	Author	Review
United States	Boyd van Hoeij The Hollywood Reporter	"The film’s biggest weakness is that it lacks not only a three-dimensional third sibling but actually any properly developed female character at all (...) The technical aspects are all silky smooth"	NEU
United Kingdom	Wendy Ide The Guardian	"A modest but engaging drama (...) Very watchable (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"Sweet but unsatisfying family drama (...) Structural flaws let down Cédric Klapisch’s tale (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Ben Kenigsberg The New York Times	"Klapisch lingers his camera lovingly over shots of grapes (...) all the while employing story mechanics and flashbacks indelicate enough to suggest the churn of a factory juicer."	NEU
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"This gorgeous French family saga benefits enormously from Klapisch’s natural curiosity (...) [It] manages to avoid the generic, templatized feel of so many American movies"	POS
United States	Wes Greene Slant	"Klapisch correlates wine's complex arrangement of flavors to the complexity of memory itself (...) the most nuanced of the filmmaker's wine metaphors (...) It leaves Juliette feeling like a cipher (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEU
