TERAMO ITALY - 1993

The Puglia family's centuries-old winery symbolizes tradition, passion, and an unbreakable bond.

Nonna Sarah has spent her life alongside her late husband, Lorenzo, keeping their family's dream alive. But when Lorenzo dies unexpectedly, it's left to Sarah to ensure the estate's future.

With no interest in the family business, her son, Leonardo, an acclaimed painter, refuses to take charge. His life is devoted to painting, and he has never been interested in winemaking. For that reason, his papa's will hands over control to his grandsons, Giovanni and Raphael—two cousins with vastly different approaches to life.

Giovanni is hardworking and committed to making the vineyards thrive, just as his Nonno Lorenzo taught him when he first learned to walk as a bambino. On the other hand, Raphael is content to stay behind a desk, managing from afar, and refuses to get his hands dirty.

The constant bickering over the winery's future, which they never seem to see eye to eye on, threatens everything the Puglia family has built. However, the future of the vineyard is not their only concern. Both cousins are under pressure from the famiglia to find love and secure an heir to carry on the family name. As they struggle to balance family, business, and romance, will they find the harmony needed to preserve their legacy? Or will the feuds tear apart everything their ancestors built?

Tales of Brush and Vine is a captivating tale of family, rivalry, and love set against the sweeping beauty of the Italian countryside. In a world where tradition is everything, can these men find a way to unite and keep a family legacy alive?

You are invited to pour yourself a glass of vino, sit down to a plate of fresh homemade pasta, and immerse yourself in the captivating world of the Puglia famiglia. This family is very passionate about life and love, so it's bound to be entertaining!
