    • Synopsis
    • Over the course of his life, 82-year-old Frenchman Michel Chasseuil has collected no fewer than 50,000 bottles of wine. This self-taught wine collector opens the doors of his cellar, where a veritable treasure trove rests. A lifetime's work, crisscrossing the back roads of vineyards and auction houses in search of the rarest bottles.
