The Wine Merchant

It's the Season IV Finale where Claire ties up several loose ends. The Diary legacy that was picked up by Claire years ago will continue for generations to come. There are many more of the old diaries from the Village - Laurente and Elle DeLaVigne have been making plans once again. . .Claire picks up the mantle, and then makes her feelings for Alexandre official while Remi is never far away.

One of Claire's most exciting diary entries where she recounts the final days of this mystery and investigation. A few more details before The Wine Merchant closes the file for the client Madame DeLaVigne and the mystery surrounding the counterfeit wine. A sad day for Alexandre is turned around as Claire waits her turn. Patiently.

Alexandre's cousin Robert runs out of luck but thinks he still has one more chance. He has lost touch with his own reality. The family vineyard is safe in Alexandre's hands and there are still a number of mysteries for Claire to solve with Analise and her pack of 'little wolves' - (mes petit loups).

This is it. The time has come to execute our plan ‘L’Operation’ and kill at least two birds with this one stone we hold. Fingers crossed – allons-y.

Analise Huron uses the skills she learned in the Resistance. Thank god for Analise, no doubt that she’s a CoolAunt. She stepped into The Wine Merchant without knowing and without asking. She accepted things as they are and the people too. She never criticizes and she always finds a way to make the best of every thing and every situation. The label of optimist falls short as well as that of leader. Analise is so much more to each and every one of us. I think she has well-earned another Legion ...

Claire's quiet Sunday is turned around by Barret's call from Hong Kong and this changes everything. Alexandre learns the fate of his wine through Analise and Brigitte's brilliant idea. The Resistance lives on through Analise.

Things are heating up as Claire and Brigitte get into Alexandre's case of the missing wine.

Everything is moving along with Alexandre's 'situation' - until Laurente calls for an ungent meeting of The Wine Merchant. Her dear and very important friend needs their help immediately. It's an all hands on deck moment so Alexandre will have to go it alone for now - or will he?

Claire thought things were moving along smoothly, until they weren't. So much was happening and there were so many things moving in different directions. Everyone seems to have an old friend but this one is for Analise's old friend too. Henri was a true blue good friend dating back to the Resistance and she has always kept an eye out for his family even though he's gone. Now it's all about the vineyard he built.
