🍇 Character Archetypes (Pick One as inspiration) • The Overheated Sommelier: Linen everything, rolled sleeves, tasting notebook stuck to sweaty forearm, sunglasses you insist are “for terroir analysis.” • The Rosé Academic: Pastel linens, airy vibes, maybe a bowtie made of something ridiculous like seersucker. • The Heatstroke Bordeaux Bro: Short‑sleeve button‑down, tailored shorts, loafers with no socks, and the confidence of a man who says “I’m getting notes of plum” even when drinking house red. • The Prosecco Maximalist: Sparkly accents, metallic accessories, breezy fabrics, chaotic good energy. • The Natural Wine Hipster: Cropped trousers, tank or mesh, tattoos optional but encouraged, tote bag that says something pretentious like “Unfiltered.”
