A young kid in a winery? Never thought I’d see it on the Hallmark Channel.
Though UNCORKED is a generic romance movie, the background is wine. The male lead (Scott Elrod) is a chef and his parents (Jo Beth Williams and Elliott Gould) run a small Northern California winery.
His very young son also helps out there, even explaining how wine is made. Part of the solution in the romance has the female lead (Julie Benz from “Dexter”) figuring out how to keep the family winery going. Family values and wine – love it!

So, this cute min-barrel of red wine sits on your kitchen counter day after day, patiently waiting for you to try it –again. You’ve already sampled it several nights in a row, and found it “quaffable” as they say.  But it’s allegedly good for 40 days, so you wait and you wait.  Day 35 you give in: it’s still the same!  And it hasn’t been refrigerated.  Day 39, day 40: the same.  Something actually works the way “they” said it would.  Another point for American ingenuity — or at least American wine; this wine is from Sonoma.  Day 41 test? uh-oh, no wine left.
