Chapter 1350: A Victory or Defeat

Within the European Wine Industry Association, there is actually a set of "non-standard ratings" for fine wines.

A "Grade" level wine, if it is a blended wine, it is a master level.

The "S-class" is completely a supreme-level and rare-level existence. Usually, the "S-class" comes from the hands of the master craftsman and belongs to the ingenuity of the master craftsman.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as the "Encounter" wine, which is also rated "S", but it is not written by a master craftsman.

However, among the materials used in the "encounter", there is a rarity.

Even for every "S-grade" wine, the raw materials are either rare, or extremely fine, extremely rare.

For example, a certain wine must be made with grapes specific to a certain region, and the best of the best must be selected.

Some people even say that "S-grade" wine represents an extreme from the source of raw materials.

From this point of view, the possibility that Bai Xiaosheng can concoct "S-grade" wine is almost non-existent.

After all, while the variety of mixology prepared by Château Ferro is one of the best on the market, there is still some way to go before it reaches that level.

However, in the eyes of a person like Mo Xin, who is proficient in dozens of "A-grade" wines, the wine prepared by Bai Xiaosheng actually brought all the prosaic raw materials to the extreme, completely surpassing the level of "A-grade".

Even, touched the edge of the "S-class"!

It's not impossible to say that this wine is an "S-grade" entry!

The key is the "S-level" of the master's ingenuity, which also requires a lot of effort and time to make, like Bai Xiaosheng, who walks around leisurely and casually adjusts to this level, it is a miracle!

So much so that even Mo Xin, a god-level bartender, known as the first person with talent under her teacher, was amazed, and even blurted out that he was "S-level"!

The guests present were in public, and there were also some insiders, who knew or heard of the set of "non-standard ratings", and even knew what "A" and "S-level" mean!

"No, he ...... If you make a casual sake, you can reach 'S grade'!"

"This、This is too exaggerated, it's an 'S-grade' wine made by the master craftsman, and it's not so understated, right?!"

"What is the taste of 'S-grade' wine, I really want to taste it!"

"yes, I'm ...... too"

Under the words of those in the know, more and more guests know what Mo Xin's "S-level" means!

No one is shocked!

Even those who were not optimistic about Bai Xiaosheng were speechless.

On the one hand, Mo Xin's reputation and character are spread far and wide in the circle, and they are not allowed to believe it, nor are they allowed to question his character.

On the other hand, the fact that that unknown young man could easily reach that super-god level made them feel extremely incredible.

These people are in public, and most of them are loyal to Master Owen, and these people feel especially unacceptable, because no matter whether Bai Xiaosheng is concocted "S-level" or "A-level", they can be regarded as winning Master Owen!

After all, Master Owen just said that if Bai Xiaosheng could concoct a "Grade A" wine within a limited time limit, even if he lost......

In this way, didn't Master Owen even lose without even having a chance to play?

Speaking of which, Master Owen may have set another "record" as a master craftsman, and no one can break it.

But this kind of "record" is a real shame.

The many people who supported Master Owen were naturally reluctant and looked at the others expectantly, after all, there were still four "judges".

"At least 'A-grade'!" Alan tasted and tasted, and when he put down his glass, he said.

The word "at least" makes people's breath froze.

Alan also tasted it many times before making a solemn judgment.

Ellen White's character is known to many people present.

This is an upright man who "I love my teacher, but I love the truth even more."

Many people who were unwilling to be defeated before the master took the stage suddenly felt a chill in their hearts.

Alan had just changed his tune and called Master Owen "teacher", and now he actually recognized the new wine made by the young man?

Wouldn't that be a real hammer?

More and more people are beginning to believe in this fact.

Master Owen over there, his face suddenly became a little gloomy, he didn't expect the newly accepted "student" to be so "faceless".

In fact, Bai Xiaosheng's wine, he took the first sip and tasted it, and he was also amazed, and even immediately decided that it touched the edge of "S-grade".

This point is consistent with Mo Xin's conclusion.

However, Master Owen was not happy at all, but rather heartbroken.

In this way, doesn't it mean that he didn't even have a chance to be on stage in the first game, so he lost?

This face is simply invisibly swollen.

Back?

So many people are looking at it, he is a master craftsman, so he still has to be ashamed!

Master Owen's gaze fell on Mirothy's face again.

