Synopsis/Details: 

When a two-hundred-year-old bottle of wine is discovered in a Boston bar, two pompous wine lovers are willing to pay any price to acquire it. They may have reached the limits of their tolerance though when the bar's owner decides that the bottle will go to the man who is best able to lessen the load of a newly widowed friend and customer. Showing kindness to others is new to them, and their actions soon go overboard. The owner changes his mind and says that the wine will only be available to either man after they learn to get along - which will not be easy for these two competitive souls.
