One of the more interesting moments for us here at Shark Diver was the wine order we had to put together for a recent film shoot in the Bahamas.Turns out the entire crew was French, and stereotypes aside, they loved their wines.
Typically when we put a shark shoot together we get calls for standard shark gear, cages, chum, cameras, what you would expect for a few days at sea with big sharks.
This unexpected 12 case wine order was a chance for me personally to showcase some talents that only Shark Diver seems to possess in the film and television world...in depth knowledge of good California wines.
Needless to say, of the entire film project, this took the most time and needed the most attention. After all there's no way on god's green earth our California based company was going to ship "subpar wines" to a bunch of Frenchmen who would be at sea for 10 days in the middle of the Grand Banks, Bahamas.
The final word? They liked our wines.

What a pity I missed that ! As a french guy, I definitely would have enjoy these two pleasures on earth: meeting with a great white shark and drinking good wines onboard...
Do you know from which area in France they came from ?
