Read transcript and translation here.
An American businessman's life changes forever when he discovers a €3 bottle of French wine that tastes better than $30 bottles back home. Fascinated by France's wine culture—producing 8 billion bottles annually as the world's second-largest producer—Tom sells his Seattle home to buy a vineyard in Southern France. Follow his journey from curious tourist to passionate winemaker as he embraces French wine traditions, learning that the true value of wine isn't on the price tag but in the passion, patience, and connection to the land. Listen to this story while you sleep to absorb French vocabulary about winemaking and cultural differences.
