5.0 out of 5 stars
Wine as an Art,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Blood into Wine (DVD)
I've been waiting for the DVD release for months since there wasn't a screening in a theater close to me. Let me say, it was well worth the wait! First, the disclaimers: I rated this DVD with 5 stars because I am a fan of Maynard and a huge fan of wine. I enjoy both, and see wonderful art in both. I think if I was strictly a Maynard fan and not one of wine, I still would have enjoyed the film. Conversely, if I was only a fan of wine and not or Maynard, or didn't even know who he was, I don't think I would have enjoyed it as much. The wine 'education' was brief and not complex at all. If you've got a reasonable knowledge of winemaking I doubt you'll learn anything new - other than the development of the Arizona wineries.
All that said, if you know of Maynard you know he's an incredible and dark artist, elusive and deep. When participating in his music, the listener catches a glimpse of his soul. He conveys this same emotion while learning about his involvement in the other art of making wine. Though very much a science (most of the local winemakers I know have a background in chemistry), the success of a wine lies in the art. It evokes emotion if it's a good one. It's forgettable if it's mediocre. Just like music. This film does a fantastic job of showing the similarities of music and wine and the deep appreciation of both that Maynard has. He definitely came out of his comfort zone to make this movie, and I think fans of his (and wine for that matter) are lucky that he did.

Great Wine/Music Documentary!,

This review is from: Blood into Wine (DVD)
Maynard really stepped out of his comfort zone to make this movie! I saw it during the premiers and it was great. They give enough information about wine to keep it interesting and it was really funny too. I recommend this for all levels of wine drinkers as well as Tool/Perfect Circle/Puscifer fans. Mila Jovovich rocks in here too! She's got a great, interesting voice!

Love me some Maynard, loved this video. Even if you don't appreciate tool, you can appreciate what goes into the wine making process through this.
