Would you spend five years of your life studying for an exam you only had a five percent chance of passing? That’s what you sign up for when you attempt to become a Master Sommelier. Joining me to discuss this Herculean quest for wine knowledge is Jason Wise, Writer and Director of SOMM, a documentary following four passionate sommeliers attempting to summit wine’s most elusive peak. It’s a film full of drama, intensity, madness, laughter, and the smell of a freshly opened can of tennis balls. (Seriously.)
