- You're too slow.

[gentle music]
Sam, Sam.
[dial clicking]
[person screaming]
- Hey, Emily, I got you, okay?
- How are we gonna find our way out?
- First, this is for you.
Mom gave this to me.
She said I'm always safe when I wear it.
It's gonna keep you safe, okay?
Now don't let go of my hand till we're out, got it?
Mom, mom?
[dramatic music]
[gentle music]
[object whirring]
[footsteps walking]
- Where are you off to?
- Just going on a date.
- When am I gonna meet this new suitor of yours?
- New suitor, dad, it's the 21st century.
He's my boyfriend.
- Ah, boyfriend, right, okay.
Well, you guys have been spending a lot of time together.
I think it's time I meet this boyfriend.
- Yes, you should, and I want you to.
There's just some things, it's little complicated.
Ooh, goodness, I'm gonna be late.
All right, I love you, Dad.
- Complicated how?
- Nope, no, no, no, no.
Tony, why did we hire the local preschoolers
to design these labels?
These labels are awful.
I might as well fire the kids
and finger paint these labels on myself.
- You know, it would I help if you gave me some guidance.
- Guidance?
You know how when you try my Norton,
you get these notes of black cherry?
Or if I blend the Norton with the Chambourcin,
it curbs the acidity,
giving it more fruit-forward taste with a dry finish?
That's what these labels need to feel like.
I mean, do any of these labels
make you think black cherry?
I mean, come on, this isn't rocket science.
What do I even pay you for?
- I'm the co-owner and technically I do payroll,
so I pay you.
- You're missing the point.
I need you to fully realize my vision.
- Our vision, Parker.
- Okay, I get enough frustration from the staff.
If you can't get this, then maybe we should,
I don't know, I'll figure something else out.
I'll put you anywhere else if you can't do this.
We'll pull even more numbers.
- I need to know what are these charges, well?
- Toys.
Or that cherry.
Every kid deserves a toy for Christmas,
even if they suck at finger painting.
Besides, we can use that as a write-off.
[phone dinging]
- Hey, listen, Parker, it's late, okay?
Let's table this till tomorrow, huh?
[gentle music]
[paper flapping]
[upbeat music]
[people chattering]
[gentle music]
- Hi, my love, I'm here.
- Well, I'm glad you could make it.
- Are you kidding me?
You're the highlight of my day.
I wouldn't be anywhere else,
but I did think Parker would never let me leave.
- [Emily] That guy is so difficult.
- Anyway, did you order already?
- Oh, just a glass of wine.
- [Waiter] Two Nortons.
One Reserve Cellar for the lady.
One Hermannhof for the gentleman.
- Right on time.
[person laughing]
- You spoil me.
- Are we ready to order?
- Can you actually give us a couple minutes?
- Of course.
Uh, with tonight's wine, might I suggest the steak?
- Thank you so much.
- You know, it feels naughty
drinking competition's wine.
- It does, doesn't it?
[person laughing]
Can I be honest?
I really don't understand the whole rivalry thing.
I mean, you need diversity to inspire innovation, right?
- I'll toast to that.
- Right?
- Yeah. - Yes.
[glass clinking]
You know, it is pretty good.
- That is, but I think I like yours more.
- Oh, you admit it.
- I don't know know.
[gentle music]
Oh no.
- What?
- Emily, hon, can you get under the table?
- No.
- Please get under the table.
- No, not again.
- Please, get under the table, please.
- Great, last time.
- Yes, thank you.
[person coughing]
- Ah, there you are.
I think I figured it out.
We have to approach this whole thing differently.
Hear me out.
- Please, have a seat.
- I say we treat this like a pirate's treasure map.
We have the edges torn a little bit,
but the color palette has to match the flavor profile,
you know what I mean?
Oh, thank you.
- How do you even know I was here?
- I tracked your phone.
- What?
- You did what?
- It's a company phone.
I have to know where you're at at all times.
How'd you know I was coming?
And why'd you get the 2020?
- Well, that's all they had.
- Nonsense, the 2020's vastly inferior to the 2021.
Where's the waiter?
I want this removed now.
Excuse me.
- Parker, brother?
- [Parker] Which one's yours?
- Everybody likes the 2020
as well as they like the 2021 and the 2022.
You make good wine, let it rest.
- Most people wouldn't know good wine from grape juice.
- What are you drinking?
- Just Norton.
[person spluttering]
- Wait a minute, this is a Hermannhof.
Why are you drinking this?
- 'Cause I just felt like drinking Hermannhof.
It's quite good actually.
- While I question your taste,
guess it's not a bad idea to know your competition,
even if George is a total has-been.
- Has-been?
- May I take your order?
- Yes, let's talk about this right here.
This vintage, the 2020, it's not as good as the 2021.
Could you please not serve it here anymore?
- Wait, what?
- That's not an answer, look, this is a local place.
I'd hate to think the locals
aren't getting the best from our winery.
- I'm sorry.
- Don't be sorry, be better.
Could I just talk with a manager?
As I was saying, Hermannhof's old news,
George is washed up,
and if it weren't for us buying his grapes,
then he'd probably be out of.
- [Emily] That's enough.
How dare you talk about my father like that?
- What, are you spying on us?
Wait, Tony, what is she doing here?
- Emily.
- I am his girlfriend.
Seriously, I am your girlfriend,
and you wanna talk about this later?
- You're dating the princess of that has-been winery?
- Has-been, how dare you?
- Tony, I need to speak with you outside right now.
- Apologies, the manager's left.
- Forget it, forget it, forget it.
- With this guy.
- Get the steak au poivre.
It'll pair better with that below-average wine.
- I'll make it up to you.
- Have a good night.
- I'm so sorry.
- What?
- I am so sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
[person sighing]
- What are you thinking?
This is idiotic, moronic and simultaneously insane.
- Yeah, no, Parker, but I really care about her, man.
- Forget it, you know the deal.
Dump her or you're out.
- That contract was stupid.
Why can't I be with a girl that I like?
- Because the girl you like is the competition
and that jeopardizes our winery.
- This is not classified military intelligence, Parker.
It's just wine making.
- Oh, just wine making.
- [Tony] And you know, the only one
who cares about competition is you.
- End it with her or you're out.
- Got it.
- See you in the morning.
Don't be late.
- [Tony] Right.
