The way I've been grinding wine is to just do Lyme's Pygmalion storylet over and over and mass-converting Glim->Map Scrap->Zee-Stories into Absinthe. It also grants Making Waves that way.

When I asked awhile ago, people recommended doing the Affair of the Box for whatever wines reward it was.

Social Actions: send them to Kade Carrion (she/her; no Tournament of Lilies, please). an_ocelot has gone NORTH and cannot benefit from social actions!
Possibly-Useful Things: Spreadsheets and hints and link collections, oh my.

I just did the math comparing Affair of the Box to Riding the Savage Cobbles. They are almost the same:
RtSC: 15 actions for 7 Broken Giant 1844
AotB: 15 actions for 7 Broken Giant 1844 plus 5 Intriguing Gossip or, on a rare success, 2 Uncanny Incunabulum. (And -5 CP Church.)
So yeah, as others already had shown but I decided doing it out was lazier than trying to find the proofs, the Box is the way to go.
