.JustinCChang kicks off his review: ''Wine Country' is quaffable enough.'
“Wine Country” is quaffable enough. If pressed to supply my own tasting notes, I might describe the blend as unwieldy but not unpleasant, sometimes acid to the point of bitterness .
Joining Abby in the workaholics’ corner is Catherine , a successful entrepreneur who can’t stay off her phone. But the others have their distractions too, all of them parceled out in the usual one-personality-trait-apiece fashion. Rebecca’s in denial about her lousy marriage. Naomi is overwhelmed by her kids. Jenny has vague anxiety issues.
The anger behind that scene is understandable even if the execution is more than a little misguided. Written by Spivey and Liz Cackowski, “Wine Country” throws a giddy comic spotlight on six women whose demographic is routinely spurned and misunderstood by society at large, to say nothing of the movie industry.
