Wine Zingers

Did you know that Francis Ford Coppola, best known as an award-winning filmmaker also happens to make wine? I gather he's been doing this for around 25 years on his Napa Valley Estate, so I could see where this is something that other people know already. But I only discovered it by the merest chance. I was looking for a good wine quote and I found one by Mr. Coppola himself.

He says the two professions of filmmaking and winemaking are almost the same and that both depend on quality source material and both take a lot of time to perfect. The big difference according to Coppola: "Today's winemakers still worry about quality."

Ouch! Nice one.
