Floyd Wine Tasting France

- This video provides an excellent introduction to wine tasting. It was a VHS tape, which I believe was a promotional item for Fortant Wines. Although made by the same team as the Channel 5 TV series Floyd Uncorked it is not part of the TV series. The film features Keith Floyd with Jonathan Pedley and is best watched with a glass of wine.
'oops I'm on fire, never mind!' I love this man...
"Now, while you sit back an enjoy your first bottle, let me tell you why I've brought you to the South of France." His delivery is so good.
can't believe i've been watching floyd uncorked for so long and didn't know about this particular video. thanks for posting. made my day.
Me also
@@holmofrur Me too :O)
I love this program, so full of passion and love for good food and wine. What more can you ask for.. Thanks.😊
Keep coming back to this. So good. Floyd was unique and so full of vigour.
This was a joy. I have never seen Keith so relaxed and naturally convivial. He is not putting on a performance. He was having what I am sure he would have described as a jolly good time. By the way, he almost came off that haywain lol.
The description is priceless: "Floyd Uncocked". I'll wager he wasn't expecting that when he signed up for the series. "I say, old boy, that's the unkindest cut of all."
Oops - thank you for pointing out my typing error - well spotted.
I once found a vhs copy of this for 20p in a charity shop..went home via the offie and..Every time they have a slurp, you have a slurp. 👍
Every time they have a slurp, you have a slurp. - definitely a good idea. 😀
Such a nice pace of life back then
You can still find that pace of life in rural France, I have for 19 years.
@@russcattell955i that is what I want,/need . God Bless
....and is best watched with a glass of wine. As if you doubted me? Cheers.
Or two 😊
Jonathan, the master of wine truly enjoyed Floyd's company.
They made a good team.
Love that guy !! he’s pretty much was like let’s get on with it and start drinking 😂😂
THANKS RAY!
Wish they told you which wines specifically they were drinking on this program. Were they affordable or high end wines?
@@LukeSkywalker-io2bh The wines enjoyed on this video were all Fortant de France wines; Cabernet-Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and they are all affordable. We enjoy watching the video with any brand of the 4 varieties, because the characteristics are fairly consistent across brands. Sit back, open the appropriate bottle, pour a glass and enjoy both the wine and the video.
@@RayMcClure Thanks for that mate. Much appreciated. Will have to try the Chardonnay.
@@LukeSkywalker-io2bh 🥂 Cheers
So what was the need for this vs uncorked?! One for UK one for USA?
Floyd Uncorked was a 6 part TV series, this I think was a one off promotional video which was done at the same time. To me this gives a simple, entertaining, introduction to wine tasting which we enjoyed and I hope others do as well.
I do like Fortant Viognier and the wine they serve in my Local is dire, I also don't like drinking alone, so a pint in the pub, and if I have a slurp with Keith and Johnathon that's OK surely?
Definitely
what year was this?
Best guess about 1999.
I’d guess mid 90s, maybe 95/96
Great series . .but lf you're a smoker you probably won't be able to smell or taste it properly .
One of the beautiful consequences of stopping smoking. Cheers!
Amazing ive been all over languedoc now italy done, specifically now puglia
