Fortunato is a conssoisseur (professional taster) of wine. How does the narrator, Montressor, use this to lure Fortunato in? Consider what Montressor appeals to as well.

Answer and Explanation:

This question refers to Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Cask of Amontillado". Montresor is the narrator. He wishes to carry out his vengeance against his friend Fortunato. He does not specify the reasons why, simply stating Fortunato had somehow offended him.

In order to lure Fortunato to his family's catacombs, Montresor uses the fact that Fortunato is a wine connoisseur. He claims to have obtained a barrel of Amontillado but, saying he has his doubts, asks Fortunato to come and taste it to make sure. Montresor also appeals to Fortunato's pride. To make sure his friend will want to come along, he mentions another connoisseur, Luchresi. That makes Fortunato jealous, since he believes himself to be the best there is. Thus, Montresor successfully deceives and lures his friend.
