Two Pinot Noirs from Santa Barbera, the actual location of the movie, were featured. These were Domaine St. George (Ben Tradevines) and Sanford (Maple Wines), which was featured as the starting point of Miles' & Jack's tour of the vineyards of Santa Barbera. 

Public screenings begin on 24 Feb. Do not miss this multi-award winning but low budget movie that'll pull at the heartstrings of middle-aged winelovers, looking for the perfect wine.
