The Tasting

Synopsis

Hortense has a big heart and no one to share it with except her cat, her embittered mom, and a group of homeless people for whom she prepares a gourmet dinner at the local church every week. While buying a nice bottle of wine, Hortense meets Jacques, a fifty-something, grumpy local cellarman. Eager to see him again, she attends a chaotic wine tasting in Jacques' shop - meeting his best friend who clumsily tries to seduce her, and his new apprentice who turns out to have a rare gift for tasting as well as an unfiltered honesty. As Hortense and Jacques grow closer and closer, their past begins to catch up to them.

Adapted from the popular award winning play and set in a picturesque French town surrounded by grapevines, THE TASTING is delightfully charming story of two lonely souls finding love. This endearing romcom full of light hearted humor and passion for wine will leave audiences with a warm glow.
