I really enjoyed this little film. I had never heard of the film before but someone recommended it to me so I gave it a shot. What I found was a good comedy fueled by charm and heart (reminded me a lot of Salmon Fishing in the Yemen). The performances were also good; Rickman does a great job and Bill Pullman gives a really good performance as a Napa winemaker. Wine lover or not, I completely recommend this movie.

Surprisingly entertaining - loved the casting, the story is upbeat - what with hippies and wine snobs all in the same film - and it never drags. Not the kind of movie I typically seek, but I'm glad I caught this one.
