I really loved this book. I liked the movie, but as some one who knows a little about wine I had a real problem with the movie's reference to Central California as Wine Country. The book made it really clear that Santa Barbara was the poor man’s wine country. The book also did a good job to giving some insight to California’s wine culture and how the tasting bars are becoming the local pubs The other thing the book did was to reference real California wines and wineries. The minute I read that the main character prized Gary Farrell wine (it was written before the winery’s sale) I knew the book was the real deal, and not a Hollywood dressing up of things that needed no such attention. I guess being someone who collects wine and lives in Northern California with quality wineries just minutes away, I viewed the movie as So Cal’s version of the truth (since the hardly acknowledge that anything above Santa Barbara is part of California) and entertaining. But, if you are a true wine lover, and want to read how it played a part in two men’s last hooray, skip the movie and read the book. If you do read this book, take special note of the passage about smelling the cork. It is true! I was given this tidbit of knowledge when I was in my twenties, and have always giggled when I saw someone do it. Now that I know it is actually written down somewhere, I burst out laughing.