- I seriously do not know how much more
of your wicked stepbrother I can take.
- Right, yes, I don't know what to do.
- You should not have to put up with this.
How are you putting up with this?
- He's family.
[gentle music]
And besides, you know how much the winery means to him.
- I know.
And I would never wanna get in the way of your dreams.
I just, I wish you hadn't put that stupid clause
in your contract, baby.
I mean, okay, we gotta strategize on this.
There's gotta be something we can do.
- Yeah.
[Emily sighing]
You're right.
- Can you send him on a extended trip
somewhere very far away?
- But then he's just gonna come back.
- I got it.
- What?
- It is so obvious.
- What's obvious?
- Okay, what is one of the only things
that can make someone change?
- Therapy?
- No, not therapy, something so much better.
But we're gonna need help, come on.
[upbeat music]
[plane whirring]
[birds chirping]
[machine beeping]
[people chattering]
- [Speaker] This is my bag.
- [Speaker 2] That's definitely my bag.
- No, it's not, this is my bag.
- This is most definitely my bag.
I bought it right before we left.
- Well, maybe you left your bag at home.
- This is my bag.
- [Speaker 2] Are you kidding?
- How many times?
- Hi, what seems to be the problem?
- He's trying to take my bag.
- Okay, I get it.
There's tons of bags that look alike.
Is there a possibility
that one of you guys could be mistaken?
We can just look at the luggage tag.
- The tag must have gotten ripped off.
- Well, we can just open it up
and get this fixed really quickly.
- No, all right, fine.
[footsteps walking]
- What about this bag?
This belong to one of you?
- I'm so sorry.
- This is my suitcase.
- Thank you so much.
- You guys are welcome.
And I know traveling can be stressful, so happy holidays.
- You too.
[people chattering]
[footsteps walking]
[gentle music]
[zip whirring]
- What, 10 missed calls?
[phone ringing]
Hey.
- Sam, I need you to come home.
- [Sam] I'm working.
- You are always working.
- All right, well, I just happened
to land in St. Louis, so what's going on?
[upbeat music]
It's like not much has changed.
[car whirring]
[footsteps walking]
[person gasping]
- Sam.
- [Sam] Emily.
- Hi.
[person laughing]
- Oh, I missed you so much.
- Oh, me too, I am so glad you're home.
Oh, dad went out for a run.
- Okay, I'll see you when he get here, what's going on?
- Let me tell you.
- Okay.
- Oh, I've missed you.
[door whirring]
It's just so complicated, and the thing is,
to me, it's really frustrating
because emotionally I'm ready, you know?
I'm 100% ready to go public
with our relationship, but we can't.
- Because you're the competition.
- Yes.
- Okay, what does this have to do with me?
- Well, I was thinking that you could distract Parker
or possibly date.
[person laughing]
- Date Parker?
You literally just went on a rant
about that he's such a jerk,
and now you want me to date him.
- Yes, I did, I did do that,
but I'm telling you, Tony and I,
we cannot officially be seen together.
Otherwise, he will lose his shares in the company,
and that man has worked so hard, Sam.
- And?
- And, okay, if you do this, Parker will be distracted,
number one, and he will also be dating the competition,
number two, so if both of them are dating competition,
then it really makes the whole thing null and void, right?
I mean, it's kind of perfect.
- And what makes you think he's even gonna like me?
- Is that a serious question?
Sam, everybody loves you.
I have all the faith in the world in my sister.
[people laughing]
- Hi.
- Oh my god.
- Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.
- Sam, this is my boyfriend, Tony.
- Hi.
- Boyfriend, yeah, just heard so much about you.
Does Dad know?
- No, but I'm, I'm sure it'll be just fine.
- And he definitely won't fire you.
- So Tony, your stepbrother really needs
to sign off on your dating life?
- Yeah, I mean, basically we have this agreement
that we drew up when we first went into business.
It lists reasons for termination,
forfeiting of shares in the winery.
One of them is putting the company in jeopardy,
and Parker thinks I'm doing that by dating Emily.
- Wow.
- You don't have to do anything crazy.
We just need you to, you know, run interference.
- Take him on a date or two.
- Yeah, I mean, he's got a one-track mind,
so we think that a little bit of romance
will make him less.
- Persnickety, petulant, perturbed.
I don't know.
He's actually, he's pretty much just awful.
Yeah, he's awful, sorry.
- Okay, and this is the best idea you two came up with?
- It's great.
- So you can't date Emily until I date Parker.
- Yeah.
- I wanted to deal with difficult people,
I would just stick to my day job, you know?
- No, I mean, he's a good person.
He's just shrewd when it comes to the winery.
- Look, Sam, Tony and I are, we are so in love.
I mean, really, like, I'm crazy about this guy, okay?
But the truth is
is that we can't be together unless Parker changes,
so I am really needing my big sister.
- No.
[Emily whimpering]
No, no, no, that's cheating, don't make that face.
Do not make that, she does this all the time.
Okay, okay, fine, fine, I will try.
- Okay.
- Under one condition.
If you do have kids, you have to name one of them after me.
- Deal.
- Deal, you heard that?
- Well played.
- All right, where do I find this Parker guy?
[gentle music]
[door banging]
[person typing]
[gentle music]
Excuse me, I was hoping to speak to the winemaker.
- Yes, that's me, but if you'd like to do a tasting,
you can speak with that woman by the counter.
- I wanna speak with you.
- Me?
- I was wondering what inspired you
to make your Norton Chambourcin blend,
the one with and without oak.
I was surprised at how much I like
the non-oak version better.
- You like the Archer's Red more than the Crossbow?
- I thought I would like the oak version better,
but this one has the plum and cherry notes,
and then it's also super sweet with that spicy finish.
I loved it.
- Most palates aren't sharp enough
to discern the difference.
Are you a sommelier?
- No, I love wine, but I'm not an expert.
- Well, you're probably better than most of my staff.
- Years of practice.
- Really, what's that mean?
- I'm Samantha.
- Parker.
- Nice to meet you.
[wine splashing]
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, hey, hey, hey.
You're doing it wrong, excuse me.
- Well, we just finished the tasting
and they just wanted.
- That white won't be appreciated
for its subtle notes after tasting the reds.
Guys, we're gonna get you some water and crackers.
- On it.
- So that you could really appreciate our latest vino.
It'll help you cleanse your palate.
