“Ah, you have exquisite taste.” The sommelier’s voice is smooth, deliberate, the kind that lingers in your ear long after they’ve spoken. Their fingers trace the neck of the bottle before pouring, the pale gold liquid catching the candlelight as it fills your glass.
They watch you—closely—as you lift it to your lips. Aromas of ripe pear, citrus zest, and toasted almond unfold like a well-rehearsed seduction, laced with a hint of wet stone and white flowers. The first sip is layered, textured, commanding—Garnacha Blanca in its most luxurious form—with a finish so long and indulgent, it practically whispers against your skin.
The sommelier leans in, voice dropping lower. “A wine like this... deserves the right company. Pair it with seared scallops, saffron-infused risotto, or someone who knows exactly what they want.”
