Behind the Scenes with Wine Critic Matt Kettmann

baba2films presents "Be Careful What You Wish For," about our senior editor's gig as a wine critic.

Though he's mighty busy as senior editor of The Santa Barbara Independent, Matt Kettmann also reviews more than 150 wines a month and covers the Central Coast for Wine Enthusiast magazine. This short film gives a glimpse of what that unique, often overwhelming job entails.
