They Would Make Rosé Wine In Range Village

“Sebastian, what do you think?”

“Yes. I tasted some before it was served and… I think it can be used.”

“I see…”

So Sebastian had already tasted it.

In that case, maybe I could have left the explaining to him after all?

Well, it was already done, so that’s fine.

“Mixing Ramogi into wine… It’s a new idea. And while the color has changed, it is a nice color. And there are no issues with the taste. …Mr. Takumi.”

“Yes?”

“If you agree to it Mr. Takumi, how about producing this in Range village?”

“In Range village?”

After getting the confirmation from Sebastian, Mr. Ekenhart nodded and then made this suggestion to me.

Make this in Range village, huh…

“As for me, I would have no objections to that… But what about the grapes?”

“Indeed. They were buying them from Count Barsler, were they not?”

“Yes. A different merchant from the usual one arrived and gave them the glass sphere..”

“As for the grapes, there is no issue there. We have many vineyards on our lands. There are plenty of other merchants that will be happy to sell to them.”

“Hmmm… Well, the original merchant will have to be investigated… But it seems like the acquiring of the grapes will not be a problem. And it is for a good cause. The making of delicious wine. And so I will handle it myself.”

The original merchant was clearly working for Count Barsler.

Perhaps he was even actively involved in the plot. So it would not be wise to continue to buy from him without knowing more.

Besides, I very much doubted that Mr. Hannes or the others would want to buy from him anyway.

However, as I was thinking about this, Ms. Anne then assured us.

Since there were plenty of other people selling grapes, we could always rely on them.

I didn’t know if they would be of the same quality, but since they were harvested in the same territory, they couldn’t be that different. So it would probably be fine.

“I think Range village would be very grateful to know that you are going to handle things.”

“Indeed. After all, it is very far away. And so there is nothing that a small village could do on its own… At worst, they would not be able to acquire any grapes and would have to stop making wine altogether. And so I will look into the matter so that they will be able to buy grapes as soon as possible. Sebastian.”

“Yes, certainly.”

If Mr. Ekenhart was going to act, then that would be a big comfort.

The duke’s house really was powerful.

After being called by Mr. Ekenhart, Sebastian nodded and left the dining hall.

He would do some research and find information to help make the decisions.

“Now, Range village won’t have to lose its industry.”

“You could say that losing this wine would be a major loss.”

“Mmm. Also, we’ll have to think about how to sell it… People will not understand what it is if it is sold the normal way.”

“Indeed…”

“How is it usually sold?”

As someone who had become heavily involved with Range village, I would be very happy if they didn’t lose their source of income.

Even Ms. Claire agreed that it would be a great loss, as she had become fond of its taste.

It was rare for me to come across a wine that I enjoyed this much, and so I also thought that it would be a waste to not be able to drink it anymore.

…And I’m sure Phillip would agree, if he was here.

“Usually it is sold in barrels. Great barrels, if they are in taverns or places where they are consumed in large quantities. Otherwise…they are sold in small barrels.”

“I see… Would it be too difficult to sell them in bottles?”

“Well…indeed. It would definitely be more expensive, but…perhaps it will make it look more luxurious as well.”

“And people will also be able to see the color.”

“I think more people will want to buy it when they see the color.”

“It really is pretty.”

When I asked Mr. Ekenhart about how it was sold, he said that it was usually sold in barrels.

Because it was more expensive to make bottles.

And since the village was hardly wealthy, they could not afford to spend money on that.

But since Ms. Claire and Ms. Anne were so enamored by the color, it was probably true that showing it off in glass would allow us to sell it at a higher price as well.

“It will surely be very popular among women.”

“Yes. Not only the taste of the rosé wine, but the color is so appealing.”

“…Rosé wine?”

“Yes. This color wine…that is neither red or white is called that… Is that not the case here?”

“Hmm. All wine is just called wine. We don’t change the name based on the color.”

Well, I didn’t actually know by what definition something was considered rosé wine. But since the color was similar, I just decided to call it that.

“Then this is rosé wine… Perhaps we could sell it as a completely new kind of wine.”

“Yes… Something different from anything else… The taste may not be all that different, but it is sweet with a mild bitterness…and it has a pretty color. There is enough to separate it from the others. That does not sound bad.”

“Indeed. Bottle them… And if sold while emphasizing the appearance, it should do very well.”

“Since it’s not just the color, but the taste is also good… It will surely be a popular product.”

And so it was decided that it would be called rosé wine, and would be bottled and sold as something unusual.

…It was rather odd to have Ms. Anne there, giving her opinions on how the duke would conduct his business, but I decided to not mention it.

Obviously, it was a rather awkward situation, but I suppose we were both currently guests here… And I was giving my opinion as well.

It was a good thing to hear the opinions of as many people as possible, and I suppose it showed how open-minded the duke was.
