Christopher Watkins (クリストファー・ワトキンス, Watkins Christopher) is a young American man who was sent by Charles Watkins (Christopher's father) to join in the search of the "Twelve Apostles" wines, starting from the "Ninth Apostle" and onwards, as in accordance to Yutaka Kanzaki's will.
Appearance[]
Personality[]
Although a frivolous self-admitted Japanophilia with a womanizer streak, Chris is a very sharp-minded, hard-working, and kind person, helping people along his journey. Despite knowing her feelings for Shizuku Kanzaki, Chris also develops a sincere crush on Miyabi Shinohara, though she firmly rejects his romantic overtures.
Plot[]
Raised by his wine expert father Charles Watkins, Christopher is a genius in wine tasting with experience and talent that rivals both Shizuku Kanzaki and Issei Tomine, such being was able to identify the first eight Apostles immediately after hearing the descriptions and even one-up them on a few occasions. However, at the end of the search of the "Ninth Apostle", Robert Doi criticized him for simply "copying and presenting Yutaka Kanzaki's account" without truly understanding the nature of the wine. After this setback, Christopher decided to start a journey to his refined own understanding of wine, though he still observes the "Drops of God" competition for his father and unofficially participates in looking for the Apostles.
