Not only did this old man know that the Raffi estate belonged to the Rothschild family, which was once known as Shijie's Sixth Empire, but he also knew it. Despite its fame, Lafite is not without its rival wines. Knowing that there are some wineries whose vintages are indeed better than Lafite.

For example. Broome knows that among the thousands of wineries in the Bordeaux region. There are a few wineries that produce better red wines than Lafite.

The reason why these wineries are not included in the list of the six major châteaux in Bordeaux. It's not because the red wines they produce are of inferior taste, but it's really as the fat man said before, because these are small wineries, because of the technology, because of the strict requirements for grape regions, varieties, seasons, quality, sugar content, etc., and the output is very small. Its output is only circulated among some of Shijie's top celebrities.

That's why it's not famous. Far less than the first of the six Châteaux of Lafite, so domineering!

Therefore, the old man Bloom has no objection to the first half of Beigong Shuoyue's sentence, Lafei is not shijie first, and is not inferior to Rafite, or even better.

However, in the second half of the North Palace, the wine in this jar is far better than that of 84-year-old Lafite, and Bloom refuses to believe it.

This jar is unopened, apparently the original brew. Judging from the wine-making tools, judging from the shape of this pottery jar, this jar wine is definitely madeinchina.

If the liquor in the jar were liquor, perhaps as the fat man said, it would be comparable to Lafite, but liquor would not go well with the French cuisine at their Burgundy restaurant.

If the wine in the jar is a fruit wine that goes well with French cuisine, then Old Man Bloom will never believe that the Chinese fruit wine can be compared with the red wine of Gallic Bordeaux. Not to mention the 84 Aged Lafite?

Therefore, he was very unconvinced and wanted to stay and taste this so-called wine that was far superior to 84 Lafite.

The old man Tao Zugeng is a Hanist, a hardcore emperor, and a die-hard loyalist of Great Chinese culture; Old man Bloom, who can quarrel with Old Man Tao, is not a supporter of the hardcore Gallic idea?

Although Old Man Bloom admits that Lafite is not the best Shijie wine, this old man definitely thinks that the best red wine will only be produced in Bordeaux! Only Bordeaux can make a more Haode wine than Lafite!

…………

Zhang Jin glanced at the old man Bloom's virtue of refusing to stop if he didn't let him drink, looked around again, and after his party occupied this big table, the restaurant was completely full, and asked strangely:

"With so many guests waiting, are you sure you have time for a wine tasting?"

"Of course? I'm busy, but I'm sure I have time for a drink. In my kitchen, there are many old friends of mine who had just arrived from Gaul two days ago! Even without me, they would have been able to handle it. ”

Bloom, who was going to get back on the field for the Bordeaux wine, nodded affirmatively.

Only then did Zhang Jin remember that the menu of Burgundy Restaurant was not the same as the new menu of the Imperial Dining Room at noon. On the menu of the Imperial Dining Room, there are not only the names and prices of the dishes, but also who the cooking chef is and the chef's resume. And the menu of the Burgundy restaurant is still the same, only the name of the dish and the price.

So, in this way, the chefs at Burgundy are much more free than the chefs in the Imperial Dining Room! At least not, it's so troublesome to withdraw a few dishes without a chef.

The key point is that there are relatively few types of Western cuisine, and almost all chefs of the same cuisine are proficient in all dishes. The same is true for Chinese cuisine, where there are countless dishes, and at least hundreds of different dishes can be cooked with the same ingredients. …,

Except for Zhang Jin, no domestic celebrity chef can cook every dish of his own cuisine perfectly.

Coupled with the fact that Bloom was a romantic, lazy Gaul, not a Briton known for his rigor and rigidity, the old man naturally did not cling to the kitchen and diligently pursued it.

Seeing that Bloom had already said this, his eyes were already on par with the shameless Xiaoxin in a certain cartoon, and the people had just waved their hands to waive a table of orders, and Zhang Jin naturally found it difficult to refuse the old man's current request.

So, Zhang Jin had no choice but to stretch out his left hand in the direction of the round table and make a gesture of please! Ask this old man with a shy face who came to the door to beg for wine, and sat on the chair that was just added between himself and Shen Zhe.

…………

Obviously, the old man was very knowledgeable about wine tasting. Clearly know the precautions for every aspect of wine tasting, carefully prepare every detail, and never let any violent things happen. Even the slightest imperfection, this old man will never allow it!

So, as soon as the old man Bloom sat down in his seat, he couldn't wait to ask:

"Do you need to use an ice bucket to adjust the temperature?"

Bloom is well aware that the temperature of the wine is very important. Generally, the temperature of white wine is between 10~16 degrees Celsius, and the temperature of red wine is slightly higher than that of white wine. Dessert wines, on the other hand, can be cooler, usually between 7 and 9 degrees Celsius. The exception to this is vintage champagne, which cannot be tasted at low temperatures, because then its delicate flavours will be trapped and cannot be released.

Zhang Jin shook his head, he was full of confidence in his wine. His wine is not as delicate as a fruit wine made by a foreigner with a big nose, and as long as it is not a particularly extreme temperature, it will not affect its quality. Even with the change of outside temperature, it can change a variety of flavors. And every flavor is so wonderful that it doesn't matter.

Seeing Zhang Jin shaking his head, Bloom then asked the next question:

"What kind of cup do you want to taste this wine? Wide-bodied glasses, or narrow-bodied glasses, or champagne glasses? ”

Old man Bloom also knew that the same bottle of wine would smell different when poured into different shaped glasses. Its flavor will have different styles of expression depending on the shape of the cup. The diameter of the glass, the length of the glass, the width of the rim and even the thickness of the rim can all have a subtle impact on the flavor of the wine.

The wide and narrow mouth of the glass is particularly easy to condense the aroma, so that the wine shows a very unrestrained aroma. Bordeaux red wine glass, the body of the glass is long, the mouth is narrow, and the flavor of the wine is concentrated in the mouth.

The design of the narrow body and narrow mouth is to make the aroma of the wine not particularly outward, and it can show more subtle changes. Burgundy wine glasses have a short body, a wide belly, and a large mouth, which is suitable for putting the nose in and smelling the fragrance.

The old man Bloom asked professionally, but Zhang Jin, who is a grandmaster-level brewmaster, was even more unambiguous, and after smiling confidently, he said proudly:

"It's a good idea to have several cups ready if you want. The different aromas of my wines in different glasses are not small, but they are all charming! (To be continued)
