America’s Wine: The Legacy of Prohibition
By Carla De Luca Worfolk
Saturday September 26th
Merlot Hall – Napa Valley Expo
The 23rd Napa Sonoma Napa Sonoma Wine Country Film Festival is proud to present the premiere of “America’s Wine: The Legacy of Prohibition"
In 1920, National Prohibition passed with the 18th Amendment to the US Constitution.
This compelling documentary tells the story of how entrepreneurial leaders overcame the constitutional barriers of this era. We meet legendary figures in their last on-camera appearances such as Ernest Gallo, Robert Mondavi and Brother Timothy among others, who formed the “Phoenix Generation” –those who rebuilt the American wine industry from the ashes of illegality into a flourishing global competitor.
