John Cleese’s Wine For The Confused
(Koch Vision)

Do you like wine? Monty Python? If the answer’s yes, then you’ll want to pick up this delightful disc that contains many helpful tips on how to enjoy the fermented grape. Cleese takes a ride through the central coastal region around Santa Barbara and visits several local wineries and vineyards to discuss various types of grapes, how they’re grown and techniques that form the complex flavors of each batch. Other helpful tips include how to order in restaurants, buying from local retailers, storage, proper temperatures and more. As one might expect, there’s plenty of humor throughout, meaning that you can watch this with your favorite wine snob and not feel like a total idiot for not knowing the difference between a merlot and a pinot noir. - David Bassin
