Xiao Feng's birthday is on December 13th, but he has never been too birthday, so he didn't make any special preparations for himself on this day, and even went to the winery after sending Nini to kindergarten in the morning.

The wines made a month ago had already begun to be produced, and Xiao Feng, the owner of the winery, naturally wanted to be there to witness the birth of the first barrel of wine.

Located in a huge, flat valley between the Mirror Lake Ranch and the Xiao Family Farm, there are rivers formed by meltwater from the snow-capped mountains and springs that provide abundant water for the vineyards.

What satisfies Xiao Feng the most is that the main body of the hills on both sides of the valley is made of marble, so it is the most suitable for building a wine cellar. After more than two years of intense construction, the bellicity on either side of the estate has been excavated to create a vast cellar system.

Of the 1 million bottles of Xiao wine produced last year, 300,000 of which were put on the market, the rest are stored in cellars deep into the mountainside, where most of the wines produced by the winery will be fermented, aged and cellared.

With Xiao Feng's goal, this huge wine cellar will store no less than 10 million bottles of 'Xiao's wine' and various Xiao family aged wines in the future, and this place will become a gathering point for the Xiao family's huge wealth in the future.

In this world, whether it is real estate, factories, or gold, there may be price fluctuations or even depreciation, but fine wine and antiques will not depreciate lightly.

For example, the wholesale price of a new 750ml bottle is only 998 euros, but after a year of aging in the cellar, its price rises to 1,298 euros, which is much higher than the price increase and currency depreciation, and in a sense, it is an increase in value.

In the future, after more than ten or twenty years of aging, the value of 'Xiao's wine' may be the same as liquid gold, which is the best way to preserve its value.

Xiao Feng has already discussed with the old lady that in the future, a modern museum will be built in the 'Ginkgo New District', which will systematically and scientifically preserve and exhibit the porcelain, ancient books, and various antiques, gold, silver and jewelry collected by the Xiao family over the years, and gradually purchase more antiques to enrich the museum.

Now that the Xiao family's assets are extremely inflated, the Xiao family is unwilling to invest their assets in the real estate industry, and the expansion of the 'Jinghu Group' must be carried out step by step, Xiao Feng naturally does not want to see the bank's deposits continue to depreciate.

Therefore, investing assets in the increasingly hot art market and storing more 'Xiao's wines' has become the key direction of Xiao Feng's asset transfer in the next stage.

In the future, the wine cellar and museum will become an important attraction for tourists in the 'Mirror Lake Scenic Area', which can be described as killing two birds with one stone!

…………

When Xiao Feng rode his mountain bike to the 'Xiao's Winery', it was the time of the sunset, and the brilliant sunlight poured on the top of the snow-capped mountains not far away, exuding a charming golden light, and even the vineyards with a little bleakness became much more beautiful.

After all the grapes have been harvested, the winery staff has carefully cut each vine to reduce foliar volatilization and ensure that the vines can survive the cold winter in Ginkgo Village.

In addition, the employees buried the fermented farmyard manure deep in the vineyard and covered the roots of each vine with straw straw to keep it warm.

Field management and fertilization throughout the winter will play a crucial role in the yield and quality of the vineyard in the coming year, although Xiao Feng has a big killer such as the 'Space Spirit Spring', and many procedures still have to follow the general laws of agricultural science.

In fact, not only the vineyards of 'Xiao's Winery', but also the entire 'Jinghu Ranch' and 'Xiaojia Farm' can be seen everywhere This kind of scientific and reasonable management measures can be seen everywhere, which is also the basis for the outside world to see the rise of Jinghu cuisine.

Cycling through the vineyard paths, with the crisp chirping of foraging birds and the occasional rabbit or two popping out of the grass, the whole vineyard is a little lonely, but it is not lifeless.

When I came to the wine cellar, many high-level officials of the Xiao family came, even Mrs. Xiao, General Xu, and Mrs. Xiao also came, and the wine cellar was lively.

"Grandpa, why are you here on such a cold day?" Xiao Feng asked after greeting a few old people.

Today, the temperature in Ginkgo Village dropped to about 4 degrees Celsius, and although there was no snow, the cold mountain breeze still made people feel very low.

"What's the good of staying at home all day?" Old General Xu glared at him and said: "This year's new wine is out, although we old men don't ask about the world, we still want to know about it!"

For Xiao Feng's grandson-in-law, General Xu is a hundred satisfied, not only did he not use his power to make a profit, but also invested a lot of effort in charity, he is a good boy.

Of course, it would have been better if he hadn't followed in the footsteps of a few old ladies and let himself drink more!

General Xu was born with mud legs, fought in the south and north for decades, and was a good drinker when he was young, but since he entered the center and grew older, he was deprived of this hobby by the old lady and the health doctor.

