Mondovino

NEW DOCS

Vintner vs. family vendetta, Mondavi vs. Terroir. Bathed in Mediterranean light, California sunshine and French attitude, this movie is big and fruity with a great nose (for trouble). In a whirlwind tour of worldwide wine—from Robert Parker’s modest digs outside Baltimore to artisan Italian vineyards, from Napa to Languedoc—Mondovino puts wine in a global context. Repeat this: micro-oxygenate.  RR
