I will show you the secrets of the universe at the bottom of a glass of wine…
Victor Morell, a sommelier in low hours, receives from an anonymous emissary an unusual mission: to find a unique bottle, known among the initiated as the wine of the alchemist. Disappeared almost two centuries ago, the writings of the time claim that this wine gives to those who drink it an existential knowledge unheard of for mankind. Victor embarks on an uncertain and dangerous journey that will take him from the vineyards of Priorat to the remote landscapes of Turkestan, passing through Paris, St. Petersburg or the hills of Tuscany.
But he will soon realize that he is not the only one chasing the relic. While he competes with Sofia, a neuropsychiatrist convinced that the properties of wine alter the consciousness of those who drink it, powerful pharmaceutical companies, business emporiums and esoteric organizations are on their heels in an all-out race to get their hands on it. But which of them will succeed in unlocking the secrets of the alchemist’s wine, and what price will they have to pay for it?
