"It's powerful," Shizuku says of a 2001 Bordeaux, suddenly overwhelmed with images of a turntable, guitars and Freddie Mercury. "But it also has a meltingly sweet taste, with an acidic aftertaste that catches you by surprise.

*snerk* This is one of the reasons I think I'll always love manga--in the right hands, any subject can become pure, world-destroying Awesome. Wine, baking bread, eating bento, board games....
This almost wants to make me seek out scanlations. The part about the wine being reminiscent of Freddie Mercury's voice is so bizarre that it's awesome. Well, hell, if Japan can get awesome manga out of ancient board games, boxing, and cute little talking microbes . . .
Suddenly, though, his father dies and leaves in his will a description of 12 wines he considers the world's best, comparing them to the disciples of Jesus.
Someone please, please, please adapt this into an anime.
