The manga series "The Drops of the Gods" follows Shizuku Kanzaki as he learns about wine, allowing the reader to do the same. At the start of the series, Shizuku has rebelled against his father, a famous wine critic, by refusing to drink wine and working instead for a brewery. Suddenly, though, his father dies and leaves in his will a description of 12 wines he considers the world's best, comparing them to the disciples of Jesus.
