Overview
The Martikovs' winery: a tasting room with a long bar, Davian's office, the fermenting hall with its great vats, a bottling room, and the stair down to the cellars. The druids have made it their barracks.
The winery smells of old wine gone to vinegar and of something else under it, green and wet, like a pond in summer. The floorboards have been pried up in rows, as if someone were looking for something.
Resting: Safe: a Long Rest here isn't interrupted.

Quests and lore
The winery ledger
The Martikov ledger, in three hands over three generations. Casks out: to Vallaki, to the village under the castle, to Krezk, to the abbey on the hill. The last column, in Davian's heavy hand, stops three months ago in the middle of a line. Further back, a page with one entry and nothing else on it: Elvir. Spring. No cask this year.
