13 bottles of wine stand
upright
on the tasting-room countertop.
The Tender picks up the first
of those standing side by
side
and lifts it high into the
air,
Saying, "This bottle is broken
for you!"
and then smashes it to the
floor.
With all the wine gushing
out,
The Tender then says, "This
wine
is poured out for you."
12 bottles of wine now lay
sideways
stacked in a proper rack.
Sideways is always better,
so the cork
can expand and best protect
the wine
from the punishment of Zin. |
