Now remember, Mr. Pike likes a chilled bottle of pinot grigio

at the table right as he sits. Thank you!

- Hi, Laurie. - Hey there!

Hey, things are looking great!

You know, I was thinking, maybe we should back off

of the Napa chard a little. It's Oregon!

We have beautiful wines here that need to be experienced.

(cell phone ringing)

Hi, Dad.

Well, this is a nice surprise. You never call.

I hope I'm not bothering you.

Is everything OK?

[Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just, uh...]

Look, I don't wanna take too much of your time.

I know you're busy at work.

But I was wondering, is there any chance

you could get some time off this week?

[I've got some news I want to talk to you about in person.]

Dad, it's gonna be hard for me to get away right now.

Oh, OK. That's all right.

I knew it was a long shot, but I thought I'd take a chance.

Well, can you tell me the news over the phone

instead of in person? - Ah, I'd rather wait

'til you're off work. - OK. I'll call you later, Dad.

- OK, hon. Bye. - Bye.

"News"?

Hey. Hi, sorry. I was just, um...

just talking to my dad. - Oh, how is he?

You know, he wanted me to come home but he didn't say why.

Well, when's the last time you were home?

It's... it's been a little while.

You must miss him.

I do. How can I help?

In two ways:

firstly, I need you to give me your honest opinion

on this sauce. It's for the Valentine's menu,

so it has to be perfect.

Mm!

Maybe a pinch of salt,

but it's delicious. Really.

You've got the best taste in the house after me.

Now, the next thing is... you know the old steakhouse

up the street? - Yeah, I heard it was for sale.

- Not anymore. I bought it. - What?!

I'm opening a second restaurant!

That is... that is so fantastic.

What do you think about... running it for me?

Really? As your partner?

As my general manager.

You know, you've done such a great job here,

I would be crazy not to have you manage the new place.

And there would be a raise involved.

Maggie, I...

thank you for thinking of me, but...

I've been your GM here for five years.

I've gone as high as I can go in this business

outside of... having something of my own.

I just don't know if the investors will go

for me bringing in a partner. - Right.

No, I... I... I... I understand.

Listen, why don't you take some time, go and see

your dad and think about my offer?

(low-key electronic music)

- (woman): Good morning, team! - (all): Good morning!

Stratosphere Beverages trounces the competition

when it comes to distributing hip, inexpensive wine.

But now, it's time to prove that we're more

than trendy wine... and this is how we're going to do it.

Grange Family Wines. They've turned down

every company who's approached them in the past,

but we just scored a meeting with them.

Grange is an award-winning boutique winery

that can bring us a new level of respect.

Between their potential and our marketing muscle,

we can make them a global name...

if... we can get them to say yes.

What we need is a sales rep

to go there and do the unthinkable:

convince GFW to sign with us.

Who's in? - I'm in.

And that's why Seth is our number one guy.

Any other volunteers? - Taylor... I got this.

Looks like it's all yours. This meeting's adjourned,

I guess. Oh, Seth?

A prestige winery like Grange

will boost our public profile

beyond party wines. We need this.

Yeah.

I'll lock it down in three days. - You know

there's a VP position opening soon?

You nail this deal and it could be yours.

Did I say three? I meant two.

Your flight leaves this afternoon.

The sooner the better.

(sighing)

Grange is one of the only wineries in the Valley

that is still owned by the original family.

In fact, Truman Grange continues to work with the same vines

first planted by his grandfather.

Now, here at Grange, we like to focus on single batches

to ensure that every bottle is made with thoughtfulness

and care. Chloe?!

Ah! You're home!

- Hey! - Everyone, this is Truman's

daughter Chloe. - Hi. Welcome.

If you all want to head over to the tasting room,

the other tour guide will set you up with some complimentary tastings.

- Hi! - Ah! What a surprise!

Are you here for the Valentine's Day Winefest?

Wait, is that already happening? That's right,

that's this week. - How could you forget?

I mean, it's only the biggest Valley event all year.

Well, I've been working 24/7. I hardly remember

what day it is anymore. - Well, the important thing

is you're here. I can't believe your dad didn't say anything!

No, actually, I'm surprising my dad.

You know, he said he wanted to tell me something in person.

Do you know what it's about? - No, he didn't mention anything

to me at the managers meeting. - Manager meeting? Wait, are you

managing the winery now?

Yeah. Your dad promoted me right after harvest.

That's amazing! I'm so happy for you.

Thank you!

You're managing a fancy restaurant in Portland

and I'm running my favourite winery.

Just two old friends living the dream!

- Oh yeah, living the dream. - We have so much

to catch up on! What are you doing right now?

I was gonna go see my dad. That was really the extent

of my plans. - Oh, well, he's gonna be out

on runs all afternoon. If you wanna come with me, I was gonna

go check out the cabin. We could catch up on the way.

