The '89 Vintage
Valdelena winery, the night of the annual tasting. One bottle of the '89 vintage was left in the world, and it was there, in the glass cube that serves as a tasting room in the middle of the barrel hall, half uncorked in front of fourteen people who had travelled to taste it. The power went out for four minutes. When the light came back the bottle was gone, the cork was not, and nobody has left the hall: the shop door has been locked since nine.

I never left the bottling line.
♀Odelia

I was hanging around the bottling line. 2 of us were in there. I could see the tasting room, and there was one person there.
♂Fabian

The shop is where I was. Where Cyprian was is the bottling line. What Neva is telling you is a lie.
