Description: In these outtakes from a 1970s news feature for San Antonio’s KMOL-TV (now WOAI-TV), a sommelier explains how hybridizing pest-resistant Texas mustang grapes with French grapes saved the French wine industry in the late-1800s. He practices delivering his lines while handling props, with the director giving instructions off-camera.
