Bottle Shock
1976… California vs. France in a definitive battle for chardonnay. From Apple Trailers,
There are certain moments in history when America has proven itself to the world: Neil Armstrong setting foot on the Moon; or the US Men’s Hockey team beating the Soviet Union in the 1980 Olympics. One such moment, however, never got the recognition it deserved: In 1976, a small American winery bested the exalted French wines of the time and sent the wine industry into a tizzy – putting California wines on the map for good.
Reason enough to see this movie: Bill Pullman and Alan Rickman are an awesome pair.
Jim Barrett (Pullman): Why don’t I like you?
Steven Spurrier (Rickman): Because you think I’m an ass. And I’m not, really, I’m just… British. And, well… you’re not.
