open, and drink it. Robinson is an expert in the field, editor of The Oxford Companion to Wine, as well as a columnist for the Wine Spectator. These tapes, though, are not just about the drink; just as interesting is her look into the people behind the wines. Each video introduces a new locale and the people who cultivate the grapes and turn them into nectar. Robinson never speaks down to her viewer--she points out that wine should not be a serious subject, that its point is to provide pleasure--although she is frequently a bit condescending to the vintners in her interviews, making the show all the more amusing. Some of the best moments occur when she offers a winemaker a taste of the competitor's wine--somehow they never think it is quite up their own standards. She revels in revealing the scandals and failures of the wine world, providing a gossipy feel. While the wine course is more than enough reason to watch this series, the cinematography is spectacular, beautifully highlighting the wine-growing regions of the world--from Australia to Chile to Oregon to Europe. Mixing history and culture with nuts and bolts, this set is a perfect place to start if you have little or no previous knowledge of wine. --Jenny Brown