Yeah, I haven't, uh...

I haven't been out there since my mom died.

Oh, that was so thoughtless of me.

No, it's OK. It's silly of me to pretend

like it doesn't exist. I'll drive.

I'm so glad to see you!

What's it been, like-- - Almost a year.

- Yeah! - I know. I'm so glad

to see you too. - Wow. Well, we have

a whole drive for you to catch me up on all the handsome men

in your life. - Oh, OK. Well, that's gonna

take us to the end of the driveway because there are none.

(Leanne): Here we are.

Just like you remember it?

(Chloe): Yeah, it was my mom's favourite place.

♪♪♪

We had a repairman start work on the cabin,

but he got called away on another job.

So it's not perfect, but... it's getting there.

Wow. We used to spend

so much time out here.

She liked to call it "our mother-daughter retreat."

Well, if it makes you feel better,

it won't be sitting empty. - What do you mean?

Well, with everyone coming in for the Festival

and this place being so cute,

your dad suggested we post it on a home rental site.

Really? Huh. I guess he didn't

like the idea of it sitting empty either.

I advertised it as rustic and someone snapped it up.

- Even though it needs repairs? - Yeah. I sent

the tenant a message through the rental site,

telling them that it still needed a little bit of work,

but they were fine with it.

I hope you're OK with someone staying here?

No, you know what, Leanne?

It's a good idea. I'll grab a bag.

Look, I'll take care of everything so you won't

have to be bothered at all. - Thank you.

I'm glad someone else can enjoy it.

Uh... - Ooh...

We'll add that to the list.

Now, it's... broken.

- How's the car running? - It's running fine, Dad.

Good, good. You're just in time

Everyone's gonna be so excited to see you.

Well, I'll get to it,

- It's good to see you. - Good to see you.

Many years ago, my lovely wife Linda

started this friends and family dinner

to kick off the week of the Valentine's Day Wine Festival.

So, raise your glass to Linda.

And let's give

a big welcome home to Chloe.

You are the family

in Grange Family Wines. - Thanks, Dad.

- Cheers. - (all): Cheers.

To a lovely night.

(glasses clinking)

I suppose that this is the best time

to tell you

that this will be my last Festival.

It's time for me to retire and turn the winery

over to some new blood.

Don't look shocked. It's time.

Way to bury the lead, Truman.

Ignore my husband. Congratulations.

- Thank you. - So, what are your plans?

There's plenty of time to talk about that.

Let's just eat while it's still hot.

Dig in, everyone.

Carrots? - Thanks.

So, when did you decide to retire?

Actually...

it was your mom's idea.

She didn't want me here alone.

- But I thought you loved it. - I do!

But it's not the same without her, and... well,

I'm not getting any younger.

So, what's gonna happen to the winery?

Hey...

have you tried this chard?

It's young, but the pear notes-- - Dad...

Dad.

(sighing)

I may have agreed to a meeting

with a wine company. - You what?!

You were always the one

that said we shouldn't sell out, that we'd

lose our integrity. Dad, I'm sure there are other options.

Leanne!

Sell the winery to Leanne, not just some random company!

We don't have to sell, but...

we should hear them out.

Dad, please let me be a part of this at least.

I just don't want some slick salesman

coming in here and taking advantage of you.

Sure, of course.

Thanks.

So, what's the name of this...

this company that we have to hear out?

- Stratosphere. - Stratosphere?!

Oh...

I guess I... I should go meet him.

You don't mind him being here?

No. My dad feels strongly about taking this meeting.

I want to respect that. Hey, what was that look?

Um, nothing! I just... thought you'd be bothered

by a company taking over. - Nothing's been decided.

It's just a meeting.

You know, when you said

you were meeting with a wine company, I didn't know

He's right here.

Snack guy?

Also known as Seth Anderson.

Chloe Grange, but you probably guessed that.

It's good to see you again.

- Do you two know each other? - Kind of.

- No. - Well, that cleared things up.

So your dad was just saying how you want to protect him

from people like me. - She thinks

I'm a little too old to make decisions on my own.

No, Dad, I don't think that.

This is a big deal and I just...

I do think that two opinions are better than one.

And you think I'm gonna take advantage. I get it.

I guess you play the bad cop to your dad's good cop?

Uh, no, I'm not the bad cop.

Is that part of your sales pitch?

What, there's no... "Your wine is so special.

The world should know you. We're the only ones who get you."

I was... I was gonna get to that.

I know your type.

You're gonna swoop in here and think you can just dazzle

the small town folks with your confidence and your...

false flattery. Let me guess. You gave yourself

three days to close this deal. Am I right?

- Two! - Wow. Does that work

where you're from? - New York. And sometimes.

