Synopsis

Portrait of a Winemaker: John Williams of Frog’s Leap takes a look at this pioneering Napa, California winemaker and his dry farming techniques which increase his soil’s fertility and capacity for water retention, as well as produce more flavorful wines. Water scarcity is one of the major issues facing the world today and this farming method is one man’s thoughtful and economically viable answer. –MVFF

Good short film to accompany a wine tasting, perhaps?
