Description:
After writing the Year in Provence trilogy about his experiences in the region, Peter Mayle began to write fictional books based in the region.
Max Skinner is not setting London's financial world on fire so he decides it’s time to inspect the vineyard in Provence that his recently departed uncle left him. He is happily distracted on his arrival by the landscape, the weather and the food as well as the good looking notaire handling the estate and owner of the local bistro. However, the reality is that the wine produced by his uncle's property is terrible. But then why, Max has to wonder, is his caretaker so anxious to acquire the land? When a beautiful young woman from California arrives with what might be a legitimate claim on the estate and knowledge of vineyards that far outstrips Max’s own, the plot becomes more interesting.
