As the series of reviews progress, we gradually learn his backstory: his marriage to a woman named Abby is failing and he is forced to take refuge at the home of his brother, Chadwick, not always with his permission. As of now, he lives in the house of his intern/assistant Dalton, the only other character to ever appear in his videos.

He not only pronounces the name of the wine flawlessly, but he briefly describes the French region and gives a solid, straightforward review of the wine, which he rates highly. [[spoiler:Then it turned out the "aspirin" his roommate had given him earlier was actually Xanax]].

As the series of reviews progress, we gradually learn his backstory: his marriage to a woman named Abby is failing and he is forced to take refuge at the home of his brother, Chadwick, not always with his permission.
Sarcasm and bitterness ooze from all of Vanmeyer's reviews, but the facade never ''quite'' cracks as he soldiers on. He takes requests, which he has often been shown to regret.
By all outward appearances the reviews are ''actually'' an extended performance art piece by an as-yet anonymous creator, an OpenSecret which was definitively confirmed when [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-5q2-Jzv3c a commercial featuring the actor]] surfaced on [=YouTube=].

!!These videos contain examples of:
* {{Catchphrase}}: "Prescott Vanmeyer here, sommeliering from home". (Even when he's not at his own home.)
* TheGhost: His estranged wife Abby and brother Chadwick are never seen.
* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave: He is, presumably, to his brother Chadwick.
* VideoReviewShow: A yuppie fallen on hard times tries to make ends meet by reviewing bottom-shelf booze.
* WaxingLyrical: In his review of Hampton Water Rosé, he liberally quotes Bon Jovi songs (as Jon Bon Jovi runs the brand with his son). Toward the end of the review he drops all subtlety and just starts singing.
