Captivating New Wine Movie - STORM

This video was linked to an article on WineBusiness.com that originated on the K&L Wine Merchants blog.  So if you can follow all that, we can say that it is an interesting online wine movie.  It has great production value and a calm and quiet soundtrack, but most importantly, it a really interesting eight minute look at what being a winemaker is all about.

We especially loved the transition from the fields to the lab where winemaker Ernst Storm of Storm Wines transforms from farmer into chemist (wicked name for the Winery and the winemaker, btw).  Ernst bears more than a passing resemblance to Death Cab for Cutie front-man Ben Gibbard (glasses and all).  Once you get past that, you really see the dedication and work that goes into making wine.  The shots from filmmaker Dan Addleson are really....what's the word?  Graceful.  It is well made and certainly interesting to wine nerds like us. Kudos to Dan and his team.



If you check out the K&L Blog post you will see that the film will be screening at the 16th Annual Sonoma International Film Festival, on April 10-14. If you are in Sonoma around that time, know that we are super duper jealous, and you should check it out with an audience.

Keep on tasting!
