This is a compelling story about an English woman who finds herself running a winery. She learns French and how to make wine while developing friendships with her French neighbors. She ends up earning the respect of the local growers for her tenacity, palate and ultimately her wine making ability. I could not put it down and have given it to others who found it equally moving. It does contain a lot of technical information about wine production, but I found this to be a plus. As the tale unfolded, I studied the photographs included in the book centerpiece.
