Whether they’re beautifully shot stories or documentaries unveiling wine’s mysteries, wine movies are a brilliant way to learn and appreciate the world of the oenophile.

This is the perfect list for those of us who might, let’s say, have a lot of time on their hands now or in the near future.

There have been a huge amount of them over the years, so we did our best to cover 23 of the best and most relevant for your viewing pleasure.

A Year in Burgundy (2013)

Spend a full year in Burgundy, France’s most legendary wine region. Follow all the trials and tribulations that come with working the soil in a land that’s become almost more myth than reality.

A Year in Champagne (2014)

This followup to A Year In Burgundy covers the winemakers of another French region steeped in mystery: Champagne: bubbly’s hallowed home.

Barolo Boys (2014)

But it’s not all about France. Next we’ve got a documentary that centers on the explosive, boisterous history of Italy’s Barolo region and its fanatical, Nebbiolo-loving winemakers.

Bottle Shock (2008)

Okay, so maybe this movie did wine aficionado Steven Spurrier real dirty, portraying him as an unbelievable snob. And maybe Chris Pine’s wig is absolutely absurd. But it’s still a fun dramatization of the Judgement of Paris, with some genuinely clever (if largely fictional) moments.
