"Mm, but would he tell me the truth? I wonder... but I doubt it would make it taste any better."
Well no, Vere was not a wine snob, not at all, he just was certain that the wine was edging closer to vinegar due to age and that was certainly unforgivable. Or maybe it was his own taste that was at fault. He had been living roughly in the past and while his condition now has improved, he still sometimes carelessly spoke and acted like the ruffian he had been during his travels. He had to remind himself that matters were different and to behave, so with a slight smile he turned his attention to the young lady that spoke and realized that she was a lot younger than he had thought.
"That is, if he does not think my questioning his wares as rude. But enough of that, have you come to share tales? The fire is warm and I find myself bored of the usual conversations."