- Is this a full-bodied rose?
- Yes.
- You don't see a lot of these in the States.
So Parker, it's Parker, right?
- Yeah.
- What about that private tour you promised me?
- I don't do tours.
- Come on, it says right here
you have a proprietary cold press process.
I don't even know what that is,
but I'm sure you could explain it to me.
- Yeah, it's simple.
We cool down our harvested grapes prior to fermentation.
- Can you show me?
- Okay, follow me.
- Oh, you're welcome.
- [Parker] So are you from around here?
- [Sam] From everywhere, flight attendant.
- [Parker] Eh, must be nice to travel.
- [Sam] Tasted wines from all over the world.
- Well, the wine here in Missouri's a little different
from what you'd find in other places like California.
- Really?
- Our grapes have to be heartier
to deal with the wide ranges of temperature,
humidity, frost and floods.
- Is that why the Norton wine is here in Missouri?
- Correct.
The Norton grape is less finicky
and produces a nice full-bodied dry red wine.
We also have a Chardonel,
which is a blend of the Chardonnay grape with a Seyval.
- Is it buttery like Chardonnay?
- Fruit forward, but dry.
Some people like it better than the Chardonnay.
It's got a superior wine quality to it,
while also having high productivity and cold-hardiness.
- I take it most people don't see this part of the tour?
- I've been wanting to add it to the tour,
but as you can see, the climate has to stay
within a certain temperature for the wine.
- [Sam] You got it.
- So those over there will be bottled later this week,
and these over here will be aging
in stainless on oak for the next few years.
- You said you just bottled some whites.
Can you show me how you bottle them?
- Aren't you nosy?
- What?
- Sure you're not a spy?
- No, I'm just really interested in all this stuff, so.
- It is pretty interesting, huh?
- I love what I do, but to answer your question,
we use a mobile bottler.
Helps cut overhead costs,
and I don't have to deal with the equipment.
- Smart, we should be using that.
- What's that?
- Oh, nothing, nothing.
[gentle music]
- So do you want to try an early tasting?
- From the tanks?
- That's right.
- Yeah.
- They haven't fully matured yet, but
[wine splashing]
[gentle music]
I think it's coming along.
Let me know what you think.
So?
- It's good.
There's like pepper notes on black cherry, no, plum, right?
[person laughing]
- Are you sure you're not a sommelier?
- If I was, I'd be able to tell you
the year of your grapes, and sadly I can't.
- We'll just have to have you try some more.
[alarm buzzing]
- Ah, excuse me.
I have a delivery, I'll be right back.
[upbeat music]
George, how's it going?
- [George] I got four pallets out in the truck for you.
- All right, let me radio the team.
I'll notify them right away.
Pope is in the Vatican, boys and girls.
It's gotta eat you up a little to know
that I win more awards with your grapes than you do.
- Wine is wine, I'm just happy we can all do what we love.
- George, Hermannhof's been the leader
in Herman for generations.
It's gotta be hard to see
some new kids winning the C. McWilliams Award
and the Senator's Cup these past few years.
- We lost to this guy?
- Well, Parker, without challenges,
we can't better ourselves.
- It's a good philosophy, if you can apply it.
Hey, I hope you bring your A game
to this year's Christmas blender.
Though that may have been your legacy, soon it'll be mine.
- Whatever you say.
- See you at the city council meeting tomorrow.
- [George] Yep.
[door whirring]
- [Sam] What was that?
- That was the legendary wine maker at Hermannhof.
I used to look up to him.
- What happened?
- Couldn't keep up with the times.
Tastes change, people change.
If I win this year's local blender.
- Blender?
- Oh, it's a red blend holiday competition.
If I win, we will finally become
the most award-winning winery in Hermann.
- You love being the best, don't you?
- I accept nothing less.
- Wow, well, would you look at the time?
This has been educational.
Thank you so much, but I'm gonna have to go.
- Hey, look, I don't really make new friends easily,
but I really enjoyed spending time with you.
Would you wanna talk more about wine at a later date?
- Sure.
- How will I find you?
- Don't worry, I'll find you.
[upbeat music]
He's pompous, he's conceited.
He just talks about himself, you should have heard him.
He's on and on and on, it was nauseating.
- Tried to warn you.
- I get it.
He's good looking, but that's probably about it,
and what is this
about us selling our grapes to Reserve Sellers?
- Well, Reserve Sellers does things differently
than a lot of other wineries.
They outsource parts of their process
to keep their overhead down, which is actually
a really great idea when you think about it
because if you don't have to focus on growing the grapes
and the bottling, you can focus on the actual wine.
- That's exactly what Parker likes.
- You see his genius.
- He's still a jerk.
- [Emily] Sometimes those two things go hand in hand.
- I don't know, I don't think I can soften this guy up.
- Well, if anyone can, you can.
- Not this one.
He's worse than my first class passengers.
- That is bad.
- It's terrible.
- [Emily] Dad.
- [Dad] Hey.
- Hey, dad.
- Sam.
Wow, you're a.
- Surprise.
- Hi, honey.
- Hi, Dad.
- We missed you at Thanksgiving.
- Yeah, I was stuck in New York.
- Ah, yeah.
Well, your sister made the cranberry sauce
and it was as good as your mom's.
- Can we talk?
- Can it wait till tomorrow?
Honey, I've had a day
and then we've got another one tomorrow with the.
- Christmas.
- Christmas Blender.
- Yeah.
- We can talk in the morning.
- Sure.
- Welcome home.
[gentle music]
Okay, you girls don't stay up too late.
- Wow, new record, made it a whole day.
- What do you mean?
Don't play dumb, you know.
- It's the same fight every time I come home.
- Well, you could come home more often.
- We would just fight more.
- Sam, you guys really need to work it out.
We're family, we're supposed to stick together.
- You tell him that?
[person laughing]
- Do you remember when I made this for you?
- I do, how old were you, five?
- [Emily] Yes.
- [Sam] It's pretty cute.
- [Emily] It's the cutest.
- Oh, hey.
- Good morning, dad.
- I wasn't sure you were still an early riser.
- I'm a flight attendant.
I have to be at the airport
at four in the morning sometimes.
- Is this for me?
Bless you.
Oh, not too shabby.
I missed your coffee.
- I think I'm just a little bit more patient
when it comes to brewing it than you are.
- Oh, is that what it is?
