There are secrets you share,
and secrets you hide
Growing up on her family's Sonoma vineyard, Georgia Ford learned some important secrets. The secret number of grapes it takes to make a bottle of wine: eight hundred.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Last Thing He Told Me comes a gripping family drama set in the Sonoma hills. On the eve of her wedding, Georgia discovers a devastating secret about her fiancé — and flees to the only place she's ever felt safe: the family vineyard. What she finds there changes everything she thought she knew.

The secrets at the heart
of every bottle
📖
Family Secrets

The Fords protect their vineyard — and each other — with truths never spoken aloud. Georgia's homecoming forces the hidden into the light. What do we keep, and what do we owe each other?

Eight Hundred Grapes

It takes roughly 800 grapes to fill a single bottle of wine. A quiet, beautiful secret — the kind of knowledge passed hand to hand, generation to generation, that you only learn by being there.

Secret Ingredients

Every winemaker has them — small choices that never appear on the label. A touch of chocolate in the lasagna. A surprise pairing that shouldn't work but does. We'll explore a few of our own that evening.
