It says: your late nights at the office, your secret crush on the legal team, your professional respect turning into something more—you are not alone. And every Tuesday night, millions of Italians tune in to watch those feelings play out, beautifully and dramatically, on screen.
Lucia modernizes the vineyard’s techniques, clashing with the older brother’s traditional methods. Simultaneously, the younger brother falls for her.
