The tropes are in lock-step with the caricature.

Holiday wine country romance has love, loss, language.

The acting and production value is actually far better than a Hallmark Christmas movie, which perhaps will take away the fun for some viewers; but, for me, made it infinitely more watchable.

There is absolutely nothing here that you haven't seen before, but if what you're looking for is a laidback romance that hits all the comforting notes you expect it to, then A California Christmas will definitely scratch that itch.

I liked it, better than most Christmas movies. Pretty funny throughout. Thought they could’ve done the reveal a little better but still a decent watch for its genre.

It was ok overall as I didn't find the story very believable or the characters likable, but the ending with the vineyard was good
