Chapter 573: The Winery is in hand
Mr. Fang, is this the benefit of pure handmade brewing?"
Davy's face flushed.
According to Fang Luo, Madame Mary was only able to make second-quality red wine from inferior grapes, and he had a lot of high-quality grapes that had been improved in his hands, but he could only make third-grade regional table wines, which was really a bit unreasonable, even if Madame Marie was his most admired idol, it could not make him ashamed a little.
"Benefits?"
Fang Luo smiled and shook his head: "Pure handmade wine has high requirements for winemakers. From material selection, destemming, granulation, juice fermentation and the first precipitation and sulfur addition, the whole process must be attentive. There should be no negligence, especially in the granulation process. It's a great test for the winemaker, and it's a make-or-break move. If I'm not mistaken, even for giant wineries like Lafite and Mouton, most of their three major environments of destemming, granulation and juicing are done by machines, and the winemaker's experience is used in the selection and fermentation process, but this is the wine. That is, the first-class table wine of the assembly line, not the pure hand-brewed red wine of Mouton in four or five years and Lafite in eight or two years......"
With the insight of the contemporary Dionysian, although Fang Luo had never been to these two major wineries, he guessed eight or nine.
The reason why Mouton and Lafite in 45 years and Lafite in 82 years are famous is because in those two years the sun and rain in the Bordeaux region reached a perfect level, and the grapes were also rare and perfect, in this context, only large wineries like Mouton and Lafite can hire a large number of experienced winemakers to make a large number of red wines by hand, and then hide them in the cellar, and then change the barrel every three years, and maintain it for a long time without selling, so people have a reason why this wine is expensive.
In addition to the early brewing cost, just after decades of maintenance, the maintenance cost is enough to build a few small wineries.
However, since it is purely handmade, there will be a difference between superior and inferior, after all, not every winemaker is a top master in the industry, and the decades-long cellaring process can weaken the difference, but it cannot be completely eliminated, so anyone who really understands wine knows that even if it is four or five years of Mouton. In fact, there are also high and low, and the price at the auction house is often several times different, which is why.
"Madame Marie is indeed a genius, and although we have been able to drink grapes that have not even reached the middle and upper quality after ten years, she has relied on her unparalleled talent to make a second class red wine, which is really admirable. However, for the average winemaker, if she does not have such a talent, it is likely that the quality of the wine will be reduced by hand-brewing, and the machine is better than stability although it is not talented, isn't it?
Looking at the bright red wine in the wine glass, Fang Luo sighed leisurely: "Mr. Sean, let me make a bold guess, not long after brewing this wine, Lady Mary died in a car accident, right?"
"Fang, how do you know?"
Many people knew the time of Madame Mary's death, but no one knew that this was the last batch of wine she brewed during her lifetime, listening to Fang Luo's speculation, old Sean trembled all over his body, and looked at Fang Luo incredulously.
"Wine, this glass of wine told me, tasting red wine, in fact, it is not the taste of the wine itself, but communicating with the winemaker and feeling his amazing ......" Fang Luo said slowly: "Your lady should be a beautiful, kind, generous and lovely woman, although she was born in a commoner, she is more educated than the nobles, although she was born in the countryside, she has a far-sighted vision, she is a genius ......"
Cheng Dong was stunned, Fang Luo's admiration is no longer a surging river, it is a whole Pacific Ocean, the second boss is too powerful, this public relations level is really first-class, you see old Sean moved, this is looking forward to the morning and evening, looking forward to the relatives coming to the mountains.
Old Sean's eyes have long been blurred, and Fang Luo's eyes have long changed, this child is so cute!
Everyone on the winery knows that when old Sean uses the word "child" to describe a young man, he is completely ruined, because he has already regarded this person as a relative, flesh and blood, and this old widower, who has no children and no daughters under his knees, will never be stingy with "children".
"From this wine, I can feel the amazing brilliance of your lady, and I can also feel that she was at her peak at that time, but it is a pity that the quality of the grapes that year is not good, otherwise this should be a treasure that surpasses the top red wine!"
Fang Luo is really not a sycophant, a winery worth 100,000 euros is not in his eyes, how can he pat the horse for the sake of profit?
He just wondered if she had reached the top of the world a few years earlier, if she hadn't been in that car accident.
Château Marie can be ranked among the top châteaux, if not on the same level as the big wineries of Lafite and Mouton, and Marie's name may even be recorded in the history of French wine as a generation of masters praised by everyone......
Everything is fate, not at all, he has always been jealous of talents, no matter which country he goes to, how can Fang Luo not sigh and not remember this lady?
"Fang, my child ......" Old Sean cried, regardless of whether he was familiar with others or not, he threw away the rabbit leg in his hand, opened his pair of greasy big hands and hugged Fang Luo into his arms, just like seeing an illegitimate child who had been lost for many years.
With Fang Luo's speed reaction, it was not impossible to avoid the old man's pair of oily hands, but he didn't dodge, but let old Sean hug him into his arms;
No matter what the reason, old Sean is quite pitiful, for many years he has only pinned his feelings on Octavian, the little beagle, and now after listening to his own words, it is estimated that he has shifted the target of his affection, and if he dodges, this old man may not be so sad.
Phew, how do you compare yourself to a dog, what do you say?
Fang Luo smiled bitterly, it was undeniable that he was also moved in the arms of the extremely excited old Sean, otherwise his thoughts would not be so confused.
"Fang, my child!"
Old Sean seemed to be very uneasy, and after reluctantly letting go of Fang Luo, he did not forget to involve the relationship between the two parties to the next generation, and at the same time naturally avoided the suspicion of backing the mountain: "I waited for a whole ten years, originally I just wanted to find a genius who really knows how to make wine, just like Mary, to restore the glory of Mary Winery, but I didn't expect me to wait for you, you not only understand wine, but also understand Mary...... Oh, I knew you must be a little angel sent by Mary to help me......"
The dining room was suddenly quiet and could be heard of a needle dropping, and even Octavian, who was playing happily, stopped, and looked at old Sean in amazement, Octavian was not a simple dog, and his IQ was very high.
David looked at Zhou Yi with a more enthusiastic gaze, having lived with old Sean for so many years, of course he knew and understood Old Sean's character, it seemed that this young man in China ......
No, the genius winemaker from China is about to take over Mary's Manor, and this is a great opportunity for him, a diligent enough winemaker who has been denied entry.
David has no doubts about Fang Luo's level, even Joseph, the top winemaker of Champ Mouton and El, and El, Château Lafite, can't say such insightful words, Chagery Marie, there is hope!
"Zhou, my child, if you want, I want to give you this winery, are you willing to accept it?"
After a few heavy breaths, old Sean finally made a decision, Zhou Jingjing's eyes widened when she heard it, and the queen felt that the gap between herself and her brother was too big.
