Skyfire Avenue Chapter 360: Tasting

"Drink?" Obel and Devilland's voice became a little weird. "Drink well, drink well! After all, he can only be a legend that's all. + Vertex Novel," in There seemed to be a bit of hatred in his voice. There is no doubt that there is a story between Three Wine Gods.

"Since you like wine, stay here. Your luck is good. The vines here are finally old enough to start making wine. So far, three years have just been produced. You can try You can also try hops. If you have tried my previous wine, you should be able to compare. "

Wine Master rejoices: "That's really great, thank you for your generosity." He loved wine throughout his life and was able to taste the wine made by the legendary Wine God in person. This is really wonderful and even more exciting for him. Yes, Obel and Devilland are still alive.

"Gate, take them, and then come back, I want to hear their opinions." Obel, Devilland said lightly.

Gate made a call gesture. After Wine Master, Lan Jue and Beggar saluted to the vines transformed by Obel and Devilland at the same time, he left under the leadership of Gate.

Everything I just experienced is too legendary for the three of them. The drc legend Wine God is still alive, and still alive in this way. Can humans really survive by being transformed into plants? Not to mention, this Wine God still maintains a strong strength. No wonder his Paragon field is a vine, he has even turned himself into a vine!

Under Gate's leadership, this time they really entered the castle.

As soon as you enter the door, a strong taste of white oak strikes. The interior of the old castle is hollow. Looks empty. There are only some huge wooden barrels. These barrels are ten meters high, and their diameter is probably more than six meters. I don't know what they are for.

Gate said: "We have always used the most traditional biodynamics to make wine. The so-called biodynamics means that we never use any mechanized production, and everything depends on biodynamics. For example, we are turning When the soil is used, horses and cows are used to pull the fence, and when grapes are picked, they must be manually selected, and only the best grapes are selected for brewing.

"In order to restore all seven wines of traditional drc, we worked **** the soil, and then irrigated it with control to the water of Lingjing Lake. Despite this, by no means is completely derived from Nature, but we have already simulated the Mother Star Former Era environment as much as possible. At present, all the vines are more than 40 years old. The grapes produced in different plots are aged in oak barrels for 18 months or 20 years. Four months. Unfortunately, now there are more old barrels at does not have. The taste of oak barrels will have a greater impact on the wine. The first three years of production, the first vintage has been bottled. The other two years are still bottled. Aged in Mouton, which is hops. "

Lan Jue said: "Can we taste all the wines from these three years?"

Gate gave him a glance, and nodded, "Yes. Lord Devilland is OK, please. Follow me."

Walking into the castle, the simple stone steps appeared in front of them. The stone steps were under the turns to. Gate walked in front, and the others followed in his behind and went down.

While walking, Gate said, "Traditional wine cellars must be ten meters underground or deeper, and the temperature must be maintained at twelve to fifteen degrees all year round, and there must be a certain humidity. With time becomes longer, there will be dust and mold here, but all this is part of brewing fine wine. Because everything has to be started from the beginning, it also needs to be accumulated. As early as the Mother Star era, there were once thousands of years of inheritance. The winery, of course, also has a thousand years of old wine. "

Wine Master asks, "What about the old wine tradition of drchas or doesn't have?"

Gai nodded, "I have it."

Wine Master: "Is it saved with spatial technology?"

Gate shook his head and said, "No, Lord DeVillan kept a complete wine cellar and brought it out. Everything in the cellar remains intact, but by no means is here. The old wine in there I have always been without movement, and as to whether they are still alive, I do n’t know. "

Evaluating the condition of an old bottle, the most important thing is whether it is still alive.

The so-called alive means that the wine is still drinkable. If it is not drinkable, general will say that it is old. Because of improper storage, or time is too long, the wine may grow old.

After listening to Gett words, Lan Jue and Wine Master's eyes lighted up, even also has been stored from Former Era to the present wine? And does not have is stored in any spatial technology, even the most demanding wine cellars, and the possibility of alive is very small.

Thinking that they had reached the bottom of the stone steps, Gate pushed open the two wooden doors and led them in.

