Based on Peter Mayle's "A Year in Provence," this is the tale of Englishman Max (Russell Crowe)–a ruthless, workaholic stock trader–who is notified that his nearly-forgotten Uncle Henry (Albert Finney) has died, leaving his Southern France vineyard estate to Max, his sole heir. Max had spent much time at the estate in his youth, and Uncle Henry was one of the few people that Max admired. His plan: sell quickly. But, upon reaching the estate, memories of his happy childhood at the estate give him second thoughts. Problems arise when he finds out that the estate is rundown, the wine is virtually undrinkable, and Christie (Abbie Cornish) arrives on the scene claiming to be Uncle Henry's illegitimate daughter.
