The private treasure of the president of the wealthy family Ⅰ

Chapter 1099 Contest ([-]) The second round begins! !

In the quiet white hall, the crystal booths have long been removed, and then a five-meter-long dining table is placed, with a snow-white silk tablecloth on it, and three platinum carved candlesticks. There is an inexplicable sense of tension!Exquisite wine decanters, illuminated by candlelight, reveal crystal-like light. Numerous decanters are shaped like snakes, gourds, pianos, and five-layer funnels. There are simple and popular decanters, most of which are narrow at the top and round and loose at the bottom, glowing with absolutely beautiful and delicate lines...

Countless sommeliers stood on the edge of the table, looking at the various decanters and the various wines that the staff gradually brought in!

Various wines from the old and new world, all trapezoidal, carefully placed on the table, including Pinot Noir from Burgundy, one of the most noble grape varieties, and Cabernet Sauvignon from Bordeaux, the most durable in the world The existing varieties include New World red wines from the United States, Chile, and South Africa... It is said that the secret of wine lies in time, whether it is long-lasting red wine or young wine from the New World, all have their own secrets. The time period can be long or short, ranging from more than 400 years to over [-] years, or as short as several months in oak barrels before being bottled for drinking within a short period of time! !

Wine has the difference between red wine and white wine. Usually white wine, pink wine, etc. are made of Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Blanc, Misca, or pink wine. Store it, and it will give off a spring-like atmosphere. Generally, there is no need to sober up, including rare botrytized wines, ice wines and other wines with a sweetness of up to [-] grams. It is not recommended to sober up. Just chill one or two bottles before opening the bottle. Hours, you can drink it within about an hour after opening the bottle, but in any case, drinking wine is a romantic journey that belongs to your taste buds and your own sensory enjoyment. Start from your own thinking!

The body of red wine is different from that of white wine, especially the old wine. After decades or even hundreds of years of storage, the tannin structure of the wine body is tight, the wine is hard, and the sediment caused by oxidation must be processed. Sobering up, that is, changing the bottle, transitioning the bottom of the bottle, allowing the tannins to combine with the oxygen in the air, softening the tannins, releasing the key to time, so that the body of the wine is fully awakened, releasing the wine that has been stored in the bottom of the wine for many years Layers of aromas inside, the first-class red wine, the moment you open the bottle, you will find its aroma, like an intoxicating ribbon, with various flavors, lingering mistyly Around you, wine masters have different definitions for the time of sobering up. Some say that the time for sobering up of old wine does not need to be long, but in the wine tasting tour, it is true that some wines are decades old, and there are no five to six hours. Fragrance cannot be released...

Regardless of the dispute, sobering up, this is the moment when the bottle is opened, until it is delivered to the taste buds of the guests. This is an elegant and long process. It is a wonderful process to experience whether the sommelier is proficient and the temperament is extraordinary. In many Western countries, countless Guests especially love to appreciate the coherent and wonderful movements of the sommelier in front of the romantic and warm atmosphere and the flickering candlelight...

At this time, Holly smiled and held the documents in her hands. She watched the sommeliers standing on the wall not far from the dining table, looking at the dining table in silence. She nodded slightly to everyone before continuing. Said: "Congratulations to the players who can advance to the second round of the theoretical competition. Before everyone enters the field, our conference has set up a small checkpoint to temporarily relax the emotions for the tense competition. In front of you , a total of 36 bottles of wine from the old and new world, including decades of wine from the old world countries such as France and Italy, and red wine from the new world of the United States and Chile. You can choose a bottle of red wine among them and pair it with a suitable decanter , choose to sober up! And in the process of sobering up, the three points obtained will be recorded in the later theoretical quiz assessment. Of course, it only occupies a small score! However, I still want to give you A kind reminder, in the process of sobering up, if there is a broken bottle, you may not be able to sober up, and if it is serious, you will be withdrawn from the competition!! Of course, I believe that it is absolutely impossible for everyone to have such a terrible experience! Sober up now Time to start! Time 10 minutes! Thank you everyone!"

After Heli finished speaking, she turned around and ordered the staff to press the timing card, and the 10-minute time began to count down bit by bit...

Several sommeliers stood aside, first staring deeply at the rows of red wine on the table, pondered in silence for a while, and then gradually walked towards the table, staring at the red wine on the wine bottle. All kinds of wine labels, wine labels symbolize the spirit, appearance and attitude of a winery!The styles of wine labels are different, there are English-like fonts, artistic wine labels with changing colors, and even castle patterns as wine labels. The wine label of Chateau Mouton, one of the five famous French chateaus, has always been It is the most sought-after product by collectors, because each wine label design is designed by a top-notch artist, and the most famous is Picasso’s Dionysus offering, which can be called the most expensive wine label in the world. A must for wine collectors! !It's just that the year on the wine label is 1973, and the Bordeaux wine of 1973 is actually mediocre.

