Of course, it was not only wine insiders who came to the scene, but also friends who had a relationship with Tong Guò Shi Lei to help the individual scene, as well as some local leaders. For example, Santa Barbara's sheriff Alex (book friend Aliks cameo), that is, the one who previously issued Shi Lei a concealed gun license.

There are also many well-known and not-so-famous celebrities who also came to the scene. After all, the wine conference is relatively high-end venues, and many celebrities also hope to find their own opportunities in it, or simply like wine.

These people came through the introduction of Lincoln's girlfriend Elizabeth, and some simply came to the scene by themselves, including a few guys who can go all over the world by brushing their faces, such as Xiaobei, the national husband who has had several relationships with Shi Lei, and the male god Stallone with facial paralysis.

Under the watchful attention of the audience, the most important part of the press conference began first, that is, by Robert ? Parker's own blind tasting.

This can be said to be the moment that will determine the fate of many new wines in the future, and how well they will sell and what the price will be is a matter for Parker, so everyone on the scene is basically waiting with bated breath.

Parker, who was not very good-looking and a little overweight, slowly walked to the dozens of new red wines lined up with the quiet music of the scene. All the red wine is poured into a special tasting glass after it is decanted, and placed on the table according to the time it needs to be decanted.

After tasting each wine, Parker would jot down his feelings and rinse his mouth a few times with the help of the staff before moving on to the next wine. It seems like a lot of long red wines, and under the mouth of a professional taster like Parker, they have all gone through it all over again.

It will take a while for Parker to take stock of his feelings and finish grading the wines. After that, the scores will be published according to the name of each winery. Of course, there will be someone to supervise the whole process, which is also how Parker uses to show his fairness and impartiality.

Of course, I won't just wait for this time in between, and there are already live bands that start their own performances. There are also actresses who go up to show their singing voices. Bring the atmosphere of the scene. And the heads of the wineries in the audience were already beginning to have a verbal confrontation at this time.

Of course, everyone is familiar with each other's level and the level of wine produced. They basically have a spectrum in their hearts. In this secret contest, it is generally those who are of similar level and can be said to be more direct opponents.

For example, those seemingly enthusiastic winery managers who found Xu Xiaoxiao would definitely not come to McRae to get sè, and it was not a level of competition at all.

In this seemingly friendly atmosphere, Parker's grading work was over, and his assistant immediately posted the ratings to his website. And then the announcement to the scene.

Shi Lei doesn't have a particularly clear understanding of the quality of red wine. He always came only by his own feelings, and he bought more when he thought it was delicious. It's as simple as that, and nothing else is taken into account.

Of course, in order not to be looked down upon, Shi Lei must still get two bottles of top-notch red wine like Romanée Conti, which ordinary rich people only hear but have not tasted, to decorate the façade. In the ultra-high standard wine cellar in the main room, there are still a few bottles of such luxury-grade red wine. But Shi Lei usually drinks the ones he likes.

But for this rating, Shi Lei must be concerned, who let Shi Lei have a stake in the winery. And as the transformation of McRae and Xu Xiaoxiao continues, Shi Lei's investment is increasing, and of course he has more and more shares.

Coupled with the part of the shares obtained from McRae after buying Stone Ranch, in fact, Shi Lei now holds a lot of shares in the winery.

And this rating can be said to be directly related to his money. He, who was not interested in high-scoring wine, had to pay attention to this rating.

With the gradual release of Parker's scores, the major winery owners on the scene can be said to have mixed feelings. Of course, the high ratings are busy cheering. Of course, the only ones with low ratings are sighs.

Although none of the new wines produced this year were good vintages, several wines received top wines with a score of 95 or more. After all, the brewing history here in the Central Valley is relatively long, and there are several well-known brands and wineries, and their products will definitely not be too bad.

This rating can be said to be a victory for Shi Lei and the winery. The winery, which has been newly named Liuli (book friend cameo), has gained a lot in this Parker tasting event.

As the main brand of the glazed winery, the glazed wine produced by McRae's part of the vineyard received a high score of 98 points in this tasting activity. Parker regrets that if it weren't for the fact that the grapes were not of the highest quality, if not in time for the good vintage. There is every hope that this batch of glazed wines will reach a perfect score of 100.

However, this glass red wine is also the highest score among the red wines in the audience. Curry's winery, which came in second place, only received a score of 96, which is just enough to reach the level of top wines according to Parker's rating system. Several other wineries also have top ratings at this level. It can be said that there are some gaps with glass wine.

