Despite this, Jenna’s jumping at any chance she has to succeed and study, so when her father needs help on their vineyard, she’s more than happy to assist him. While there, she meets winemaker Marcelo (Juan Pablo Di Pace), whose natural Argentinian methods have Jenna looking at vineyards, winemaking, and her own life in a whole new way.
