Classic Movie Pairing

Cool Hand Luke (1967)

Cool Hand Luke (1967). This cool South African Sauvignon Blanc helps to create an easygoing, relaxed mood, which is a nice complement to the cool but rebellious namesake of this 1967 classic. It stars Paul Newman as a free-spirited convict who refuses to let his spirit be broken while serving two years on a Southern chain gang. Directed by Stuart Rosenberg, it also features a standout performance by George Kennedy, who won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his performance as fellow convict, Dragline.

Long Bay Sauvignon Blanc is an exhilarating white wine from South Africa’s Western Cape. The Atlantic’s cool ocean breezes help ripen the grapes in Long Bay to fresh, full-flavored perfection. Pair with practically anything, from cheese to chicken.

The tension between the two men mounts until they finally have a fight in which Dragline beats Luke but is unable to make him give up...