[person laughing]
- Dad, why didn't you tell me about reserve sellers?
- What about them?
- I don't know, that they're kicking our butts.
- Ah, honey, you can't stay champs forever.
That boy genius makes good wine.
Besides, I was never the wine maker.
Your mom was.
At least our Nortons are still the best, huh?
- We can take this guy.
[gentle music]
- You gonna come home and help?
- Yeah.
- No, I didn't think so.
Would it really kill you just to stay a little longer?
- What about the Christmas Blender dad?
I can make a blend that'll get us back on top.
We have the talent, we have the grapes.
We just have to think outside the box.
- I don't think so.
- Why not?
- The Christmas Blend was your mom's specialty.
- And even mom knew that we had to change the blend
every year depending on the harvest set.
I don't know how many times I have to say this to you.
- We don't change the Christmas blend.
- Dad.
- We do not change your mother's Christmas blend.
You got it?
- Yeah.
- Now, if you really wanna help,
you can help me get these boxes outta the truck.
- Oh, hey Parker, there you are.
I just wanted to remind you
about the Chamber of Commerce meeting tonight.
- Oh, I know, are you joining me?
- Miss a chance to see you yell at the chamber
for some obtuse reason,
I wouldn't miss it with the world, bro.
You know our booth place last year was bogus, right?
Could you care that?
- No it wasn't.
- Yeah, it was.
- No it wasn't.
- Yes it was.
- No it wasn't.
- Yes it was.
- [Dad] Well, I see you didn't forget
how we do things around here.
- Dad, remember when Emily and I
used to play down here when you mom used to work?
- I remember, you girls used to love
to play hide and seek when your mom
would work on her blends.
Those were good times.
- Yeah.
- Okay, so this, this is my batch for the Christmas Blender.
- Should we give it a taste?
- Ah, I've got that Chamber of Commerce thing
I need to get to, but.
- Yeah, no, no you go.
- You wanna come?
Your sister's gonna be there.
- No, it's not my world anymore, dad.
- Yeah.
Well, it was worth a shot.
I'll see you.
[gentle music]
[footsteps walking]
- Wish you were still here mom.
Looks like you were the only one
that could get through to Dad.
- Hey, Samantha, hey.
- [Sam] What the heck are you doing here?
- Sorry.
- More importantly, how did you get in?
- Oh, I have a key, Emily gave me a key
so I can just have it from the parking.
- Okay, you have a key.
- I just wanted to give you this.
- Before heading over to the chamber meeting.
- Chamber of Commerce meeting, you too?
Must be the hot ticket in town.
- What?
- Nevermind.
- This is everything you need to know about Parker.
- What is this?
This is a dossier.
This is like borderline spy craft.
- Dossi-what?
No, no, this is everything.
All the information I thought you'd want on my stepbrother.
He likes, his dislikes.
Favorite movies, music, TV shows.
- Wait, wait, wait, wait.
He doesn't like dogs.
- Yeah, no.
- Okay.
All right, well, next time maybe you can just email me.
- I should have done that.
- Hey, it's okay.
I got some reading to do.
Wait, and I gotta run.
- Okay, don't get lost.
- [Tony] Yes.
[upbeat music]
[people chattering]
- Hi.
- Sorry I'm late.
- It's okay, no worries.
- Am I too casual?
- Dad, you look great.
- These things make me so nervous.
- Just fine.
[person running]
- Where were you?
- Oh, I had to swing by the printers.
- And how do they look?
- No, I didn't get them.
I was hurrying to get here.
- What you got?
- We've been talking about this for weeks.
How did you not get them?
Why did you get them?
- Okay, welcome.
And thank you for joining us, as you know,
this is the final planning meeting
for the Kris Kringle market
and the Christmas Blender.
I just wanna go through and wrap up
some last minute details for both events.
Please go to your itinerary and let's review.
Yes, Mr. Williams.
- Are you gonna announce the prize for the wine contest?
- Yes, I can go ahead and do that.
Yeah, let's go ahead.
I know a lot of you are very anxious about it.
As you know, the winner of the wine competition
obviously is gonna have great bragging rights
and distributors be fighting over representing your wine.
However, this year, the city is going to be giving away
a very special prize to the winner of the Christmas Blender.
One acre of Norton grapes,
including the planting of the vines in the spring.
- Wow.
- That's huge.
- I know, I know, I know.
- That is huge.
- Wow.
- Of course, the red blends will be judged
according to the Davis system.
[phone whirring]
[person sighing]
[gentle music]
- That is one serious price.
[phones whirring]
- Okay, Debbie Downer.
- What?
- Oh, no, nothing.
- But don't forget, there's audience voting.
So I recommend you get out there and spread Christmas cheer
and you promote your wines, so let's get back to work.
Everybody look at number one on the itinerary.
Okay, booth placement.
I know some of you were upset
about your placement last year.
[upbeat music]
- Hey, great to see you too.
- Take this.
And read the.
- You weren't talking to that Hermannhof girl, were you?
- No, Parker.
- Hey honey, you ready?
Let's go.
- Good.
Because we have to temperature check those reds.
- At this time of the night?
- Especially at this time of the night.
What kind of question is that?
- Do you see this note Tony wrote me, so romantic.
- Oh, while you're on cloud nine,
I'm reading about the other guy.
- All right, love to hear it.
What have we got?
- He's just, he's so oddly specific.
Okay, so he likes classical music over jazz, of course.
- Okay.
- He prefers to watch the news over sitcoms.
- It's a little weird.
- And then the worst thing that I found
is that he doesn't like dogs.
- What?
- [Sam] Yeah.
- That's an actual preference?
- I know.
- Wow, I'm sure dogs can sense that.
- It's crazy that someone can be this good looking.
I mean, look at him, and then be such a jerk.
- So what are you gonna do about it?
- I am going to dazzle him, my dear sister.
- Of course you are.
Oh, and what about Anita's wine blender?
- I can only fix one problem at a time.
Dad's not gonna listen to me, so that's all I can do.
- Whatever you say.
- And where's this place?
[footsteps walking]
[bell ringing]
- Hi, I'm here picking up an order under Williams.
- Sure, lemme check on that, be right back.
- Cool, sounds good.
- Told you I'd find you.
- Well, hello again.
- Hi, nice surprise.
- That it is.
- What'd you order?
- I got the blue Hawaiian burger.