Well, Mr. Anderson, you are gonna have to work

a whole lot harder if you wanna be taken seriously here.

(Truman chuckling)

Ahem. It's good to see you too.

I think that went really well. - I'll show you around.

- I was coming to save you. - Go, go, go, go, go!

Ugh!

- He's handsome. - He is not handsome!

He is the enemy! Not that I noticed his looks.

Sure you didn't. So listen, I need a favour.

He practically admitted that his just showing up

would be enough to make us sell. - I got an email

on the house rental site from the new tenant--

You know what? I bet he doesn't even like wine.

Wait, I'm sorry. Email? What were you saying?

About some repairs that are needed on the cabin.

Yeah, but I thought you sold it as "rustic."

I did, but I guess the tenant found it a little too rustic.

So if you wanna fill in for me in the tasting room,

I could head over to the cabin, see what the problem is?

You know what? No. Let me go to the cabin.

- Are you sure? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't want

this sales guy thinking I'm too available. I wanna let him

sweat it out a little. Ugh!

This is our five-year-old cab franc.

The medium body and high acidity make it a beautiful wine to pair

with tomato and barbecue sauces.

I love this wine because the more you drink it,

the more it reveals itself to you.

You'll notice the plum

and strawberry notes upfront, followed by

a slightly spicy side,

but you can't give up on it, because...

you'll miss the chocolate finish.

This wine is definitely not

for the impatient. You really have to...

to work to fully appreciate it,

which is why it's one of my absolute favourites.

You should try it with the cheese.

Thank you!

I forgot how good you are at this.

What blind tasting? I was just there

last month. I didn't hear about this.

It was invite only. You know, for top collectors.

- Yeah. - You're a collector?

I'm a buyer for private collections only. Yeah, there's

a lot of money in Texas oil. They just need a little help

with taste... if you know what I mean, pretty lady?

- Yeah. Sure. - Yeah. So who are you?

I own this restaurant.

Hmm.

Well...

in that glass sits the wine

that beat out wines from Bordeaux

and the Rhone region. My top collector friends

would flock to any place that carries it.

Yeah. You know, maybe now that it's had a little time

to breathe, you could give it another taste.

(sniffing)

It does have the complexity of a Bordeaux.

It just needed to breathe.

Now I just work as hard as I can

to be as successful as I can possibly be.

Success can...

can be protective,

Well... what do you think fulfilling is?

Being passionate

Um...

Although, I was thinking that maybe it's someone

that's in town for the Festival, 'cause all the locals

know about the cabin. - Mm-hmm.

It's a small town and the tourists are easy to spot,

(both sighing)

I'm sorry, Truman.

Hi Maggie, it's Chloe.

Listen, I just wanted to s...

I wanted to say thank you for your offer, but...

I'm gonna have to say no.

You need someone who's gonna give you 100%,

and... that's not me.

My place is here in the Valley.

I... I don't belong in Portland,

so... I hope you can understand,

and... thank you for everything.

Hey.

I was just, um...

I just turned down the job offer.

I'm sure you can

call her back and explain.

I don't want to.

(sighing)

I'll...

work here, or get a...

a job at another winery. I...

I don't know.

But I do know...

I do know this is where I belong.

This...

This is my home.

I'm sorry if...

if I let you down.

You didn't.

You didn't.

You just...

You pushed me to be honest with myself.

Will I always feel this way?

(Truman sighing)

Will I always feel this way?

Finding what makes you happy

isn't always easy.

He's Handyman.

(phone ringing)

Hello?

OK, Chloe, you're never gonna believe it.

I was hungry but I was sick of all the food

at the festival, so I stopped by that little cafe...

- I want you to have it. - What?

Yeah, we have to keep it in town. I can't take it with me.

[I was talking to Nancy,]

[the waitress at the Cornerstone Cafe.]

I know who Handyman is!

In fact... I'm with him right now.

- You are?! Where? - [Right here at the cafe!]

OK. Stall him. Just...

do whatever you have to do. I'm on my way.

Don't you wanna know who he is?

I blocked Seth's car!

Huh? You said "stall"!

Good job.

- Chloe? - Hey, Handyman!

You forgot something.

I left it on purpose.

But... I thought

this contract was your purpose.

(sighing)

It was...

until I found something more important than business.

You did?

(sighing)

You, Chloe.

Your passion

is infectious.

You make me wanna be a better person,

find something more fulfilling.

I had more fun being your Handyman

in your middle-of-nowhere quiet cabin

than I ever did in the city.

Don't sell to Stratosphere...

or to anyone else, for that matter. You should

run the winery. You know it better than anybody else.

That's...

that's, of course, if you...

if you want to.

That's one

of the things I want.

So...

what's the other thing?

Well, maybe it's a good question for Handyman.

What do you think Handyman would advise us to do right now?

This.
