kanzaki shizuku

Kanzaki Shizuku is the son of Kanzaki Yutaka, a world-renowned wine critic who recently passed away, leaving behind an extensive wine collection. To inherit his father's legacy, Shizuku must locate 13 specific wines: the "12 Apostles" and "The Drops of God," as detailed in his father's will. His main competitor is Toomine Issei, a celebrated young wine critic and Yutaka's adopted son. Shizuku has no prior experience or knowledge of wines but possesses keen senses of taste and smell, along with memories from time spent with his father. Supported by friends and colleagues such as sommelier trainee Shinohara Miyabi, Shizuku delves into the world of wine. He aims to unravel the mysteries surrounding the 13 wines and ultimately triumph over Toomine Issei. (Source: Wikipedia)