At the moment, he only hopes that the remaining three juniors can come to a different conclusion.

In this way, he praised the young man two more sentences, affirmed two sentences, and criticized some, even if it was a draw in the first game, he could save some face.

Under the gaze of everyone, Mirose spoke, her attitude was firm, and her words were almost without hesitation.

"Although I am not a professional, my Huo family is a family in the wine industry, and my Lady has drunk countless good wines, and I can't be wrong about wine. This wine can be called 'A-grade'!"

Mirose is resolute and straightforward!

The guests were also amazed.

Master Owen's eyes were cold, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Milos is the daughter of the Hawke family, and now she is here, but she is a key person in the Hawke family, so her words and deeds represent the Hawke family.

Right now, the Hawke family has suffered a disaster, and she can't offend a master craftsman of the Wine Industry Association anymore!

Judging from Miloth's words and deeds in the past, she is also a woman who values her family, and if anyone dares to infringe on the interests of the Hawke family in public, she will do whatever it takes to defend it.

Why now, she is also resolutely standing on the platform of that young man!

Look at it this way......

That wine, maybe it's really "A-grade", it's not bad!

Many whispered so.

Five accounted for three, and Bai Xiaosheng had already won three votes.

Next, the opinions of Feng Moyu and Feng Moyan's brothers and sisters are actually irrelevant, and they are lacking in strength.

"This wine, I think it's okay, it's not bad. In front of everyone, Feng Moyan said vaguely, "Whether it can really reach the 'A level' still needs to be ......determined by authority."

As he spoke, Feng Moyan looked at Master Owen.

She was reluctant to agree with one hundred and twenty, but Mo Xin and Allen were both professional-level affirmed, and Miroth firmly supported them.

However, Feng Moyan was vague, and looked at Master Owen's actions, still very stupid.

Authoritative assessment, please?

There is nothing wrong with that.

But what does it mean to look at Master Owen and let Master Owen look at it himself?

Feng Mo didn't say a word, and his face was ugly.

Everyone looked at Master Owen.

Antonio looked at him as well, and tried to make himself appear calm.

Antonio also tried his best to suppress the urge to praise the wine.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Master Owen breathed slightly, suddenly laughed, stroked his palms and said, "What a hero out of a young man!

The master is not a master, and he actually uses oriental sayings.

Many people admired.

Especially the demeanor of the master, it is rare to be willing to recognize the achievements of the younger generations.

Of course, while "admitting defeat", he did not forget to boast, which was automatically ignored by many masters......

"Master Owen is so gracious!" Antonio was the first to applaud.

Many guests immediately applauded.

Bai Xiaosheng looked at it and smiled without saying a word.

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying behind him glanced at each other, with a clear meaning in their eyes, "This master, it's really shameless."

Mo Xin and Mirose didn't seem to be surprised.

When Feng Mo spoke and Feng Mo applauded, his expression was reluctant.

Only Allen, whose applause was a little sluggish, and his face was even a little sluggish.

In the past, the masters he saw were shrouded in aura, which made him look forward to and awe.

But today, for some reason, he suddenly felt a little lost.

Just like when he was young, the first time he heard that the goddess also had to shave her body hair, and the goddess's bedroom would be a mess......

The worldview of the stage has quietly shaken......

Under the applause, Master Owen pressed his palms to make everyone quiet, and then restrained his smile that had not smiled for a long time, his eyes were a little sharp, and he looked at Bai Xiaosheng, "Then let's have a second competition!"

"We're better than brewing!"

Brewing is one of the things to try, but naturally it is impossible to really make a wine from scratch.

It takes years and months, and it doesn't happen overnight.

At Ferro Winery, there are wines that are being remade. This second long table, lined up, is full of small oak barrels, the size of a toy, which were originally used to hold samples.

Master Owen walked over this time, turned his back to the wines, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation to Antonio, "Mr. Antonio, I would like to ask you to be a helper." ”

Facing Master Owen's invitation, Antonio smiled and complied, "Of course!"

Master Owen looked at Bai Xiaosheng, raised his chin, and said coldly and arrogantly, "Young man, next, as long as you learn, I will recognize you!"

This time, this Owen master has learned well.

I don't dare to admit defeat when I learn.

