As as aspiring wine aficionado, at least since my trip to Napa with my girlfriend, I have wanted to learn more and more about wine, especially since my trip to Berringer, and since I am also a very large fan of John Cleese I thought this would be an ideal show, and it is, though a little short, so it could have gone farther.

Cleese first takes a group of his friends and tries to get different ways of describing wine, then journeys to various wine makers and learns more about the 3 big red and 3 big white wine grapes, and they wines they make and the difference. The only thing not really covered were rose wines. And then he tells you to get a good wine shop and have conversations about wine to learn more and develop your pallet. This show is fun and well done, and makes you want to explore your own wine tastes, and to develop your own wine vocabulary.

It is too short, but has some additional tips from Cleese, and some extended scenes with the wine makers, that do lengthen this out a bit, but it should certainly be longer.
