Ryan waited for a moment but not hearing the footsteps coming his way he thought only of having a taste of some wine.
Seeing the year dates of decades gone by he dusted this label and that bottle looking for maybe a good bottle of red wine from 1942. His memory of that wine and that date was spurned on by an old movie his father owned. "The 49th Parallel" it was as Leslie Howard, actor did discuss enjoying the wine and made quite the impression on Ryan's young mind.
"Ther it is!" exclaimed Ryan his eyes not believing the label on a bottle of wine.
Picking it up slowly his young hands craddled the bottle as if it were the real treasure is really was!
Dusting off the label he heald it up to one of the dim lighted bulbs hanging from the ceiling joists above his head.
"Ardennais, Full bodied" was hand written on the wine bottle label.
A pocket knife works wonders as with a poke and some weasling the cork comes out with a loud POP.
A sniff of the French countries' famous red wine brings to Ryan an air of years gone by. Years he did not know but saw on his Father's old video. This was the chance meeting of a lifetime and for the young person a time of true joy.
Tipping the bottle up to touch his lips he let a small sip enter his mouth. The big bold flavor of that red wine was like its heritage was known for and for the those who knew how to enjoy wine was a pure pleasure of taste.
Now the tongue blocked the bottle's flow nolonger and with a rush came the sweet flavor of this strange and wonderous find.
