Bottle Shock(2008)
"In 1976, Steven Spurrier, a sommelier in Paris, comes to the Napa Valley to take the best he can find to Paris for a blind taste test against French wine. He meets Jim Barrett, whose Chateau Montelena is mortgaged to the hilt as Jim perfects his chardonnay. There's strain in Jim's relations with his hippie son Bo and his foreman Gustavo, a Mexican farmworker's son secretly making his own wine. Plus, there's Sam, a UC Davis graduate student and free spirit, mutually attracted to both Gustavo and Bo. As Spurrier organizes the "Judgment of Paris," Jim doesn't want to participate while Bo knows it's their only chance. Barrett's chardonnay has buttery notes and a Smithsonian finish."

What a great movie. I had no idea how passionate people are on how they grow the grapes. I think it's an overall great movie and would recommend it to everyone.

Watching this movie, I've seen the path on what marijuana would look like if legalized. It takes extreme amounts of hard work and dedication in order to make fine wine. It's a passion that most of us here have with the ganja. No corporation would be able to grow the type of marijuana the consumers enjoy most.

Loved that movie. I just saw the previews last night for the first time so I had to watch it. Thanks a lot for sharing, it was great.

I agree with you that wine and cannabis share many of the same qualities. The different kinds are similar to the many strains of weed and I love how each phenotype of either will be slightly (or drastically) different from the rest. I hope that there are similar farmers when cannabis becomes legal. Someone who loves their crop as much (probably more) than the consumer; and loves the crop much more than the money it produces. There are growers out there like that, but sadly legal restraints keep them from sharing their harvest with the world. One can only wait...