Makes me feel tropical when it's cold.
- You?
- The spinout.
- Never had that before.
- You should try it.
Even though I thought winemakers only eat wine
for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
- Well, even when your wine is as lovely as ours,
as you can only have it in moderation.
Besides, sometimes I just need a burger, you know?
- Get it.
So what are you doing tonight?
- What do you have in mind?
- Dinner, 1837,
good food, good wine.
- That's my favorite spot.
- Is it?
- What time should I pick you up?
- I'll meet you there, seven.
[gentle music]
- It's a date.
- Here you go sir, have a good day.
- Well, I.
- Yeah, same.
- Right.
[bell ringing]
[gentle music]
- Hey Sam, I'm out to up at 1837 with Tony.
I'll be back later tonight.
[gentle music]
- That was phenomenal.
Did the wine pairing meet with your approval?
- I think you tied it all together.
[person sighing]
- Very happy you liked it.
- So do you come here often?
- You know, I used to, before we started getting busy
in the early days of reserves, my stepbrother Tony and I,
we would come here and we'd have
our business brainstorm sessions.
- What brought you to Herman?
- California was, is too expensive
and France was out of the question.
The more research I did,
the more I realized Hermann was the future.
- Future?
- Well, the future for me at least.
- That's a bold claim.
- Look, wine doesn't just happen.
It exists because we choose to make it.
It's no accident that the grapes here in Hermann
are less vulnerable than other places.
They have to be.
They don't have a choice, to survive they need to adapt.
And these people, this place, these grapes,
they all adapt to these ever-changing environments.
And in turn, they produce something so beautiful.
Something so beautiful everyone can enjoy of age.
But I think the same applies to us.
We always have an opportunity to overcome something
difficult in order to create something beautiful.
- Wow, that was amazing.
I can imagine being vulnerable is difficult for you.
- You know, you're starting to sound like my stepbrother.
- Are you guys close?
- Very, we're practically attached at the hip.
Look, I would never say this to his face,
I couldn't live without him.
He's everything I'm not, thoughtful, sensitive, friendly.
And for some reason he puts up with me.
- You're not that bad.
I have a sister too, she's pretty amazing.
- Yeah.
To our siblings.
- To our siblings.
[glass clinking]
[footsteps walking]
[person coughing]
- You all right?
- Yeah.
- Was there a cork in your wine?
- No, no, no, please.
I'll go, I'll talk to them.
I'll talk to the, you just sit there,
can I get you anything?
- [Parker] Yeah.
- That's my favorite part.
I just love the way that they cook it.
- What are you doing here?
- I'm having dinner with Tony.
- In a public place?
- What's the problem?
- [Sam] You didn't get my note.
- What note?
- The note that said I'm taking Parker here tonight.
- Parker's here?
- Yes.
- Oh, no.
Oh yes.
- I'll pull the fire alarm.
- No, no, no, no.
Don't, don't pull the fire alarm.
- What's gonna happen when he sees us,
you're gonna loose your shares.
- Okay just relax, I will run interference.
You guys go to the door, but you have to be careful.
[gentle music]
- Welcome back, what's this?
Just a free glass of sherry
for the cork we found in the last one.
- Nice work.
- Thank you.
- Love me a good dessert wine.
Ooh, sherry.
The lightest and most dryable cherries
with nutty and tart flavors.
- How do you like it?
- I love this song.
- Me too, me too.
- Is that a jukebox?
- You wanna dance with me?
- What, no.
- So stiff, so stiff.
♪ Mistletoe
- Got him to dance, that's not good.
- Yeah.
[upbeat music]
♪ First on my Christmas list is you ♪
- I can't believe you got me to do that.
- You got some moves.
- I didn't wanna go that far, but it was fun,
I'll give you that.
I'm just glad nobody recorded that.
- Oh, you didn't see me recording it?
- Don't even.
[person laughing]
Jerk.
I guess my dreams of running for public office
are out the window.
- Tough.
- I had a really good time.
[gentle music]
- Yeah, I did too.
But it's, it's getting late, so.
- Yeah.
- You wanna do this again?
- How about this weekend?
- This weekend.
- I have to go to this Christmas party
and I was wondering if you'd be my plus one.
- Plus one, huh?
- You know what I mean.
- Okay.
- Come on, it'll be fun.
Everyone will be there, please?
- Okay, yeah.
Yeah.
- Great, the Chamber of Commerce director's having,
and so all the top winemakers will be there.
The folks from Bancroft, Ashbury, Cloud Wine.
I'm sure even Hermannhof will pop in,
they are the legacy winery.
- Hermannhof.
- Yeah, you ever tried them?
The folks I get my grapes from, but be quite honest,
I miss how much longer they'll be around.
- I didn't know it was that bad.
- What's that?
- That sounds bad.
- Yeah, it is what it is.
Things change.
I wish them the best, but that's you, right?
- Yeah, that's me.
- So I'll see you Saturday, I'll pick you up 6:30.
- I'll meet you there.
What, I'm still getting to know you, so.
- Okay.
Good night, Samantha.
- Good night, Parker.
[car beeping]
And how could you be so careless?
- I don't know, Parker doesn't eat there very much anymore.
- At his favorite spot.
- To be fair, Tony says
he mostly just does delivery these days.
- It's really hard to yell at you when you're eating
all of these Christmas cookies.
- So good.
Guess I'll just have to make more of them then.
- You want me to help, right?
- Did I ever do to deserve you?
I am not worthy.
- Aside from your dramatic love life,
I think we have some bigger fish to fry.
- What?
- Has dad told you how the winery's doing?
[gentle music]
- Good morning.
You're in an awfully good mood today.
- Am I?
- Did you like the labels from the printer?
- The labels, yeah, they were great.
- You're happy with them?
- No, I'm not.
- Of course.
Well, lemme guess.
Did you dream up a new blend last night?
- Nope.
- You yelled at the cable provider
and you got to keep the introductory prize.
- No, but good reminder.
- Seems impossible, but you met a girl.
- Maybe.
- I knew it.
- For knowing it, you got it wrong twice.
I won't forget about that, tell me about her.
Who is she, what's her name?
- I don't gossip.
- Come on.
- Sorry.
- If you want come meet her
at the Christmas party this weekend.
- Yes.
[gentle music]
- Hey dad.
- [Dad] Yeah.
