Romancing the Pinot is about Gianni, a young Italian who suffers the pains of a cruel father until he reaches 21. He becomes millionaire Jean LaPierre, the biggest winery owner in Willamette Valley, Oregon. Along the way, the admired entrepreneur and Pinot Noir aficionado falls in and out of love with three beautiful women: an impassioned young protegee, an erotic Barcelona photographer and a born-again-Christian ballroom dancer. The plot takes twists and turns: from vineyard glamor to bedroom sex to startling suspense that nearly shatters the lives of hero and heroine.
