The unique environment of the barrier reef has created its unique marine community. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

With the help of the crew, the crabs hiding at the bottom of the sea are nowhere to hide, so the dinner becomes even more abundant.

Handed over the caught sea crabs to the crew, Fu Zhengyi returned to the yacht and took off his wetsuit, he walked to the restaurant to share the latest harvest with her, saw that most of the tables and chairs in the restaurant had been removed, and there were dozens of glass wine glasses of different heights and sizes on the oak long table, as well as more than a dozen bottles of red wine with different labels, so he asked Ran Ying, who was holding a bottle of red wine and studying it carefully, what was this going to do?

"Bafra was going to teach the etiquette of wine tasting, and I was dragged over as a translator......"

"What about the two of them?"

"Rinse your mouth. Hey, aren't they all back?"

Following the direction of Ran Ying's finger, Fu Zhengyi saw Bafra and Svetlana coming over with them, so he dragged a chair and sat down.

"Wine is a special drink that tastes different when you put it in different types of glasses. In 1986 Georg Riedel, the 10th generation Austrian manufacturer of Liduo glasses, introduced a series of mechanical crystal glasses at an affordable price, known as the "Court Vinum". This range of varied styles confuses consumers, who are accustomed to a wine glass. However, George thought of a solution, and he began to hold tasting sessions to teach the glasses the difference. This worked so well that even novices noticed the significant differences between these different styles of glasses. So ten years later, George, who had made a great contribution to the wine industry, won the title of Decanter of the Year, and also gave wine tasting and appreciation a set of rules......"

With Bafra's introduction, the purpose of the various shapes and calibers of wine glasses on the oak table became clear.

The Chardonnay glass is designed to appreciate the delicate and elegant Chardonnay.

The Reslin glass is designed to concentrate the fruity aromas in the upper part of the glass, and the long handle keeps the wine cold, but it is required that the wine be kept cold.

Bordeaux red wine has a strong acidity and astringency, which is suitable for the tulip shape of the long body and the wall is not vertical, the curvature of the glass wall can moderately regulate the diffusion of the wine in the mouth, and the wider mouth can make the drinker better feel the gradual aroma of Bordeaux wine made from multiple wines......

It took Bafra forty minutes just to identify and introduce the wine glass, but she neither held the lesson plan nor read any materials, as if the knowledge had been imprinted in her bones, and she could tell a whole set of theories with her eyes closed, which was very surprising to everyone.

Seeing that the last kind of wine glass has also been introduced, Mishasha stretched her waist and said with a bitter face. "Oh my God, isn't it just a glass of wine?

Sketching out the wine glass introduced at the end of the notebook, Li Xueyao raised her head and said strangely. "Isn't that all this interesting?"

"Interesting? I don't think ......."

Mishasha grunted and rinsed her mouth again as Bafura asked, then turned her face and asked Fu Zhengyi how he felt?

Fu Zhengyi laughed. "Eat for the body, drink for the soul!"

Li Xueyao turned her face with a deep sense of surprise in her expression. "That's so philosophical, you can't sum it up, right?"

Fu Zhengyi shook his head and replied seriously. "Drunkard!"

Poof, everyone who could understand Chinese laughed.

Svetlana, who replaced Bafura, saw that everyone else was laughing except for Fu Zhengyi, so she asked curiously what was going on?

Ran Ying explained the reason, and Bafra and Svetlana couldn't help laughing.

But when Mishasha saw that their eyes were full of stars and their faces were adoring, she pursed her lips and whispered in Li Xueyao's ear. "You have to jail your man, or sooner or later you will be abducted by these golden cats......"

glaring at her, Li Xueyao continued to spread the notebook on the table.

Svetlana poured six glasses of wine from the decanter and asked Bafra to distribute before proceeding. "There are so many types of wines that a good taster can tell the type, brand, origin, and vintage of the wine through the four basic sequences of looking, smelling, and tasting, and can identify the ingredients used in the winemaking, the containers used, and even the subtle flaws in the production process......"

It took Svetlana almost an hour and a half to introduce the two brands with a total of six bottles, and at the end she explained that becoming a good taster is something that takes time and not a short period of training.

Mishasha asked. "And how do you know that?"

"During the etiquette course in Paris, my instructor thought I was the most sensitive to wine, so he asked me to take an intensive tasting course," Svetlana grimaced, before continuing. "During that time I had to taste 30 wines a day, and for three weeks in a row, I felt like I was almost going to become an alcoholic......"