Especially in recent years, smoking, alcohol, and all kinds of spicy and irritating foods have basically disappeared from the old general's life, and every meal he has to make in strict accordance with the guidance of the health doctor and even the medical committee.

This deprived the old general's life of a lot of fun.

After coming to Ginkgo Village, the old general's body was restored, and although he was 94 years old, the results of the examination were not much different from those of an eighty-year-old man, or even better.

Therefore, the old general was specially allowed to drink half a glass of wine every night, but the old general was somewhat unsatisfied.

No, today's new wine is brewed, and the old general comes over to join in the fun, isn't it just to get over the addiction to alcohol.

"Grandpa, the new wine is not very good, today I will make an exception for you to drink a glass of the old wine of the previous year!" Seeing the look of anticipation on the faces of the old general and the two grandfathers, where did Xiao Feng not know the thoughts of the three grandfathers?

Considering the mild nature of 'Xiao's wine', Xiao Feng can occasionally open his mouth for a few old ladies to enjoy.

"Words count!" the old general and the old lady spoke almost in unison, their eyes shining!

They knew very well that Xiao Feng's words in front of the old lady carried more weight than them, as long as Xiao Feng agreed, they could enjoy it today.

"Grandpa, don't be cute!" Looking at a few eighty or ninety-year-old ladies like children, Xiao Feng could only shake his head and sigh.

After chatting with a few old men for a while, Xiao Feng didn't care about them, and walked into the wine cellar alone, as if the lion king was inspecting his territory!

Compared with the Xiao family's previous cellar caves, the cellar caves here are much more modern, after all, the construction conditions between the two are not the same.

As Xiao Feng's footsteps sounded, the voice-activated lights and induction fans were activated in turn, and the wine cellar deep into the mountainside did not give people a feeling of being stuffy, but added a bit of dreamy color.

The four-metre-wide avenue paved with stone slabs and cement can accommodate large electric forklifts, and the huge oak barrels with a capacity of up to 500 litres can only be moved by a gò forklift.

On both sides of the avenue, the reinforced concrete shelves are lined up with large oak barrels, where the aged 'Xiao wines' are stored and then filled with a fully automatic Guò bottling system. Each cask is labelled with a label indicating when the cask was made, where the grapes were harvested and who handled it.

Every piece of information is clearly visible, which is also one of the links of the quality control system of 'Xiao's Winery'.

At present, since the 'Château Xiao' has only just started operation, and only 4,000 oak barrels have been stored in the past three years, the whole cellar still looks empty.

Xiao Feng is already looking forward to how spectacular it will be when tens of millions of bottles of wine fill the entire wine cellar.

After walking around the wine cellar, Xiao Feng was very satisfied with this super project that cost hundreds of millions of dollars and nearly 1,000 workers worked hard for two years, and this place will become an important base for the Xiao family's wealth.

Back in the work area near the entrance of the wine cellar, Xiao Feng personally unscrewed the faucet of a fermentation barrel and took over the first glass of new wine this year.

The blood-like red wine stained the walls of the goblet with layers of redness, and a faint aroma gradually wafted in the air, and those who are familiar with 'Xiao's wine' know that it is this special aroma!

After Xiao Feng finished sobering up, he took a sip gently, let the wine stay in his mouth, and savored the charm.

The strong but not choking aroma of the wine is in place, and the faint mineral taste is the unique aroma of 'Xiao's wine', which comes from the spring water of Biluo Snow Mountain, and a remote special fragrance needs to be carefully tasted to feel, which is the taste of 'Space Spirit Spring'; .......

The liquor is still a little astringent, this is because it has not been aged yet, and in the future, it will have more mellow oak barrels, and the taste of 'Space Spring' will be more obvious!

"Not bad!" Xiao Feng nodded to everyone, acknowledging the quality of this batch of wine!

The rest of the people present were also conquered by the fine wine, although its quality is not enough to compare with the aged 'Xiao wine', but it already has a third of the charm. Next, the winery staff simply strain the wine from the fermentation vats and place it in oak barrels.

The old men who got Xiao Feng's special approval couldn't help but taste the newly brewed wine, drink another glass of aging, and go home satisfied!

Xiao Feng took a lot of photos in the wine cellar and put them on his neck, which immediately made many fans stunned.

This is also the first time that the location of the expensive 'Xiao Wine' cellar has been exposed to the public, and the huge matrix of oak barrels that cannot be seen at a glance will always bring a huge impact to people.

According to the standard that each oak barrel can fill 600 bottles of 'Xiao wine', the value of these barrels is somewhat amazing, 600,000 euros, basically can buy most of the luxury cars on the market!

No matter who it is, in the face of such a formation, there can only be all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred!R1152