All the sommeliers have analyzed the winery, year, place of origin, first-class wine, or second-class wine according to the different labels of each bottle of wine, so as to choose the wine body and suitable decanter. Mu Ziling is also browsing various The body of the wine, and the professional eyes on her face, since she was five years old, she has followed her father in and out of the family's amazing wine cellar, and witnessed the moment when the world's most expensive wines were opened, the wine's Fragrance, like the incarnation of the soul of the wine fairy, came to her with the vitality of life, her eyes moved, and then looked at the various wine bottles bit by bit...

Tang Kexin was alone, standing in front of the wall with a pale face, her eyes blinked heavily, but only the white light was left, like the light of heaven, there was no shadow around her, she was too lonely to scream, she wanted to take a step towards He walked forward, but his feet were firmly nailed to the ground, his hands clenched into fists, and his nails seemed to be inserted into the flesh...

He Li solemnly accompanied the supervisor, standing at this end, watching the sommeliers concentrating on picking wine, but she was surprised to see Tang Kexin standing alone in front of the wall, her face was pale, her eyes There were messy lights floating around, as if staring left and right, not wanting to move forward, so she walked over a little strangely, and asked with concern: "Miss Tang Kexin, how are you?"

Ya Le's voice also came nervously from beside his ears: "Miss Tang! There are still 8 minutes left! Your sobering up time is almost over!!"

Listening to Tang Kexin's words, her face turned pale, her eyes moved quickly, she was panting heavily, but she still didn't move...

"Miss Tang!" Heli looked at Tang Kexin intently again, and reminded her kindly: "Is there anything you can do for you? You look very uncomfortable! Perhaps, do you need to call a doctor?"

"No need!" Tang Kexin raised her face quickly, widened her eyes wide and wide, as if she saw He Li, and said heavily! !But at this moment, she wanted to take a step inexplicably, but the back of her head was numb, and her eyes flickered with a suppressed light, she didn't even know that the dining table was there! !She didn't even know that the wine bottle was there! !What does a decanter look like!She doesn't know anything! !

A burst of anger revealing sadness and excitement, smashed away! !

Tang Kexin's eyes widened, and cold sweat overflowed from her forehead, sliding down her face!

The whole world fell silent. Vitas, Lawrence, Boyi and other judges frowned and looked at Tang Kexin strangely. Zhuang Haoran and Jiang Tianlei looked at her even more nervously, wondering what happened?

At this moment, Jiang Zichen was standing in front of the wine table, his cold face turned sideways to Tang Kexin, his sharp eyes glanced at her, and he quickly picked up a bottle of 1992 from the famous American Screaming Eagle Winery. Created by Ms., although the house changed hands for 2006 million US dollars in 3000, it did not damage its status in the wine industry!In particular, the "garage wine" she brewed became the favorite of rich people in San Francisco in the early 20s. The famous wine critic Mr. Parker once commented that the wine body of his winery was above 90 points in many years. point! !Jiang Zichen picked up the corkscrew, pointed at Tang Kexin sharply from the side, and waved his slender and beautiful fingers. Holding the knife of the corkscrew, he spun it quickly in an instant, cut off the cap of the wine, and quickly took the screwdriver. The knife pierced the wine cork and pulled out the cork in an instant. At that moment, a strong aroma of wine rushed out like an eagle. The deep purple light band revealed the explosive fruit, coffee, Fur, wild fungus and other aromas quickly entered everyone's sense of smell, without even giving you a chance to think, it immediately conquered your entire spiritual thoughts! !

Tang Kexin smelled the strong aroma of wine, her eyes lit up instantly, and according to her strong sense of smell, she walked quickly along the aroma——

Mu Ziling followed Heli to care about Tang Kexin just now, and couldn't help turning her face and looking at her suspiciously! !

Tang Kexin walked forward quickly, and she was about to reach the wine table. Mu Ziling suspected that her eyes could not see, so she immediately went under the table, and wanted to stretch her feet to tickle secretly, wondering if there was anything wrong with her eyes ...

Tang Kexin's eyes were shining with urgency, and as she shook her hands, she was about to touch the dining table. Who knew that when she was walking forward, her high-heeled shoes unconsciously stepped on Mu Ziling's protruding high-heeled shoes. Leaping forward, he reached a certain wine decanter with his hand, and the wine decanter rolled and fell off the dining table in an instant——