Mishasha looked shocked. "Three weeks in a row? Thirty different wines every day? Oh my God, don't you have to drink until you vomit every day?"

Svetlana said helplessly. "So, in the end, I had to give up!"

Everyone laughed, and Svetlana said, picking up an unopened bottle of wine. "This is a very special bottle of wine, and it is the most valuable on this yacht, because of the time, it has not been opened today, and I will introduce it in detail tomorrow afternoon, but I may not be able to say the details of this wine, because I have not tasted this type of wine, but I remember that a bottle of Château Lysalus wine in 1784 was sold by Christie's in London in 1986 for more than 56,000 dollars, the highest price of a white wine at that time, and its former owner was Jefferson, the third president of the United States……”

Mishasha exclaimed. "Oh my God, so expensive?"

Li Xueyao also leaned over to look at the label, quite interested.

Fu Zhengyi beckoned, motioned for Svetlana to hand over the wine, and smiled when he finished reading the label. "It turned out to be noble rot wine, no wonder it can be sold for such an expensive ......"

Mishasha turned her face. "Huh, you know this wine?"

The first time I drank this kind of wine was at a seafood barbecue restaurant in Shanghai, and that time it was a guest invited by my roommate Geng Zhi Boy Chen Chengyang, so Fu Zhengyi nodded after recalling. "Well, this is a very special wine, it is not produced every year, and the climatic conditions are quite harsh, but the production of noble rot wine in Bordeaux in France is not high, this wine was born in Hungary, and the three top noble rot wines in the world are Tokaji in Hungary, Rheingau in Germany and Sauternes in Bordeaux in France......"

Mishasha exclaimed again. "Wow! How do you know so much?"

Seeing that Li Xueyao's eyes also had admiration, Fu Zhengyi turned the wine bottle in his hand in a different direction so that she could clearly see the complete label. "Na, this bottle is produced in the French Bordeaux Sauternes Château de Luxarius, this brand is known as France's 'wine king', there seems to be no agent in China, in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, this whole brand is translated as Di Xiang Manor, Dijin Winery, Château d'Yquemof Lvsa-Lvsi is one of Bordeaux's oldest estates and the only super-Cru sweet wine in Bordeaux's 1855 official Cru Cru rating. Among the five major wineries, including Mouton, this winery is owned by the most prestigious and legendary family in the French wine industry, which is not only one of the oldest aristocratic families in Europe, but also the owner of the world's most precious rotten castle, Château Lysalus, for hundreds of years, which can be called extremely long......"

With the memory of the origin of this bottle of wine and the history of its producer, Li Xueyao's surprised and admiring gaze also made Fu Zhengyi full of pride.

The waiter came in to tidy up the restaurant, Svetlana sent the most valuable noble rot on board to the cellar, Fu Zhengyi smoked a cigarette on the foredeck, but took out his mobile phone and dialed Guo Jianmin of the London company to ask about the purchase of the winery he had been paying close attention to.

Just arrived at the company and sat down, Guo Jianmin said helplessly. "BOSS, you can't look down on small wineries, large wineries can't be bought with money now, so the progress is very slow......"

The Château di Coma has been bought, and the low-level winery, Fu Zhengyi is really not very interested, and he is about to end the call after explaining that he will continue to follow and pay attention, but Guo Jianmin went on to say that he heard that the heirs of the Château de Lysalus are looking for a suitable buyer, and he has arranged for someone to contact him, but the Lysalus family is the most prestigious legendary aristocratic family and business group in France, and its family is involved in wine, cosmetics, elevator and furniture manufacturing. Industries such as clothing, jewelry, and food are unlikely to have full control even if they receive a portion of the shares from their heirs.

"BOSS, the transfer of Château di Comar has made the French people quite dissatisfied, and as the first brand of French wine culture, the status of Château Lysalus is unshakable, even if you have money, I think in the end the French government will forcibly intervene to prevent non-national buyers from becoming its owners......"

"As long as somebody is willing to sell, then buy it!" Even if you end up under pressure from some quarters, the French government won't force the buyer to go out, right?"

"Yes, even if the French government wants to appease and take care of the feelings of the French people and refuse to approve the transfer of this winery, it will certainly not confiscate the funds invested by foreign buyers by strong means, but if it really goes to ...... point."

Fu said arrogantly. "What's so terrible about this kind of lawsuit? Do it with all your might!"

Guo Jianmin hung up the phone with a wry smile, thinking that he was busy now......
