Prior to watching I expected him to explain that Merlot is shit, but there was nothing like that. It even sounded like a subjective reason (could be that his ex wife drank it etc and now he hates it after divorce, just random idea to explain what I mean by him not saying that it was crapy wine) for that.
So it is surprising (decline of sales due to that). On the other hand - some people are sheep, some easily influenced by others and, apparently, by the movies, so maybe not so surprising.
