Top Gear's overgrown boy racer, scruff bag and beer drinker James May knows nothing about wine. Award winning wine writer and critic Oz Clarke, on the other hand, is one of the world's leading authorities on wine. The first season sees TV's oddest couple drive through some of France's most beautiful wine regions, while the second season sees them travel to California USA to taste what the Americans have on offer. Oz's mission is to educate and excite James about wine.