- We need to talk.
[objects clattering]
- Let's go.
Well, I didn't wanna have this conversation.
- Clearly, I work here and I didn't even know
what was going on.
- How bad is it Dad?
- The short version, our overhead is too high.
The costs to plant, tend to the vines process the grapes,
this bottling machine keeps breaking down.
- If there's stuff weighing us down,
we should just get rid of it.
- If we could just win this contest.
- The Christmas Blender.
- Yeah, if we could win,
it would lower our growing costs and increase our sales.
- Why don't we just solve part of the winery
and the equipment?
There's nothing wrong with going to a third party
if our costs are too high.
- No, I'm not gonna change the way we do business.
Now we are a legacy winery from seeds to Cork.
- Sam.
- She might be onto something.
- And and when did you become an expert
at growingand selling wine?
- Dad, stop.
- I don't know, maybe 'cause I've been around it
my whole life.
I love you, dad.
But you are using Christmas blends from mom from years ago.
And you're not innovating.
You're imitating, and that's the problem.
And guess what?
None of it brings mom back
and you are running this winery into the ground.
- That's enough.
- Okay, look, I love you both.
I'm not trying to choose sides here,
but honestly I think Sam's on to something.
- Look, let me just help with the Christmas Blender.
I think I have some really good ideas.
I can surprise the judges.
- No, and this conversation is over.
Now if you two will, excuse me,
there's work to be done around here.
- It didn't go too well.
- It never does.
Are you sure he is gonna be there?
- Yes, okay, Tony already text me
and he said that him and Parker are on their way.
So we gotta get a move on.
- I felt bad pretending to be festive
when dad's in the cellar stewing.
- He's not stewing.
He's just doing his grumbling Dad thing.
Come on, let's go.
[upbeat music]
- Welcome everyone to the city of Hermann's
annual Christmas tree lighting.
[audience cheering]
[audience clapping]
Are you ready?
- [Audience] Yes.
- Let's start the countdown.
- 10, nine, eight, seven.
- Tall enough to the tree, huh?
- [Audience] Three, two, one.
[audience cheering]
- It's a pleasure doing business with you.
- You too. Mr. Williams.
- Busted.
- What?
- Looks like you're enjoying
our Hermann Christmas celebrations.
- You caught me.
- Maybe you'll stay a little longer.
- Maybe.
I do love small towns, especially during the holidays.
- Well, in that case, could I interest you
in some mulled wine?
- Sure.
[gentle music]
- I think it's working.
- It looks like it.
- You wanna get outta here?
- Let's go.
- So I'd really love to know more about you.
- Right, well, you know I love wine.
- Yep, cheers to that.
- You know I love small towns.
- Clearly.
- And I love Christmas.
What else else do you wanna know?
- Okay, well, will you be spending Christmas
with your family?
Where are they, where did you grow up?
I mean, I don't even know your last name.
- You need to know my last name.
- You could spare no details.
- I'm just on a little break from work right now.
And as far as the holidays go,
my mom passed seven years ago, so.
- Gotcha.
- It's just never the same without her.
What about you?
- Well, growing up my dad was in the military and widowed.
So Christmas was kind of rough.
But then he met my mom, stepmom,
Tony's mom and things got much better.
She made sure Christmas was always very special for us.
- It must have been hard without your mom.
- Yeah, but Tony's mom is my mom.
- I love that.
- Yeah, so.
- I hate to drink and run.
- Then don't.
- I have to.
- No, you don't, stay.
- I can't.
- Well, can I walk you
to your hotel or your car or wherever you're going?
- No, I'm good, I appreciate it though.
- Well, don't forget about tomorrow.
- What's tomorrow?
[person laughing]
- I won't even joke around like that, please?
- I'm kidding, I'll meet you there.
Seven.
- See you then.
[person sighing]
[upbeat music]
[people chattering]
- Maybe I did.
- You.
- Thank you, you look pretty nice yourself there.
And that wouldn't be such a bad thing wouldn't?
Hey Dad, you're looking nice.
- In my day this was just a sweater, not an ugly sweater.
- My opinion, if there was a contest, you would win.
- There you are.
- Oh my, I did not know you wore nice clothes.
- Didn't, I just bought this.
- Oh, you just bought this.
- Oh, tag is still on it.
- Thanks.
- So hoe do I look?
- You look like you could own a winery.
- I'll take it, George.
- How's it going?
- Parker, Merry Christmas.
- Tis' the season.
How's your Christmas blend coming along?
- Couldn't be better, yours?
- It's my best to date.
The judges and crowd should be pleased.
I'm very excited to try yours.
- Wow, I'm very excited about the grand prize.
- Well, don't get too excited,
I'm pretty sure we have this one.
- Well, we'll see about that.
- You plan on bringing that same dull blend
you brought last year George, you're in trouble.
Have a good evening, I have to find my date.
Excuse me.
- Who could possibly be on a date with that narcissist?
- He is.
- Okay, Dad, look, you promise not to get too mad.
[wine pouring]
- See her?
- No, not yet.
Hope she didn't forget.
- Nervous?
No, I'm getting nervous.
- Hey.
[gentle music]
Hey, is that her?
- Yeah.
- I'll leave you two alone.
- Wow, just wow.
Hi, you look stunning.
Sorry.
- Thank you.
- Do you wanna go try some wine?
- Yes, yes.
You have to try Alpine's newest red,
it's a blend of Missouri Nord
with California.
Hi, two general Fremont please.
[wine pouring]
Thank you.
- To a very merry Christmas.
- And a happy New Year.
[glasses clinking]
[gentle music]
- Wow.
Wow, that's good.
Right?
Dark berries.
- Black plum.
- Dark chocolate.
- Black cherry.
- And a touch of liquorish.
- And wood showing the long finish.
Wow, you really do have an excellent palette.
- Thanks.
- You should come work for me.
- I can't.
And plus all my passengers need help with their carry-ons.
- I'm serious.
Why don't you move here out?
I'll hire you and you can help me make new wines.
- It's really sweet,
but I really don't even know what to say.
- Say yes.
What do you have to lose?
You have the talent, you just need an opportunity.
- I need to go wash my hands.
I will be right back.
[person sighing]
[gentle music]
What is wrong with me?
You don't actually like this guy.
He's a jerk.
He's a real, he's an attractive jerk.
But, get it together Samantha.
