The Wine Show - Die wunderbare Welt des Weins

Watching this show during lockdown has been the most escapist treat. Perfect if you're a wine enthusiast or just enjoy seeing the beautiful French countryside. Also just enjoy the banter between hosts.

Season two is upon us and without sounding a complete muppet but the petit Syrah came out of the cupboard really quickly when we saw how completely trashed everyone, specifically James Purefoy was getting. Season one was great, knowledgeable without getting in your face but season 2 has started with a blast. Joe Is getting better and better, this is a guy marked for good things. All the Crew keep things rattling along and you learn stuff along the way. The Guardian review is suggesting that no one has come up with a way of making wine interesting for the ignorant. It's called getting smashed Sam Wollerston, no left handed bottles for you son. Clearly I disagree, great tv, well presented and Channel 5 are wise to invest in this.

Overall the show is very dry with a long finish.

The note on IMDB says it all. These people had fun making this show and it comes out in films. Great!

Just love this show - the relaxed manner between all involved, the banter, the humour, the journeys, the scenery, the wines, learning a lot & having so much fun enjoying the Matthew's friendship & celebrity guests, & Joe does a marvellous job keeping it all together & educating us about & entertaining us with world wines - keep up the seasons - looking firward to seeing more!

I just adore looking at the countryside, watching two mates talk about wine and food. It's simply, incredibly delightful.

Do yourself a favor!

Beautiful places I will never get to go to see brought to view with fun and intelligence. I find myself wanting to drink along with those in the show. Laugh out loud antics entertain while still learning, it's such a joy to watch. Stumbled onto this show because of Matthew Goode, then realized he and Matthew Rhys were in Death comes to Pemberley. Wonderful to see James Purefoy also. Have developed a new appreciation for wine!
