A Major Disappointment
Bea Swanson
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Tayyab Torres
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Frances Chung
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

I enjoyed both movies and I truly hope more will be made. For some reason I like those two actors together.

This movie is a totally unnecessary sequel. It's completely boring to anyone who isn't running a winery. Their business and financial problems are so mundane. Not much romance drama or anything else.The scenery doesn't even look like Napa.Don't bother.

A pale sequel to the very good Autumn in the Vineyard. The same beautiful landscapes without any of the interesting suspenseful plot points and multidimensional characters of the original. Frankie and Nate are trying to keep their new venture afloat but have conflicting management styles and suffer from a lack of communication. At the end they learn to work together. Thanks to a miracle at the end their vineyard is saved. Yawn.

I think the biggest problem with this sequel is that it tried to do too much, but maybe the acting and direction weighed it down as well.If I heard one more "The wine isn't ready yet" after Frankie tasted it, I was going to scream.This sequel adds a romance between Nate's brother, Marco, and Frankie's cousin, Lexy. It's a nice enough side story with some good chemistry. This might have been the best part of the movie, or at least the easiest for the viewer to identify with.For most of the movie, Frankie and Nate just weren't clicking. Even when they did click, it seemed strained when they definitely should have been nothing but happy.The fate of Sorrento Vineyard seemed to rock back and forth as more issues were added to the mix that affected their financial future. I think it was too much for the movie to handle. They seemed to bounce from one issue to another without really giving the viewer time to absorb any of them.As much as I liked Frankie and Nate in the first movie, I just couldn't get invested in their relationship in the sequel.
