From the March IMZ-Ural newsletter: "Bottle Shock is a movie is based on a true story of a Napa winemaker who beat the French wines during the blind testing in Paris. To our great surprise, one of the main characters drove sidecar Ural across the hills of California wine country all movie long. Even though the events took place in 1976 and the Ural featured was produced around 1996, the movie is great and the Ural looks wonderful. What a perfect match for the story, the location and the characters! We wish we knew whose bike it is and whose idea it was to place it in this movie but what a fantastic job!"
