39-year old writer Monty Waldin is a man in pursuit of a dream... He’s giving up his life in England and using all his savings to take over a small vineyard in the south-west of France - to produce his own wine.
The odds seemed stacked against him. Much to the derision of some wine experts, Monty is determined to grow his grapes biodynamically, using no chemicals or machinery, relying instead on planetary rhythms and the influence of the moon. Always strapped for cash, Monty has no business experience - even his Italian girlfriend is sceptical.
For the last two years, cameras have been following Monty in this buoyant and exuberant quest to pull off the greatest adventure of his life.
