Der Duft von weißem Burgunder

The lush descriptions and detailed wine history made me curious about how much research went into creating such an authentic setting. Did real vineyards influence the story's backdrop?

Switching between past and present added layers to the characters' journeys, but I wonder if it also made it harder to stay engaged at times. What was others' experience with the structure?

The romance felt tender without overshadowing the historical context, but I’m curious how intentional that balance was during the writing process.