This recognition can also be regarded as a draw, and it can also be said that it is not as good as yourself. It depends on how you say it.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled and nodded, the implication was that it was all right.

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying were vague about Master Owen, and it was not surprising.

Anyway, they had already opened their eyes just now, and they knew what virtues this Owen master had.

Maybe he is really the pinnacle of his generation at the technical level, but this character is really not very good.

Master Owen looked at the guests around him, smiling, and his smile revealed the detachment that belonged to the master, "Then next, let me show you the basic skills of being a master craftsman!"

Seeing the master craftsman himself appearing, and saying so, all the guests' eyes shone and were full of anticipation.

Mo Xin and Allen were also solemn.

After all, they are obsessed with this profession, and there is really a more or less gap between them and the master craftsmen, and every moment is an opportunity to learn.

Mirose, Feng Moyu, and Feng Moyan are also novel to watch.

"This second competition is comparable to winemaking, but we can't actually make wine on site, so I asked Mr. Antonio to bring some samples of the twenty new wines from Château Ferro that are still in the brewing cycle, and put them there. As you can see, they're all sealed right now. In a moment, Monsieur Antonio will open a sample of ten of these wines, and I will judge the information about them by smell, and the length of time they have been brewed!"

Master Owen smiled and said what the competition was about.

"Just by smell?!"

"That's amazing!"

"This can be done, a miracle!"

The guests were in an uproar.

Even experts such as Antonio, Mo Xin, and Allen were a little surprised.

This is really a great skill, and it is definitely not a basic skill!

Rich knowledge, incomparably sharp sense of smell, absolutely strong self-confidence!

Everything is indispensable, and it is up to the highest level, so dare to do it!

Mo Xin, Allen, and Mirose were beside Bai Xiaosheng, and they couldn't help but look at him with a little worry.

Feng Mo Yu and Feng Mo Yan stood far away, and under the shock, they looked at Bai Xiaosheng with a sneer.

In their opinion, although Bai Xiaosheng's show-off skills are terrifying, it is his "old business" after all, after all, "Encounter" is also a concoction of wine, which comes from him.

Bai Xiaosheng can do what he did just now, which is quite scary, but it can also be explained by "familiarity" and "good memory".

Now, this is really a test of real brewing skills and knowledge.

They believed that Bai Xiaosheng would never be able to compare to Master Owen again!

If you take 10,000 steps back, even if you can really do it, isn't it still a draw!

Feng Mo whispered, Feng Mo Yan ignited hope again this time.

"Begin, Mr. Antonio. Master Owen turned his back to Antonio.

Antonio didn't talk nonsense either, his eyes swept away, he casually picked up a small oak barrel from the table and opened the lid.

Everyone immediately concentrated and held their breath as they looked at Master Owen.

Master Owen closed his eyes with a solemn expression, as if he had carefully discerned the subtle aroma of wine in the air.

"This summer, there was much less rain in the east than usual. ”

At the moment when the oak barrel opened, Bai Xiaosheng muttered softly.

On the side, everyone else looked at Master Owen intently, but Mo Xin glanced at Bai Xiaosheng in surprise, and didn't know why he said this.

After Bai Xiaosheng finished speaking, he quietly pressed Master Owen.

"This is Okuyama Red Eagle!" After that, there was silence for a full minute, and Master Owen finally spoke, and opened his eyes, his eyes were as bright as torches, and his voice was confident, "Selected from the unique red grapes of Okuyama in the Eastern Region, the winemaking period is twenty months, and now it is in the middle stage, it is speculated to be between nine and eleven months, because of the abundance of sugar, so the quality will be even better......"

Master Owen spoke eloquently.

The guests listened with straight eyes.

Just by a wisp of wine aroma, can you judge what wine, the origin of the main raw materials, and the brewing state it is in?

After Master Owen finished speaking, even Antonio held up the small oak barrel and showed it to everyone, looked at the card on the back of the barrel, and then raised his voice, "What Master Owen said is not wrong!"

Even Antonio was a little impressed.

Others were even more shocked.

Master craftsman, terrifying!

Many guests were in an uproar and excited.

Feng Moyu and Feng Moyan shouted even harder, and looked at Bai Xiaosheng with the same expression provocatively.

Can you do that?

Bai Xiaosheng's face was calm, and he applauded when it was time to applaud, with no surprise or worry on his face.

