a good year a good book

Loved the movie, loved the book, wished it had more pictures of the chateau in it.

Winemaking culture comes to life under this treatment

A GOOD YEAR was set in France and celebrates life in a blend of romance and comedy filmed on scene: both fans of the movie and newcomers will find most accessible a recap of the story, blending over a hundred color photos with interviews with authors Ridley Scott and Peter Mayle.