As the sub-card of Liuli Winery, the Wuyun (book friend "Wuyun 1" cameo) wine is the red wine produced in the part of the vineyard under Xu Xiaoxiao's hand that won by quantity. After the joint transformation of McKeree and Xu Xiaoxiao, the Wuyun wine produced this time also achieved very good results, with a score of 95 points, which can be called the top level of excellent wines.

Originally, Wuyun Wine's positioning was to strive to be excellent, and now it has undoubtedly become the best in its class, and even catches up with the top brands of Curry and other brands.

This made Xu Xiaoxiao, who had been paying attention nervously, almost jump up with joy, although he couldn't help it, but he still hugged his wife An Yumeng, who came to help him, to celebrate. Curry next to him also smiled and congratulated Xu Xiaoxiao.

This victory is of great significance to the three collaborators of Liuli Winery, not only because of the predictable increase in sales and market prices, but also because it proves the transformation skills of McRae and Xu Xiaoxiao. and their cooperation has been successful.

This means that they can continue their transformation in the future, because this result has proved that their transformation is in the right direction. So Shi Lei stepped forward and celebrated with the two partners.

Xu Xiaoxiao's smile hung on his face, and he never stopped. The joy of this one can be clearly felt by all. Even McRae, who usually doesn't smile, rarely showed a smiling face at this time. also took the rare initiative to say a few more words, which shows his excitement.

The other winery managers also stepped forward and sincerely sent their blessings to McRae. McRae was arguably a pioneer of pioneering spirits, and the managers of these wineries were well aware of the ups and downs that McRae had been through.

In order to improve his own grapes, he basically took all his net worth, if it weren't for Shi Lei taking over the stone ranch at a more fair price, leaving the vineyard to McRee, and investing some cash in McRee's renovation business. McRae may have become a penniless bankruptcy, and the chance of bankruptcy was his only fate at that time, how could he have his current glory moment.

Of course, McRae himself understands this situation, so his gratitude to Shi Lei is also from the heart, which also contributed to his follow-up cooperation plan with Xu Xiaoxiao and Shi Lei.

And a person like McRae, who devotes himself to the cause he loves, is indeed worthy of respect. Especially when he went through all kinds of hardships, but finally really achieved the success he wanted, the people around him could only send sincere admiration and blessings.

The three partners didn't celebrate together for long, and many sellers who saw the glass winery table had already found McRae and Xu Xiaoxiao. According to their respective needs, we began to negotiate cooperation with them, of course, the main thing is how to divide their respective shares.

Of course, Zhao Wuxin and Political Commissar Yu, who were invited by Shi Lei, were not exempt from vulgarity. Both of them first found Shi Lei's side, hoping to use Shi Lei's influence to distribute a sufficient share.

For this aspect, of course, Shi Lei is happy to help. It is enough to introduce the two to their two partners, and the two of them have the final say on how to divide the share. It just so happened that they were in charge of their own two brands, Liuli and Wuyun, and they were not afraid to interfere with each other.

Shi Lei leisurely ran to Alexander and a few of them came to help the station friends chat, this will be smiling and bargaining with Lincoln, a few of them also want to share some glass real red wine back to drink, but the production is very limited.

"Hello Shi Lei, I'm Tang Cheng, it's a pleasure to meet you." Shi Lei and they were chatting, and there was a sentence in Chinese next to them. Shi Lei hurriedly looked over. See which of your compatriots is greeting you.

"I'm here...... It's ......" Shi Lei looked at the other party curiously, and his voice became stammered. Shi Lei is a little confused, he is not so scary.

"I'll tell you." A little girl's slightly playful voice came from the side. "My brother is an ice wine winery manager from Ontario, Canada. I'm here to talk to you about cooperation.

In addition, he is not stammering, but he is nervous when he sees beautiful women, because he has a strict zhòng phobia. Hee-hee. The little girl said with a grin. Tang Cheng next to him glared at the little girl angrily.

"Hmph, what's the use of you murdering me, I'll tell my dad when I turn around, you stuttered again when you saw a beautiful woman." The little girl said indifferently.

"You must be Sister Laura, you are the most beautiful in the audience, I will not admit it. My name is Tang Xin, I've seen you from many fashion magazines.

Let's go over there and talk, my brother can't even speak when he sees you. ”

The little girl named Tang Xin is quite good at talking, and she immediately won Laura's favor, but by the way, she couldn't help but complain about her brother.

Tang Cheng glared at Tang Xin again, Tang Xin just glanced at his brother indifferently, and pulled Laura aside to speak. (Thanks to ¥ Liuli¥ for providing two cameo roles) (To be continued) R655
