Synopsis

Ever since a large hotel opened nearby, an inn in a wine-producing town on the Rhine has been struggling financially. The owner wants to retain control and pass the inn on to her three daughters, refusing offers to turn it into a milk bar. Her daughters set out to make sure the inn hosts the annual wine festival in order to save it.
