Synopsis
Hortense has a big heart and no one to share it with except her cat, her embittered mom, and a group of homeless people for whom she prepares a gourmet dinner at the local church every week. While buying a nice bottle of wine, Hortense meets Jacques, a fifty-something, grumpy local cellarman. Eager to see him again, she attends a chaotic wine tasting in Jacques’ shop - meeting his best friend who clumsily tries to seduce her, and his new apprentice who turns out to have a rare gift for tasting as well as an unfiltered honesty. As Hortense and Jacques grow closer and closer, their past begins to catch up to them.

Opinions on 'La dégustation' are mixed, with many appreciating the heartfelt performances of Bernard Campan and Isabelle Carré, which bring a charming touch to this romantic comedy. The film, adapted from a stage play, is praised for its engaging depiction of human connections and second chances, though some find it theatrically stiff and predictable. While the narrative is considered gentle and touching, others feel it lacks originality and depth, making it a pleasant yet unremarkable viewing experience.
