How true. I am watching this more than 25 years after it came out (May 2024) and I mainly drink Cabernet Sauvignon or Chadornnay blends most of the time.
I noticed she's a bit of a flagellant. I don't know if she does it to disarm, or if she really believes she's worth so little or some other reason. I once heard her categorize herself as a parasite. As far as I know a parasite only takes and gives nothing back. I don't think the wine industry or its audience would agree. I think symbiosis or mutualism is a more accurate description. Super interesting documentary and excellently narrated.
The wine procurer reeks of Tesco/Sainsburys ... that's why their Bordeaux range to this day are generally dead and unremarkable ... wine maker cost cutting had to be made to secure a contract that is 'better than nothing' ...
Loved the series many moons ago, still do now. Wonderful stories, thanks
The greatest wine critic/taster/writer /broadcaster in the world... I love this woman, absolutely wonderful 🍷👍😁
No. Many others are Better.

OMG, I cried when I saw the vineyards being ripped apart. Heartbreaking.

Hey, Jancis. Happy to see more MW's on youtube, will you be uploading tastings and reviews etc. in the future?

What feminin charm did that buyer have? She was utterly loathsome!
I am sure they meant feminine charm to make them shut the hell up while she was tasting 😮💨

The darkness of red wine doesn't imply the thickness of grape skin. Nebbiolo is thick-skinned but its wine is actually light in colour!
Pontification 😊🙏
25:30 This is two women, talking about an issue that only women understand in the 90s. How do you break up with a man.
