Chapter 374: The World's Most Expensive Red Wine
You must know that from the point of view of brand price, Romanée Conti is generally more expensive than "Château Lafite". And in terms of the total amount of red wine, the price of a 750 ml standard bottle of "Château Lafite" and three bottles of 3000 ml Romanée Conti are not equal at all under normal circumstances. Moreover, the Romanée Conti red wine that appeared in the "Mermaid" movie was made in 1990...
Just as everyone was secretly weighing in their hearts, they saw Shen Li turn to the bodyguard and say, "Open the wooden box." ”
Then everyone saw a foreign bodyguard in a black coat, obeying Shen Li's instructions and carefully opening the wooden box.
Suddenly, a 750ml bottle of Lafite red wine was presented in front of everyone's eyes. Almost everyone present, the only thought now is to see how many years this bottle of Château Lafite is? After all, they have tasted the top ten red wine brands in the world, and they have also collected a lot. If the year is recent, even after 2000, they may think that this is a bit of a fuss.
However, just as everyone opened their eyes and looked carefully at the Lafite red wine in the wooden box, they only saw that the small words "produced in 1787" were impressively printed on the bottle packaging!
"Lafite from 1787!? Am I not mistaken!?"
"It's really made in 1787! You see, it's engraved with th. j.!”
The directors and stars looked at the red wine brought by Shen Li, and they only felt like a dream!
At this time, director Xu Yike looked at the red wine with an obsessive expression and said, "Lafite produced in 1787 is the most expensive bottle of red wine in the world. As early as 1985, at Christie's in London, the price of a bottle of $160,000 set a record for the most expensive red wine transaction in the Guinness Book of Books. In the Forbes Collection, there is a bottle of Lafite from 1787. j.”
“th. J. A few letters in English, which represents the bottle, was once in the collection of one of the most influential figures in American history, Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States. ”
Some of the surrounding staff who don't know much about red wine were amazed after listening to Director Xu Yike's explanation!
"In 1985, it sold for $160,000, and now in 2016, 31 years have passed!
"If you calculate it at an annual increase of 10%, if you count compound interest, at least ...... At least 600,000 dollars! And it's dollars!"
"Oh my God!$600,000...... A bottle of red wine, that's crazy!"
......
Director Zhou Xingxing, director Xu Yike, is a wine lover and wine collector in private. Even in Director Xu's mansion, a cellar dedicated to storing red wine was built, which was filled with red wines of various brands and vintages. Anyone who has ever been to this wine cellar cannot but be amazed.
However, the two of them, who love red wine, looked straight at the bodyguard's hand, this bottle of Château Lafite from 1787! You know, what Shen Li said just now was to share it as a gift and share it with everyone. This also means that tonight, they will be lucky enough to taste the world's most precious and high-end No. 1 red wine!?
Thinking of this, the eyes of directors Zhou Xingxing and Xu Yike became even more different. If this bottle of Château Lafite is put up for auction outside, I am afraid that the price of 10 million can be auctioned out! Therefore, according to 750 ml, the price per ml is ...... It is...... 13,000 RMB! A small sip, then 200,000 is gone......
"Shen, Mr. Shen, this bottle of Lafite from 1787, brought it tonight?" Director Xu Yike asked Shen Li with great concern.
"Well, whatever you want, then open it up. When Shen Li spoke, his expression was indifferent throughout the whole process. The directors and stars who saw him standing in front of him really admired his wealth from the bottom of their hearts......
In fact, this bottle of red wine is one of the collections of the game. It was given to him as a quest reward. Instead of hiding it by himself, Shen Li just remembered that the movie "Mermaid" had a shot about red wine. So I simply brought this bottle of Lafite from 1787.
But then again, if Xing Ye's "Mermaid" is filmed later, I'm afraid that Shen Li will probably drink this red wine alone on a whim. When the time comes, it is estimated that there is only an empty bottle of Lafite in 1787......
After Shen Li gave the order, an accompanying bodyguard beside him took out a corkscrew from his body, intending to open the red wine on the spot.
However, at this moment, Xu Yike, the director who loves red wine very much, hurriedly stopped him loudly and said, "Wait a minute! Don't open it here! Let's go inside!"
Because this bottle of red wine is too expensive and rare, it may make a few people present only drink it once in their lives! Therefore, in the process of opening red wine, we must be careful and careful, pious and pious! Strive not to waste every drop of red wine, because it is tens of thousands of dollars......
So everyone brought red wine to the living room of the mansion, which is the place where the protagonist of the movie "Mermaid" is in the camera, talking and pretending to be forced.
It's just that it's not filming now, and there is no difference between the protagonist and the supporting role. The only thing that exists is a terrific character like Shen Li, who opens a bottle of red wine casually, which is the world's most ten-million-level red wine......
At this time, Director Xu Yike said to Shen Li very appropriately, "Mr. Shen, why don't you open this bottle of red bar!
"Okay, then I'll do it. Shen Li casually took the bottle opener handed by Director Xu, and then completely opened the bottle of Lafite from 1787 in front of everyone present.
When the cork on the bottle was removed, everyone was not exaggerating, as if they could feel and smell the aroma of aged wine......
Shen Li saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, but he didn't rush to pour out the red wine, but turned back to the bodyguard next to him and said, "Go and bring the decanter." ”
"Okay, boss. The bodyguard took the order and left.
The decanter, also known as a decanter bottle or decanter jug, is a vessel used when drinking freshly fermented wine, which is used to allow the wine to come into contact with the air, so that the aroma of the wine can fully volatilize, and the sediment in the wine is separated.
The classic old world wines, the red wines, all need to be awakened. After decanting, the wine will ferment more perfectly and mellow...... So this step is a must.
The surrounding crew members were deeply impressed by Shen Li's taste. Shen Li not only prescribes such an expensive and rare red wine. And even the steps of wine tasting are done very carefully and with great pursuit......
