Autumn in the Vineyard

This Hallmark romance centers on two families---the Baldwins and the DeLucas---with a history of feuding. Both are vintners in a valley where they battle every year for recognition of their new vintages.

Frankie Baldwin (Rachael Leigh Cook) and Nate DeLuca (Brandon Penny) dated years ago. When Nate returns to the valley after securing his Ph. D., they discover they both have a financial interest in a local winery. The battle lines are drawn and they decide on a bet to determine who will gain full ownership of the Sorrento Winery.

Cook and Penny are strong leads and the chemistry between them is strong enough to make their love-hate relationship believable. I see that two sequels to this film were made in 2017 and 2019.

A warm hearted Hallmark film here, with two engaging performances from the two leads.

Yes, it's predictable in places, but there aren't too many films these days that can boast as easy-going wholesome entertainment.

I believe this has lead to other 'In The Vineyard' films, and I look forward to seeing these.

The movie is about two childhood friends who are now forced to work in the vineyard until their legal dispute is resolved.

The movie is sweet and cute with the beautiful location where it was shot. The movie is thousand times better than the Netflix rom-coms. The movie is short but well balanced without unnecessary over-acting like most rom-coms, but this movie is very different and well made. The movie even surpassed even some mainstream rom-coms.

The movie from the beginning until the end will keep your face smiling. The good casting of the lead characters overshadows the weaker points of the movie. This movie is an absolute yes to watch for me.

Based on the novel, Autumn In The Vineyard (A St. Helena Vineyard Novel) by Marina Adair, this is a fun and quirky film that is sure to delight It has crime tape, a grape picking competition, betting parents, meddling friends, and one big fire. You can see the thin line between annoyance and love between the 2 main characters. You root for their love but laugh at their ups and downs. It's great to see a real relationship played on TV without technology. Loved it James Welch Henderson Arkansas 4/26/21.