Why are you acting like this?
He's not that cute.
Everything's good.
- Hi, are you okay?
- I think I might actually like Parker.
- What, are you kidding me?
That's awful and that's great.
That's awful and great at the same time.
- Is it?
- Totally, okay, if Parker finds out who you are
then there's no way he's gonna have a problem
with Tony and I and then we can all.
We can all live happily after.
- You make it look so easy.
- Trust me.
And I may have already told dad
about Parker and Tony anyways.
- Wait what?
- It's okay.
He wasn't angry per se, just grumbly.
- Great.
- Look, Sam.
- Everything is gonna be just fine, look at me.
Go in there and get yourself some true love.
- Thanks.
- Welcome.
Wow.
[door banging]
- Can I please see your after dinner drink selection?
Thank you so much.
- Miss me?
- Caught me.
So what is next on our taste menu?
- Well, I was looking at the dessert menu
and I thought that could be fun.
- Someone likes to skip dessert I see.
- Sometimes I enjoy things that are sweet.
You really should consider staying in Hermann.
- It seems like a nice place to live.
- Hermann's turning into a huge wine destination.
And you would be great in the wine business.
I'm not just saying that.
- Look Parker,
there's something that I need to tell you that I.
- Your father has outdone himself this year.
This Hermann Hoff Norton is, oh, it's amazing.
- Your father.
- Hey Parker Williams, you made it.
- Yeah.
- Be good to this one, she's Hermannhof royalty.
I've noticed since she was a baby.
- Royalty, huh?
- [Speaker 3] I remember her and her sister Emily,
running around those wine cellars,
like it was their own personal playground.
- You don't say.
- Remember that?
Oh, and her mother made the most wonderful blends.
You know, we're kind of sad that you didn't get into wine.
- Maybe someday.
- Well, love the Norton.
I hope you guys have a good holiday.
I'll see you around, bye.
Those cookies were to die for.
- Look, Parker, I can't explain.
- What's there to explain, you're a Hermannhof?
- I know, I tried to.
- Should have seen this coming, I'm such an idiot.
No wonder you knew so much about wine.
No wonder you knew so much about me.
- I'm sorry.
- Wait a minute.
Did Tony put you up to this?
- I mean.
- Yes, it was my idea.
- Are you trying to deliberately sink our winery?
- No, I love Emily.
I just wanna be happy with her.
- You've been dating her behind my back.
You've been dating the competition.
- Yes Parker, I love her.
- So you're giving up your shares.
- You can't do that.
- Yes, I can.
We made an agreement,
remember that if either of us jeopardized our winery,
the offending party would forfeit his.
- Yes, yes.
- Why don't you just let him be happy
and then maybe you be happy?
- Hey, you can quit the act now.
You're real great, thank you so much for your work.
But we're done here.
You know what, no hard feelings,
let's just see who the best winemaker in town is, huh?
We are done.
- I'm sorry.
[gentle music]
- I don't know, can't get her to come out of her room.
- Well, I can't say I blame her.
- Wait, are are you saying this is my fault?
She called me to come here, come home and help her.
But she was dating him long before I got here.
- And that's the problem.
- That I don't come home.
- Bingo.
- Dad, I don't know if you know this,
but I have a job so I can't just take off
massive amounts of time work.
- But you can make an effort.
You pop in here for a day or two here and there
and then you leave.
Are you really that mad at me?
- Yeah.
- Why?
- Because you're stubborn and we're gonna lose
this whole thing if you don't get with the times.
- Are we really gonna argue about that again?
- Yeah, because you don't trust me Dad.
I don't know how many times I have to tell you this,
but I'm good at making wine.
I'm really good at it.
- And I never said you weren't.
- But what?
You just are never willing to change.
- Because I can't.
- Because of mom.
I'm so sick of you using mom as an excuse.
Because even mom knew that we have to change our blends
every year, depending on the harvest.
And she listened to the vines.
- I am not gonna let go of the last thing
I have of your mother.
- Her formula Dad,
if you think that's the last thing that represents mom,
you're even more lost than I thought.
- I don't know how to be without her.
- And you think I do.
What I do know is that she wants us to move on
and she doesn't want us fighting.
And you wonder why I never come home Dad.
I'll be gone in the morning.
[gentle music]
- [Parker] What were you thinking?
= Oh, good morning to you too.
- Why can't you let me be happy?
= You can be happy.
You just can't take the competition.
- You did.
- Yeah, under false pretense.
- So what, do you like her?
Do you like her?
- Yes, I liked her, but I was tricked into it.
So that is a false pretense.
- Okay, listen Parker, if you like Samantha,
why don't we just tear up the contracts and be happy?
- Because that's not how this works.
We signed the contract because love makes people like us
make bad choices.
- But they're our choices to make.
- Sure, but if you wanna work at this winery,
there are rules.
And dating the competition is a flagrant violation of that.
Do you understand?
I'm sorry.
[door whirring]
[water splashing]
- Dad, Sam's gone and she's not answering her phone.
- Yeah, I know.
- What did you say to her?
- It's not your business little one.
- Okay, Dad, whatever is going on between the two of you,
you need to work it out.
- She wants me to change the blends.
I can't do that.
- Why?
Because that was mom's job?
Dad, you still have mom in Sam and I,
but I'm telling you,
you are gonna lose Sam with your stubbornness.
Sam has been making blends for a long time
and she's really, really good at it.
In fact, she made a red blend and I put it in oak barrels.
I haven't touched it because I wanted to surprise.
- Wait a minute, where?
- Deep in the cellar, we had our own little secret operation
and the first blends we made
have been there for seven years.
- Seven years.
Show me.
You've gotta be kidding.
Why did she say anything?
- She did, but you weren't listening.
Look, dad, we will always have our traditional wines
like the Norton, but we've gotta get creative
with her blends, I mean, that's why mom
was changing her red blend every single year.
And Sam is brilliant at making wine.
I think she got the gift from mom.
- Have you even tried any of these?
- No, but I have just been saving them
for this very occasion.
- Oh, go on.
[upbeat music]
Yeah, it's something right?
Look, dad, if we don't change,
we are not gonna be competitive with any other winery
and we are going to get left behind.
But you know what I really, truly believe
is that the best way to honor mom
is to simply strive to do our best and to make the best.
I think that's what she would really want.
- You're right.
You're right.
