Following the success of “Cannubi: A Vineyard Kissed by God” and “Cigars: The Heart & Soul of Cuba,” JamesSuckling.com is proud to announce the release of our next film: “The Miracle of Alto Adige”. The first of its kind on the mountainous vine-growing area in Northeast Italy, the 23-minute documentary will premiere at the Sonoma International Film Festival at the end of March.
Hollywood director James Orr, known for his work on such movies as “Three Men and a Baby,” “Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit” and “Mr. Destiny,” shot and edited the production of “The Miracle of Alto Adige.” “I am a wine lover and I wanted the world to understand what a unique place Alto Adige is and how hard it is to make wine there,” says Orr.
Through elaborate drone and helicopter footage, as well as key interviews with JamesSuckling.com’s top local producers, the film explores the region’s unique dynamics of extreme viticulture, family cooperatives, Italian and German cultures, and resilient, passionate winemakers.
We hope you enjoy the trailer!
