    Pretty informative for all but the most knowledgeable wine person, presented in an amusing and non-pretentious way.

    A most entertaining and educational short commentary on wine. I learned a lot, especially about pricing. I was disappointed that he only covered California Central Valley, obviously just a short drive from his home in Beverly Hills. Nevertheless, it is well worth watching, particularly if you enjoy the dry humour of John Cleese.

    I love wine, and I love John Cleese...it doesn't get any better than this! John is charming and very "human" in his admittance to being fairly wine-ignorant. Obviously he has more money and more access to wine/winermakers than the average wine drinker, but he makes us all feel like we could have that access! He breaks down the snobby lingo, and makes his snobby wine friends look foolish, with all the charm and style for which he's known!
