Experience A YEAR IN BURGUNDY with French wine importer Martine Saunier as your guide. The film is in four season-sections, and plays out against that backdrop: spring showers, drought, heat wave, hail and storms, harvest moons and the damp cold of winter. Each vintage is a bottled piece of history of a very specific year, with its particular weather pattern, its crises and its triumphs. In the film, we get to know our half-dozen wine-makers: they are artists, whose personalities shape the flavor and style of the wines they lovingly craft. There is joy, fear, anxiety, triumph, and laughter in their experiences. This is a year that went into the bottle and onto film. This is our capsule. The grapes grow. The grapes die away. What is left in the frame is a way of life.
