Miyabi Shinohara is a sommelier apprentice working in a French restaurant. She is very knowledgeable in all matters related to wine and has shown some talents in wine tasting. However, due to bad luck and a possible lack of intuition, she has failed to pass the Sommelier qualification exam several times. She was subsequently contracted by Sun Beer to work as a consultant for its wine department.

She has been supporting Shizuku with her knowledge about wine, but Shizuku often mocks her to be too bookish about wine. She almost always appears together with Shizuku, and harbors special feelings toward him. One repeated comedic relief in the story depicts Miyabi as having the habit of bringing a male friend to her apartment to drink wine, and almost always ending up drunk and waken up realizing she has undressed herself to her panties while drunk.
