The Drops of God

神の雫

The main character of the manga, a young man called Shizuku Kanzaki, discovers the beauty of wine after his father, a famous wine critic, dies and leaves an unusual will: a description of 12 wines he considers to be the best in the world, comparing them to Jesus Christ’s disciples.

The first person to find these “disciples” will inherit the father’s wine collection, a contest that pits Shizuku against his adoptive brother, Issey Tomine, who works as a sommelier.

SUPPORTING

Shizuku Kanzaki and Miyabi Shinohara went looking for Robert as Shiro Fujieda told them he was their last hope trying to find a replacement wine for '99 Henri Jayer. They found him homeless living in a selfmade cardboard house, but he refused to come out until he heard for what they were looking him for. When he heard Shizuku was drinking wine only since yesterday, he decided to test them and dig out couple of wine bottles he had hid himself. He then gave Shizuku two glasses saying he must find the secret between them. After tasting them and thinking, Shizuku told Robert the wines were the same and were made from same vineyard. Robert then started laughing and explained he was correct. He then pulled another bottle from his stash and gave it to Shizuku. As they left, Robert commented that Yutaka's son had ripened.
