Alan Rickman as Steven Spurrier is introduced to extremely crunchy Kentucky Fried Chicken and the beauty of the northern California wine country. Rickmans voice over waxes poetic about the beauty of the vine and the wine grape. The KFC scene was filmed at Chateau Montelena in Calistoga; the beauty shots were filmed in Sonoma and at the Buena Vista Winery Carneros vineyards.
