Love on the vines - 2016/7

A nice little movie, nothing special but nice, I didn’t much like the two protagonists but the side love-story was nice. The characters are: businesswoman with a love for technology and innovation Diana, control-freak vinery-passionate Seth, Amelia the cute waitress, rich vinery owner Grant, Grant’s son Paul, diner-owner Susie, lawyer and Susie’s mother Jill.
Details: When Hugh died Seth thought he’d inherit the vinery while Diana went to see Hugh’s lawyer thinking she’d only be there for two days to get some paintings she liked but.. surprise, Hugh left it 50-50 to both of them, on condition that they stay two weeks working together. If one of them leaves earlier, both of them lose it all. 
A long time ago they dated, before she left for the big city. Diana says she wants to do half of the work, even field work, but he’d rather do it all himself who knows what he’s doing, and anyway she spends all her time on the phone, or making conference-calls, and talking about online searches and technology. 
Grant made an offer to Seth already, who is adamant he’ll never sell, so now he tries with Diana who seems to leave her options open. When Seth hurts his ankle Diana finally helps a little more in the field. She starts taking care of the business-side of the vinery, and Grant calls her boss saying how she’s starting to feel at home here, hoping he’d get her back to the city. It’s finally harvest time. 
Grant tries to break them apart, again and again. 
Eventually Diana leaves her half to Seth and goes back to the city and the big job offer, or promotion, whatever it was that the guy came up with because apparently in that firm that can’t do without her, without even saying goodbye. She’s not happy though, so she goes back to Seth, and finds him when he was about to leave to go to New York because he wants to be with her more than anything.. so now they’ll run the vinery together as partners, in work and life.
Susie wants to do catering but Jill takes over very enthusiastically, rather overwhelmingly. She plans everything and until Susie insists on doing it her way. Jill was worried that if Susie’s diner wasn’t a success she’d leave again, and that’s why she cared so much. 
Paul likes Amelia and finally they start dating, and when Grant learns about it he invites her to dinner; he has no good intentions though, he tells her when they are alone that she’s not the right kind of girl for Paul, so she starts avoiding him.  Grant keeps trying to break them apart, again and again, yes them too. When Paul’s understands his father’s interference he quits working for him; his mother is very angry to learn this and Grant tries to put things right with his son. Paul won’t go back to working with him but at least they make peace.
