The audio clip begins with the faint sound of a large wine bottle being carefully placed on a ceramic floor. The distinctive clink of glass against the hard surface resonates, echoing a bit in the surrounding quiet. A soft scrape follows, perhaps the bottle being slid or adjusted minutely. There's a sense of anticipation, perhaps in preparation for a celebration. The bottle is hefty, filled with promise. It's January 1, 2017, could be the remnants of a New Year's Eve party, or the start of a new celebration. The wine inside waits patiently, its rich flavors contained within the glass confines. The occasional clink of the bottle against the ceramic floor punctuates the audio, a constant reminder of the presence of the wine bottle.
