Sideways Uncorked (eBook, PDF)

The Perfect Pairing of Film and Wine

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Two stories unspool in Sideways Uncorked: the story behind Alexander Payne's modern movie classic adapted from a most unlikely source-an unpublished novel by a burnt-out ex-filmmaker and wine connoisseur Rex Pickett-and the world of Pinot Noir (and Merlot) winemaking before and after Sideways was released. For as Kirk and Mira Advani Honeycutt show, the movie was a pop-culture phenomenon that dramatically impacted the wine industry. Sideways Uncorked offers a tour of the lush Santa Barbara wine country that forms the iconic backdrop to Sideways, tracing the effect the story eventually had there and elsewhere. With ample narrative and special features (such as a wine lineup of recommendations from various wine regions), this is a one-of-a-kind illustrated book that will dazzle the palate of oenophiles and cinephiles alike.
