This week I welcome long-time Patron and listener, Bevis Sydney, who is not only a wine educator in the UK, but also a movie buff. He and I give our views on the top 8 wine movies, according to a poll of the Patron community and general consensus from the press on the top wine movies.

Remember \u2013 movies, like wine, are subjective. You don\u2019t have to agree with us, but you do have to be respectful in your comments! You can always skip to the next movie if you don\u2019t like what we\u2019re saying. It\u2019s just wine and it\u2019s just a movie.
