At the carnival, Fortunato was already half drunk when the narrator (Montresor) informed him that he has purchased a pipe of Amontillado wine but is not sure he had gotten the genuine article. He should, he says, have consulted Fortunato, who prides himself on being an expert on wine, adding that because Fortunato is engaged, he will go instead to Luchesi. Knowing his victim’s vanity, Montresor baits him by saying that some fools argue that Luchesi’s taste is as fine as Fortunato’s. The latter is hooked, and Montresor conducts him to his empty palazzo and leads him down into the family catacombs. Please mark me brainliest. I hope you have a nice day/night :)
