to The Ways of Wine, Charlie Arturaola, a real-life sommelier revisits his
character who experienced a fall from grace since the original film. This time
around, Charlie has to work his way back up to regain his respected name and
the forgiveness of his wife. A portrait of self-discovery with a sharp
element of comedy, “The Duel of Wine” is a thought-provoking love letter to the

The film has been called “a fictionalized documentary” as it mirrors the life of this charismatic wine aficionado. But don’t let the comedy element fool you. Charlie Arturaola is a renowned expert in everything that has to do with wine. He is the president of the Miami based Grappolo Blu Inc. where he lectures, conducts educational tastings, acts as an expert appraiser for insurance companies, consults with foreign importers and mentors new members of the wine community. His fluency in five languages has taken him from Brazil to Bordeaux and from Montefalco to Patagonia, allowing him to deliver his passion for wine in Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese and English.
