A gruff divorcee and bachelor for far too long, Jacques runs a small wine cellar by himself. One day, Hortense, who is involved in community work, comes into his store and decides to sign up for a wine-tasting workshop. But for two lost souls to recognize each other, it sometimes takes a minor miracle. That miracle is Steve, a young parolee who, against all odds, brings them together. - And when three people from such different worlds meet, sometimes it's a happy encounter ? Or total chaos. Each in their own way, they're in for a serious treat ! - Cast - Dominique Poirier, Pierryves Lembeye, Thierry Chapelier, Caroline Anton, Olinda Mailly