"Bai, don't feel pressure, after all, Master Owen is a master craftsman. Allen, who was next to him, couldn't help but softly comfort Bai Xiaosheng.

Right now, Allen didn't have any excitement in his heart, nor did he admire the master's five bodies as he imagined, but he cared about his friends.

The change that this mood implied was perhaps not even noticed by Alan himself.

"Yes, don't be pressured, even if you lose one game, it's okay, after all, it's too exaggerated for you to win two games in a row and crush a master craftsman. If I can't say it, I will be considered to have deliberately cheated a master craftsman, and when the news comes back, it is not good that someone will attack me because of this, saying that I don't care about the face of the wine association. Mo Xin lowered his voice and said to Bai Xiaosheng with a smile.

Her original intention was to persuade Bai Xiaosheng not to have a psychological burden, let alone to shock Master Owen's aura and disturb his mood all of a sudden, which would not be conducive to the next two competitions.

But Mo Xin's words made Bai Xiaosheng look at her.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Mo Xin was suddenly a little curious.

"You're right, I actually ignored it!" Bai Xiaosheng said seriously, "I won, I won't make trouble for you." ”

"You don't know if you lose. Mo Xin didn't smile at him angrily.

Having said that, Bai Xiaosheng still thinks that Mo Xin's words are very likely.

Crush a master craftsman, I'm afraid that even I will offend some people.

Although I am not afraid, but more things are better than less, unnecessary trouble, why bother yourself.

Just like a fly, you won't be afraid of it, but you will annoy it, especially if you may provoke a lot of flies.

"Then I have to lose a game!" Bai Xiaosheng muttered.

Mo Xin smiled angrily and glanced at him, even if she was optimistic, this guy was really confident, she really thought that she would win if she wanted to, and she was too immodest to look at the master in her eyes.

"There are very few sunny days in the western region this year, a lot of cloudy days, not enough sunshine, and a lot of rain. Bai Xiaosheng suddenly muttered.

He said another thoughtless sentence.

Mo Xin couldn't help but want to ask, why Bai Xiaosheng suddenly cared about the weather.

Over there, the voice of Master Owen was already sounding, "This is the Red Valley Dry Red, using grapes unique to the Western Region, the winemaking period is nineteen months, and it is currently in the early stage, but due to the lack of sugar, the cycle needs to be extended......

When Mo Xin heard these words, his mind suddenly seemed like a flint and lightning, and the light flashed by, and he suddenly woke up.

She suddenly looked at Bai Xiaosheng in disbelief.

Bai Xiaosheng's whisper about the regional weather is not talking about the origin of the main raw materials of the two wines, light and rain are the most critical factors affecting the grapes, and then many things can be deduced from what Master Owen said.

Could it be that he would have known it a long time ago?

Master Owen needed a full minute to distinguish, and Bai Xiaosheng only needed the moment the altar was opened to judge the key information.

How is this possible!

Mo Xin couldn't believe it.

In fact, Bai Xiaosheng's distance is even farther, and his back is not facing the direction of the wine altar, and the difficulty is far greater than that of Master Owen!

When Mo Xin thought of this, he suddenly looked at Bai Xiaosheng with a shocked face.

Next, Master Owen showed his excellent sense of smell and knowledge, and won a full house one after another.

But on Bai Xiaosheng's side, Bai Xiaosheng's every irrelevant sentence can make Mo Xin draw conclusions earlier than Master Owen!

When many people were cheering, they couldn't help but look at Bai Xiaosheng proudly, and the meaning of the words was clear-

"Young man, can you really compare with the master craftsman"!

Finally, more than ten minutes later, Master Owen completed all his judgments.

Antonio announced that nothing was missed.

Under the exclamation of the audience, Master Owen signaled everyone to be quiet, and looked at Bai Xiaosheng with a smile, "Young man, it's your turn!"

Everyone looked at Bai Xiaosheng, and so did Mo Xin.

Bai Xiaosheng glanced at Mo Xin, smiled faintly, and calmly faced Master Owen, facing everyone, with a gentle smile.

"Master Owen's magic skills, admire and admire, this, I can't come. Bai Xiaosheng's words were conclusive.

"I throw in the towel!"

Just a win or defeat, he Bai Xiaosheng didn't care about it.

But giving him less trouble for Mo Xin, this is the real benefit!
