RTNew York TimesMar 15, 2018

A slightly tipsy, thoroughly charming documentary about winemaking in post-Soviet Georgia.

Oenophiles may swoon over the delicious native varietals that tease Quinn's palate, but Railsback's thin and disorganized documentary doesn't go down so smoothly.

Robert Abele

RTLos Angeles TimesMar 8, 2018

"Our Blood Is Wine" boasts a fascinating subject, and a commendable desire to redefine the romance of winemaking away from European-bred elitism; unfortunately, it's a haphazard tasting.

The film embraces both its subjects and the audience in a kind of cultural exchange that you rarely find in films like this.
