Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times 03/15/2018
A slightly tipsy, thoroughly charming documentary about winemaking in post-Soviet Georgia. Go to Full Review
Scott Tobias Variety 03/14/2018
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. Go to Full Review
Robert Abele Los Angeles Times 03/08/2018
"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. Go to Full Review
Steven Prokopy Third Coast Review 06/02/2020
The film embraces both its subjects and the audience in a kind of cultural exchange that you rarely find in films like this. Go to Full Review
Louis Proyect Counterpunch.org 03/13/2018
A great introduction to Georgian culture that is as rich and a beautiful as the country itself. Notwithstanding Stalinism and post-Stalinist economic malaise, the nation lives. Go to Full Review
Ciara Wardlow Nonfics (Substack) 03/09/2018
A documentary with far more on its mind than fermented grape juice, though it sometimes seems at a loss for what to say and when to say it." Go to Full Review
