SOMM, the popular shorthand for sommelier, was a documentary detailing the quest to pass what is arguably one of the hardest tests in the world: the Master Sommelier exam. How do you follow up this tale of aspiring wine experts working towards the highest honor of their profession? With “SOMM: Into The Bottle”.

Here’s a preview:
And if that’s not enough to get your grapes fermenting, how about my interview with SOMM Writer and Director Jason Wise? He was a guest on my Wine Without Worry podcast back in June of 2013. Pretty sure I asked him about a sequel at the time; I’ll have to go back and listen to it myself.
And who was that saying “It’s like a big mystery.” in the movie preview? Oh yeah, I thought she looked familiar. It’s my pal Madeline Puckette of Wine Folly. Who was also on my podcast. WHOA!
If you were directing a move about how wine is made, what questions would you want answered? Let me know in the comments.
What a great stash of information on behind the scenes in the world of wine! Thanks!
Susan,
I am really looking forward to seeing it. Hopefully in a theater that serves some good wine!
Best,
Jameson
