Have you started making videos with the iPhone 3G-S yet? Wine sales and marketing agency Wilson Daniels Ltd. has, taking their iPhones and other cameras out into vineyards around the world for the second volume of online wine films in the Wilson Daniels Films documentary series. Bret Lyman, filmmaker and proprietor of B.Napa Studio, who created the Wilson Daniels Films series last year is back this summer to expand the series of short films to include California and Oregon producers. Wilson Daniels fans, friends and followers can experience the filmmaking process by watching outtakes, reviewing scene shots, and picking their favorite landscape panoramics and people shots through Facebook and Twitter. Wine enthusiasts visiting Napa Valley and Oregon's Willamette Valley during film dates can also attend filming activities like a sunrise balloon ride with the filmmaker and winery owner, grape harvesting with the picking crews and editing parties at tasting rooms. Those interested in participating are encouraged to join the Facebook group for Wilson Daniels Wines or follow them on Twitter.

Filming will occur August 17–18 at Ponzi Vineyards and August 20–21 at WillaKenzie Estate. October filming dates for Clos Pegase and Silverado Vineyards will be announced in early September at Wilson Daniels Wines on Facebook.

Bret Lyman, a Napa Valley-based filmmaker has created an interesting series of short documentary films on the vineyards, wineries and principals of Wilson Daniels Ltd.'s French and Hungarian properties. The individual films will premiere online over the next six weeks, beginning with the October 2, 2008, debut of "The Renaissance of Tokaji," showcasing Royal Tokaji. Wineries Lyman profiled in the series of Wilson Daniels films include: Royal Tokaji of Tokaj; House of Champagne Delamotte and House of Champagne Salon of Champagne; Domaine Faiveley of Burgundy; Domaine Leflaive of Burgundy; Domaine Pierre Morey of Burgundy; Domaine Philippe & Vincent Jaboulet of northern Rhône; and Domaine Marc Kreydenweiss of Alsace and southern Rhône.

The films can all be downloaded as well as viewed online. The goal of the series is to give U.S. wine lovers a look at the Wilson Daniels properties in Europe and foster interest in their wines. Each mini-documentary explores the history, setting, and distinct personality of the properties through lush imagery and interviews with winery principals. It's like a five minute wine vacation. Check out the trailer above for a small taste.
