Summary
Oz Clarke - renowned wine authority, Francophile and former Wine tasting champion of the World - attempts to reveal the wonder of the world's most complex viniculture to James May - a beer drinker who can only identify a wine only as being nice or nasty. The results are often ugly and embarrassing for Britain. This is what happens when two grown mean spend a month together in a car arguing about who's going to drive and whether or not it is acceptable to eat with your fingers in the Chateau of a French aristocrat. French wine, for many people, is a subject shrouded in mystery and confusion and following Oz and James's Big Wine Adventure, it remains so. Can you make your own wine in a bucket? Should you spit or swallow? And where does this tent pole go?
