the grape.

Wine is made from grape must, which undergoes a natural fermentation process through the action of yeasts that transform the sugar present in the grape into alcohol and carbon dioxide.

When there's no more sugar in the liquid, the yeasts die and the fermentation ends.

So the grape came into this world to either be eaten or to be turned into wine.

If it's eaten, well, its mission on earth is over.

But if it's turned into wine, its life will be prolonged for many, many years, and in the best cases, for centuries.

This transformation is a very tough process for a grape.

And you'll soon understand what I'm trying to say here.

The same processes the grape undergoes happened to our heroine today.

Her name is Cristina, a widow, with three children, who turned the loss of her husband 30 years ago into something wonderful.

Just like wine.

But like the grape before turning into wine, Cristina went through hell and back.

Today, the hero’s cape will be worn by a woman.
