Synopsis/Sinopsis


En el hermoso pueblo de Tequila, Jalisco, surge un amor ardiente, puro y fuerte, como el famoso destilado que lleva el nombre de esta cálida y fértil región donde se produce.

Teresa Hernández, a quien todos llaman Gaviota, es una jornalera de campo que recorre el país con su madre, Clara, trabajando las cosechas. Cada año, regresan a Tequila para la "jima" del agave azul en la hacienda La Montalveña, propiedad de Don Amador, el patriarca de los Montalvo, una familia de abolengo en la producción de tequila. Al inicio de la historia, Don Amador sabe que se acerca su fin y llega para pasar sus últimos días en esta tierra que tanto ama.

Cuando Don Amador muere, su familia se reúne para el funeral. Sus nietos, Rodrigo y su primo Aarón, viajan desde Londres, donde estudian un doctorado. Los primos han crecido como hermanos, pero el testamento de su abuelo despierta la ambición en Aarón, pues el control de la fortuna familiar finalmente recaerá sobre el primer hijo varón engendrado por uno de ellos dos. Aarón se siente confiado, sabiendo que Rodrigo nunca ha podido hacer el amor; sin embargo, la llegada de Gaviota a su vida cambiará el destino de Rodrigo.

Al conocerse, Rodrigo y la bella jimadora sienten por primera vez el inquietante llamado del amor; sus cuerpos despiertan a una pasión que los domina y ambos se entregan completamente. Rodrigo promete a Gaviota volver en un año cuando termine el doctorado para casarse con ella. Poco tiempo después, Gaviota descubre que está embarazada. Sin tener idea del tamaño del mundo, la inocente joven decide ir a Inglaterra a buscar a Rodrigo. Engañada por un fotógrafo local que le promete ayuda, Gaviota cae en manos de una banda de tratantes de blancas que la envían a un burdel en Paris.

La valiente joven escapa e inicia su peregrinaje en busca del hombre que ama. Sola, sin conocer el idioma, sólo su fe y su gran amor la sostendrán en los peores momentos. Auxiliada por un generoso italiano, y un grupo de religiosas inglesas, volverá a México para encontrar una vida muy diferente a la que dejó atrás; una vida de dolor y decepción. Una vida en la gran ciudad, donde reinan la ambición, el rencor y la mentira, una vida que podría convertir en piedra el corazón inocente que inició aquel fatídico viaje... Destilando Amor.


In the quaint town of Tequila, Jalisco, surges a burning, pure and strong love, like the famous distillery that carries the name of this quality and fertile region where it is produced.

Teresa Hernandez, whom everyone calls Gaviota, is a female fieldworker that travels the country with her mother, Clara, working the working the harvests. They return every year to Tequila for the harvest of the agave plant at the plantation "La Montalvena, owned by Don Amador, the patriarch of the Montalvo family, a family whose ancestry lays in the production of tequila. At the start of the story, Don Amador knows that he's close to the end and arrives to spend his last remaining days on the land that he loves so much.

When Don Amador dies, his family reunites for the funeral. His grandsons, Rodrigo and his cousin Aaron, travel to London, where they study for their doctorates. The cousins have grown up as brothers, but the will of their grandfather awakens the ambition in Aaron, where the control of the family fortune finally falls to the first male son born to either him or his cousin. Aaron fees confident, knowing that Rodrigo never has been able to make love; however, the arrival of Gaviota in his life will change Rodrigo's destiny.

As they meet, Rodrigo and the beautiful harvester feel for the first time the tremors called love; their bodies awaken a passion that dominates them and both give in completely. Rodrigo promises to Gaviota to return in a year when he finishes his doctorate to marry her. A short time later, Gaviota discovers that she is pregnant. With no idea of the size of the world, the innocent young lady decides to go to England to find Rodrigo. Deceived by a local fotographer that promises to help, Gaviota falls into the hands of a band of white dealers that send her to a brothel in Paris.

The brave young lady escapes and starts her pilgrimage in search of the man that she loves. Only, without knowing the language, her faith and her grand love will sustain her at the worst moments. Accompanied by a generous italian, and a group of english pastors, she will return to Mexico for to encounter a very different life than what she left behind; a life of pain and deception. A life in the big city, where ambition, grudges and lies reign, a life that could convert into a wall the innocent heart that initiated such fastidious trip... Destilando Amor.

Comments:
I think Joana Benedek was also in Barreras for a while. I haven't been very impressed with her, but maybe a more substantial role will give us a better chance to figure out whether she can act or not.
 

Hi everyone!

This is the remake of "cafe con aroma de mujer", arguably the best colombian telenovela of all times (1994), in which by the way Guy Ekcer was the lead actor and became famous in latin america.

I actually brought up this novela once during our Heridas de amor comments, hoping someone would watch it :). I am SO extremely glad they are doing it; finally a good telenovela!! it has already started on TV Azteca and sofar it's excellent. no worries, i won't post any spoilers :)
 

I returned from a visit to family in mexico and got hooked on this show! does anyone know where I might be able to view episodes online?? or in my local area?? Portland, OR
 

Oh, Carlos de la Mota - he was also in LFMB - he was Fern's barefoot, bongo-playing friend Eduardo. Cool!

I am hooked on Destilando Amor, but
cannot follow much of the Spanish
dialogue. Does anyone offer
translations into English of the
individual episodes.

Also, what is the actor's name who
plays the charming "dottore" Rodrigo's rival for Mariana?

Grateful for any help on these
subjects.

Zingara