The world behind the wooden door, first of all, has a strong taste of white oak. The quaint stone pillars support the wine cellar. Looking out, rows of oak barrels are neatly arranged. Each row has two layers and two barrels above. The next two barrels extend all the way to the distance.

"Because it has just begun, there are currently more than 2,100 barrels of wine, with an average of about 700 barrels per year. The first year has just recently started bottling, and the third one has just been bottled."

The wine cellar is large, but there are many places in it that are still empty, which are obviously reserved for future winemaking.

Lan Jue couldn't help asking: "Mr. Gate, what is the way forward for your wine?"

Gate glanced at him, "In terms of Western Alliance, we will help us sell these wines."

"Western Alliance?" Lan Jue's eyes moved slightly, as if thinking about something.

Gate does not have continues this topic, and continues to take them to visit the entire wine cellar. After walking down a circle, he brings a cylindrical barrel with a metal bell mouth on it.

Beggar whispered to nearby Wine Master: "What is this?"

Wine Master said: "This is called a spit bucket, which is only available in the wine cellar. It is used by the tasters and Bartender when tasting hops or wine. After all, everyone's wine is limited and impossible. Drink every type of wine, so after tasting, if you are worried about the amount of wine, you can spit it in this spit. But this refers to drinking the wine in the mouth. If you do n’t drink it, it is allowed to pour. Back to Mouton. Treasure every drop of water of life. "

Gate smiled a little more at Wine Master, nodded to him, and handed the glasses to the three of them. One person.

"Start with hops that have just been put into the barrel. Try hops. The imagination is required. A good Wine Master can taste this wine really well by the taste of hops." Take out a long glass tube, there is a rubber sleeve at the end of the glass tube, and if you look carefully, you can see that there is a small hole at the bottom.

He walked to an oak barrel, pulled out a small white stopper above it, then pierced the glass tube into it, and then pressed the small hole on the back to pull out the glass tube. Immediately, one tube was dark red The liquor was taken out. This is the use of atmospheric pressure to extract wine.

Put some wine in the middle of each cup, and then return the remaining wine in the glass tube to the barrel. Gate made a please gesture.

Lan Jue shook the wine glass and sent it to the nose to smell it. The taste was a bit weird. by no means is aroma, but with a little sourness, and some by no means flavor.

He took a sip into his mouth, and sure enough, the first thing he felt was the sour taste, the taste of also grapes. The so-called hops, especially this new hop, are more grape juice.

The sour taste is mixed with the taste of grapes, which makes the first taste of Lan Jue feel a bit weird, but he swallowed it. The name written on this barrel is vivian, which is Saint Viven in drc, which is also good. Wine! Unexpectedly, its hops turned out to have this taste.

The sourness does not last for a long time, but the aroma gradually diffuses. There is no doubt that there is a gap between hops and wine, and by no means is so delicious, but it is definitely a novel experience. Lan Jue knows the taste of wine well, but hops are the first time, at least he doesn't have that imagination yet.

Tasting a barrel, a barrel of hops, seven kinds of wine, seven kinds of hops. Gradually, he tasted a difference, especially when the last Romanée-Conti, Lan Jue eyes can not help but release a surprise light. Can't help but laugh: "The best wine in the past must first be the best grape juice!"

The cap nodded and said, "indeed is so. Just like the best champagne, it must be the best white wine. Even the does not have bubble is equally charming. The reason is the same."

Lan Jue is better than thumbs.

After the taste of the most beginner hops, the advanced hops that have been stored in wooden barrels for more than one year, time, the taste has really changed. However, what made them even more look forward to the real finished wine.

Drinking from the lowest Vivian, the brick red liquor exudes seductive fragrance, Pinot Noir's ultimate one by one show, everyone drank each glass, and the emotions of the three became more and more excited. . This can be seen from the brightness of their eyes.

Finally, the wine is tasted and the glass is returned to Gate.

Beggar frowned and shook his head slightly.

"What's wrong?" Lan Jue asked him.

Beggar said: "Perhaps because of the different taste, Romanée-Conti is excellent, but also has a strong penetrating power, as if it can penetrate into human cells, but this bottle of wine is a bit young, but also There seems to be a lack of feeling, not only the sense of explosion that does not have Krohabba understands, but also something else.