Honey I am so sorry.
- It's okay, just don't tell me, tell Sam.
Just tell Sam before it's too late.
- I'll drive.
[plane whirring]
[footsteps walking]
[upbeat music]
Samantha.
- Sam.
- Wait.
- Dad, Emily, what are you guys doing here?
- Sam, I'm sorry about everything.
Emily told me about the.
- Told you what?
- I told him about the blends you made and we tasted
the one you made before you moved out.
- Wait a minute, I thought those were long gone guys.
I stored them in oak barrels in the cellar.
- Sam, your blend from seven years ago, it's amazing.
It's the key to this contest.
It's gonna save Hermannhof.
I'm sorry that I've been so focused in the past
and not seeing the future, but you're the future,
Sam, both of you.
- Dad, are you sure?
- That red blend of yours is spectacular.
- You are our secret weapon to beating reserve sellers.
All right.
What do you say we go bottle some wine?
- Let's go bottle some wine.
Let's go bottle some wine.
[upbeat music]

Pretty exciting.
[audience clapping]
- They seem to really love it.
- You think?
- Did you make enough?
- I hope so Dad.
- Have you tried the Reserve Sellers in?
- No, I'm nervous.
- Go ahead.
- Great.
Polaris, please.
Pretty good.
- I thought you'd like it.
- Hi.
- I'm surprised you came.
- Just supporting my family.
- Oh, the truth at last.
Everything I told you was the truth except that I'm.
- Hermannhof, yeah.
I hate to break it to you,
but a lie of omissions still a lie, so.
- Look, I get you can be angry at me,
but what I don't get is you continuously
not letting Tony and Emily be together.
- Well, Tony's a big boy and he knows the rules.
We're dating the competition or you're out the winery.
- You're the only one competing.
And nobody wins 'cause Tony and Emily can't be together.
And I would do anything to make my sister happy.
- Including pretending to like me, right?
- Do you wanna know the truth?
- Go for it.
- You seem like you know everything.
You wanna know the real truth.
- Sure, let's see.
- I actually started to really like you.
Under this abrasive personality
was someone that I started to care about.
Loved that you loved to make wine, but more importantly,
I loved how much you loved your stepbrother.
- What's your point?
- My point is, I saw the real you.
It's not that scary.
You made a good blend.
- I know.
Thanks.
- Hey, they're done with the tally.
- Work calls.
- Fine, you try my blend?
It's only been sitting in oak barrels for seven years.
Goes down smoother than yours.
- How is that even possible?
- [Speaker 4] What's your favorite?
- Excuse me, could I, one Hermannhof please.
- Okay, everyone gather around.
The votes have been counted
and the finalists this year are Reserve Sellers.
[audience clapping]
And Hermannhof.
[people screaming]
- Good job.
- Now our two finalists
will have to go head to head with the judges
who will make the final decision.
- Did you talk to Parker?
- Outdid themselves.
- Yeah.
- Hope we crush him.
- Winemakers, can I have you to the stage?
All the red blends were submitted this year
were so wonderful.
- No, no, no, you.
- Sam, this is your wine, you go.
- You're a better winemaker than I could ever be.
Go get up there kid.
- Sam, anything you'd like to say?
- Thank you everyone for being here
and I hope you're having a great time
at our Christmas Bender.
- Parker, anything you'd like to say?
Tip your waiters.
- Really, tip your waiters.
- Okay, it looks like Reserve Sellers is gonna be first,
judges.
9.5, 9.4, and 9.5.
That is an incredible, that's great.
On to the Hermannhof red blend.
- I have a deal for you.
- What?
- It's so nice having her hop back on stage.
The judges seem to be discussing the Hermannhof red blend.
That's kind of unusual, okay,
so judges a little more time to deliberate.
- Let Emily and Tony be together,
I'll forfeit the competition.
- You can't forfeit.
- I don't care about winning.
I just want my sister to be happy.
- Judges, 9.8.
- Yes.
[audience clapping]
Another 9.8.
9.9.
- I'm gonna forfeit.
- You deserve this, go.
- Sam, can you say some words?
Come on over, congratulations sweetie.
- For as long as I can remember,
I have always wanted to be a winemaker.
My mother, my father,
and my sister are all reasons why I love wine.
- [Mom] Girls.
Sam, Emily.
- Mom, the lights went out.
I didn't know the two of you were still in here.
- Don't worry, Sam was looking out for me.
- That's what big sisters are for.
I'll always look out for you.
- That's right, you guys will always have each other.
Okay, now listen.
Do you wanna see what I've been working on?
- Yeah.
- Let's go.
- I'll need you both to take a deep breath
and then smell this, okay.
[person sniffing]
What do you smell?
- Wine.
- Anything else Sam?
- Cherry.
Plum, cinnamon.
Very good Sam, you're gonna be a better winemaker
than me and your dad someday.
- I'm a fifth generation winemaker
and I couldn't be more proud to stand up here today.
So I just wanna say thank you everyone
and I hope you guys all have a happy holiday.
- Any comments?
- Samantha's right,
Christmas is a time for joy and love
and helping those closest to us be happy.
Congratulations Hermannhof.
- Wait Parker, wait, hold on.
[audience clapping]
- Good job honey.
- Thanks dad.
- I want you to have this, here.
- But why?
- I don't need it anymore.
Go get him.
- You hold this from your dad?
- Your mom would be so proud of you.
- I love you dad.
- I love you too.
[upbeat music]
- I think there's someone I need to go find.
- Go get him, go.
Dad is there anything you have to do as well?
[person cheering]
[person kissing]
This is amazing.
- You looking for someone?
- Yeah.
- Sorry, it was just a lot in there.
- It was.
- Congratulations.
I tasted your wine.
- And?
- And it was by far one of the best things I've ever tasted.
It was so smooth and bold and perfect.
Just like you.
- Parker, I should have told you so many things.
- Hey, look, if Tony can date the competition,
why can't I, right?
It's only fair.
But I'm traveling and I don't live here.
- Let's face it, your heart's in Hermann,
your family's here. I'm here, stay.
Besides, I don't think I could wait
another seven years to try a surprise blend from you again.
So it's the only reason why you want me
to stay because of my winemaking.
Not just,
maybe I'll take you up on your job offer.
Think I could pencil you in for an interview.
Merry Christmas Sam.
- Merry Christmas Parker.
