"The film lovingly describes the creation of the 2011 vintage: a poignant vision of the heritage of family winemaking."
— La Revue de Vin de France
"The film’s triumph is to humanize everything it touches"
— Decanter Magazine
"A luxurious and quite beautifully shot chronicle of a single vintage"
— LA Weekly
"It turns out wine making is really interesting… not just for the wealthy. Because I mean, what IS it that makes good wine? The same question could be asked of any art"
