Drops of God Season 1 Episode 6 Recap
There are only three more days before the second test is over. Camille has no idea what the correct wine is, though. She decides to travel to Trento in Northern Italy with Lorenzo as a last-ditch attempt.
Lorenzo hires a flashy sports car and travels to the art gallery where the painting is situated. They question an art specialist who talks about the special bond the artist shared with her father, Nunzio Galizia.
They book a scenic hostel nearby and visit the famous artist’s family home. The owner of Galizia’s house refuses to show them around, though. Unsure of what to do next, Camille suggests they try all the white wines in the area.
However, Every vineyard in the area refuses to let Camille and Lorenzo try their wines. They are given every excuse possible, but they’re rejected every time. That night, Camille could not sleep. She speaks with the hostel’s owner, Elisabetta.
How did Elisabetta know Alexandre?
It is revealed that Elisabetta knows all about Camille and her duel. She even knew Alexandre, who would travel there to collect research for his wine guide. Elisabetta advises that Camille be persistent.
The next day, Camille and Lorenzo try all the same winemakers again, mentioning Alexandre’s guide. This scares them into allowing the tourists to sample their wines. Camille tries all the white wines in the area, but none match the flavors from the painting.
Meanwhile, in Tokyo, Issei wants answers about his parents. He steals a comb containing his father’s hair and threatens to get a DNA test to find out the truth.
Honoka begs her son not to go through with the DNA test; it will bring great dishonor to the family. Issei’s played his mother; she’s revealed the truth without needing the test.
Issei meets with journalist Yurika, who has news about his father. Hirokazu has been spotted; he’s alive. Issei isn’t that impressed, though; he feels utterly lost. He confesses to Yurika that Hirokazu isn’t his father. It is Alexandre instead.
He doesn’t know if he wants to compete in the tests anymore. They head back to his apartment. Issei opens up about his family and upbringing. Yurika kisses Issei.
Back at the guesthouse, Camille tells Elisabetta about the wine tasting. Elisabetta is saddened to hear that Camille used the guide to trick the winemakers.
Elisabetta explains that Alexandre’s guide caused businesses to go bankrupt. She realizes that Camille is just as bad as Alexandre.
Who was Pier Fossati?
The next place they visit, the owner discusses Elisabetta and her father, Pier Fossati. He was a respected winemaker, an innovator of his time. His rebellious techniques were frowned upon, though. Pier worked with his daughter; they were inseparable. Camille believes she has found the link.
Camille asks to taste Elisabetta’s table wine. It reminds her of family and legacy. Camille fully understands now why Alexandre chose this specific wine.
Elisabetta admits that this vintage was the last one she made with her father before he became ill. Alexandre wanted to use it in the guide, but they refused. Elisabetta now admits that she was wrong about Alexandre.
At the same time, in Japan, Yurika finds the same answer. She opens a box full of Alexandre’s belongings, the same one that Issei was gifted. Inside are notes on Alexandre’s lectures. The name of the wine is written next to a photograph of the painting.
Who wins the second test?
The two competitors meet for the conclusion of the second round. Camille writes Casa dei Fossati, as does Issei. They are both correct, yet Issei had decided to cross out his answer, so Camille wins by default. They are now tied. The third and final round will determine the winner of the inheritance.
Camille storms out of the meeting, furious with Issei for his supposed arrogance. She phones Thomas and tells him she’s won, but she will not take over Alexandre’s guide. It is just too much responsibility.

The episode ends with Camille telling Luca she will not take over the guide. Luca then suddenly turns somewhat villainous, informing Camille that he will make sure she fails the final test and doesn’t get the inheritance. Camille runs off, devastated by Luca’s sudden change in behavior.
