F is for Films about Wine


I can’t chase bad guy spies like James Bond. I can’t scale Dubai skyscrapers on a Mission Impossible like Ethan Hunt. I can’t fight evil in an Ironman suit like Tony Stark. But drinking wine with a couple of friends à la Sideways, that—yes that—I can do.


PLEASE NOTE:

 However you can find it, and more, in my collection of wine stories called Evolution of a Wine Drinker available on Amazon.com!

 Thank you!

    Excellent commentary on the film and people trying to reenact it. I agree. Get the wine and make your own moments.

      Hi Tracy!
      Thanks for reading and for your kind words. Much appreciato! Yep, life is about making your own moments--but when you can't go wine tasting, SIDEWAYS is an enjoyable film to see instead!

    I love this post!! I've never been to wine country (well I drove through quickly one time) and I have not seen this movie. However, I just got invited to an exclusive blogger event there in Oct. I am going to be watching this movie ASAP to get inspired for my trip. On a travel note: I love to go off the beaten path. Sometimes it is cool to see the main tourists traps but after you've been trampled by people to see the Rosetta Stone it is more relaxing to hike into a Scottish paddock for petting and feeding reindeer.

      Hi Junebug!
      Thanks for reading and for your comment! Your wine trip sounds exciting! I'm sure you will enjoy it because there's so much to love about wine country. If you get a chance to see SIDEWAYS, it's a little gem of a movie that I thoroughly enjoyed. I hope you do, too!

      Hi!
      Thanks for reading and for your comment! You must be a wine drinker! I'd love see some of your photos of wine... Maybe with "W"? Happy A-Zing!
