The Curse of Bacchus

The Curse of Bacchus

This is not just the story of wine, it is the story of its ruin. Sweet, deep, versatile, wine offered us comfort and celebration, love and oblivion. But even the most exquisite can fall... when the gods feel betrayed.

And then, everything changed. The fury of Bacchus was unleashed upon the world, and his curse fell like a shadow upon the vine.

"From the bottom of every glass rose a human echo, until the god of wine decided to silence it."

Every bottle opened released a rancid, strange aroma, as if time itself had stagnated inside. Every grape dulled the teeth when tasted, as if sweetness had been erased from the world. Wine —a symbol of celebration, art, and culture— began to die, and with it, a part of the human soul.

And yet, not all was lost... Thanks to science, passionate cuisine, and an unexpected twist of fate, the pleasure of raising a glass once again became possible.

The reader is invited on a journey through vineyards and laboratories, between love and nostalgia, drama and hope, between myth and modernity. In these pages, they will discover the story of a tragic, mysterious curse, but not entirely irreversible.
