Fun and funny doc about Merlot and the wine industry in general

This doc is great! Very Werner Herzog/Christopher Guest-esque, in the best way. You can tell it's maybe a first time production, but the people/characters interviewed and the jovial nature of the film are appreciated. I work in the wine industry and was particularly interested in seeing a take on the downfall of Merlot after the backlash towards the varietal post Sideways. The film offers thoughts and insights from various wine makers and professionals from various wine producing regions, particularly those known for Merlot, and melds together some thoughts and ideas about the varietal's potential future. Highly recommend!
