327.Circa1876 Winery

Emperor Wu met the small owner of Tianrui Winery, who was the cousin of the big boss.

Each member of the Tianrui family owns some shares in the winery, and there are more than 20 people alive, so the shareholding is relatively dispersed, a tradition that has been passed down for 150 years, in order to bring future generations together.

The small boss is called Tony Tianrui, and he owns 8.7% of the shares, which is the second most.

Tony told Emperor Wu that he had come to the right place to taste the most delicious wine in the entire Hunter Valley, but if he wanted to buy a winery, he might have come to the wrong place.

Emperor Wu listened to the narrator's talk about the development history of Tianrui, and he had already dispelled the idea of acquiring the oldest winery.

He wanted to learn more about the Hunter Valley through Tony, and Tony was willing to serve as his guide.

Tony is a kind-hearted man, and he hopes to see more young people like Emperor Wu enter the Hunter Valley and develop the fascinating wine business here.

"There are hundreds of wineries out there, and it's easy to find one that you want to transfer, such as Circa 1876, which is not far from me. Tony, who was sitting opposite Emperor Wu, said.

"Circa1876? "Emperor Wu has a very high impression of this winery, and the name alone is great.

Circa means approximate in English, and the name of the winery translates to "around 1876", which is not very literary and pretty.

"Circa isn't strictly a one-size-fits-all winery, they want to give their guests a farm-to-table experience of healthy eating, but their wines are just as good. Tony said again.

He stood up and pointed to a plantation in the distance and said, "See where it is? That heaven and earth belong to Circa, and their vegetables are of the highest quality in the Hunter Valley." ”

"In other words, this winery is mainly a restaurant?" said the old lady, who had not spoken, and she went back to her room to change into professional clothes, very similar to that.

Tony nodded, "Yes ma'am, their meals are top-notch, and I go to them a lot." ”

"In that case, then why can't they continue to operate? What problems have they encountered?" Emperor Wu said the doubts in his heart.

In his opinion, a winery in the Hunter Valley can either produce first-class wines or cook a good meal, and both can be satisfied with the same thing.

It stands to reason that circa1876 has no reason to transfer.

Tony clapped, "I knew you would ask that, in fact, every merchant who wants to buy them will ask me." ”

Circa1876 was transferred because the owner of the winery was a less successful businessman whose main business was the media, and he originally owned a daily newspaper in the top 10 in the country in terms of daily circulation in Siney and Melbourne.

In recent years, the media company has been on the verge of bankruptcy, so he has to reluctantly part with the sale of the winery in the Hunter Valley.

It is worth mentioning that the media mogul is not the founder of the winery, before him, circa1876 had ten owners, but all of them failed to survive.

"In that case, we're twelfth. Emperor Wu smiled at the elder sister and Kaibi.

"You are the Twelve Knights of the Round Table. Kebi said.

Bye Tony, Emperor Wu plans to go to Circa for himself and talk to the media tycoon, maybe he can find some new business opportunities.

Although the wines of the Hunter Valley are famous throughout the world, they are not expensive and even much cheaper than in the country.

Buying a good wine in a winery is more than 100 yuan, and the price is very close to the people, but domestic tourists can only take two from the customs, otherwise I am afraid that everyone can carry a few boxes back and distribute them to relatives and friends, which is very face-saving.

Circa 1876 is located in a lush greenery, which is in line with its philosophy of healthy eating.

The winery is a bit like a South Australian ranch, with a small pasture in front of a large house, but it also has a flower field and a farmland.

It's a sunny day, and a lawn mower is walking on the lawn with a lawn mower.

A few clean big white dogs and a few children are playing around, there are many tourists, some are taking pictures, and most of them are enjoying food in the green restaurant of the winery.

If you want to visit the owner, you should make an appointment, and besides, the owner of this place is a busy media tycoon, and this is only a small part of his property, so he should not stay here every day to bask in the sun.

"At three o'clock in the afternoon, what kind of food are these people eating, no wonder they are as fat as balls. Emperor Wu complained.

"You don't allow people to have afternoon tea yet. The old lady woke up the dreamer with a sentence.

Afternoon tea is a tradition of hardworking and courageous Britons, and Australia, as a Commonwealth country, has inherited this very well.

Drink a cup of tea with sugar and milk, eat a few delicate and delicious snacks, and grab a newspaper for a wonderful afternoon.

The dining room on the west side of the big house is a dedicated afternoon tea restaurant, which is decorated in wood tones and is very spacious, with sofas and wooden tables and chairs to choose from.

The location of the afternoon tea restaurant is very scientific, because in the afternoon, the sun turns to the west, and the soft daylight can shine in through the glass window from any angle, making it warm and tasteful.

For this alone, Emperor Wu couldn't wait to take over this historic winery.

Entering the restaurant, Emperor Wu found that it was the same as he had imagined. A group of Britons read the newspaper and drank tea inside, but no one spoke loudly, and the occasional few people chatted secretly and quietly.

The children who can't sit still are crazy outside, big white dogs, small sheep, miniature horses and a few alpacas, who play the role of receptionists.

"Hello, Madam and Sir, what would you like to have on this cozy afternoon?"

Emperor Wu raised his head, and it was a beautiful young girl who was wearing a linen skirt and blouse, and she smiled sweetly.

"Thank you. After taking the menu, Emperor Wu handed it directly to the old lady and Kaibi, and when he came, he had already thought of a drink, black tea.

The British have a history of 300 years of Indian black tea, and it can be said that there is no country with a British professional level of black tea tasting.

Emperor Wu wants to taste the taste of black tea here.

The tea ordered by the three people was different, in order to exchange tasting.

Emperor Wu asked for a small pot of Earl Grey tea, which is the most classic drink of English afternoon tea, with bergamot oil added to it, so there is a special refreshing feeling after drinking, and this tea still has some roots in China.

The Ceylon tea that the elder sister wanted, this is a black tea produced in Sri Lanka, and the raw material used in the famous "silk stockings milk tea" is Ceylon tea. It's friendly to women's beauty.

Next is Kaibi, she is more powerful, ordering Assam milk tea.

Emperor Wu almost burst out laughing when he heard it, this name is too familiar, and I often see the positions they promote in China, as well as various free tasting activities.

"My dear, if you want to drink, I'll ask someone to bring you a few boxes from China. Emperor Wu snorted.

Kaibi didn't react, Australian supermarkets do not have this product unified in Taiwan.

Jokes are jokes, this Assam milk tea is not Assam milk tea. Wu Di believed the description on the menu, using tea from northeastern India.
