Chapter 271

Irene's heart raced as anger boiled inside her, but she forced herself to suppress it, considering the setting. She glanced at Yonas beside her, recalling what he had discussed with her grandpa at home.

Yasmine, who didn't recognize any of the professional terminology the sommeliers spouted after tasting various wines, had of course encountered unfamiliar wines as the lady of the Sanchez family. Her father used to tell her about wine tasting back home. She remained sitting in the corner, with Bernard and Lucy accompanying her. Ignoring the beef jerky in their hands, the scene appeared quite harmonious.

Just as Yasmine was about to get up and leave, Irene called out to her. "Ms. Sanchez, don't rush off. I have a bottle of red wine I'd like you and Mr. Chavez to taste."

Yasmine chuckled, "Ms. White, you're trying to invite Mr. Chavez to taste your wine, but I'm not so sure about that for me."

"Ms. Sanchez, you're mistaken. I genuinely want you to try this wine," Irene said, motioning for the server to decant the bottle. She poured glasses for everyone, including Morgan. "Give it a sip and see what kind of wine it is." Bernard looked at Irene with a hint of confusion before picking up a glass and taking a sip.

Yasmine followed suit, first sniffing the wine and observing its color. Morgan took a sip and found it indeed to be an excellent wine. Yasmine also took a sip and nodded in agreement.

Bernard placed his bottle on the table, a slight crease in his brow "Could it be the Ciel d'Hiver?" Although not as famous as Romanée-Conti, Ciel d'Hiver is quite well-known and is a favorite among many Hollywood actresses. The waiter had already brought up a bucket of ice. Unlike regular red wine, Ciel d'Hiver is made from a mix of different grape varieties: Pinot Noir, Mourvèdre, and Chardonnay, blended in various proportions to create different flavors. Yasmine disagreed with that opinion, noting that Ciel d'Hiver comes in three varieties: the Red Label, Purple Label, and Black Label.

Irene asked mischievously, "Ms. Sanchez, can you taste the difference?"

"Ciel d'Hiver," Yasmine replied.

"Are you sure it's Ciel d'Hiver?" Irene asked.
