Luo Fei does not belong to any sect in the rivers and lakes, he is just an idler who likes red wine and wanders around.

On this day, in one of the palatial halls of a five-star hotel, a world-class blind tasting competition for worship wines is being held.

The so-called blind tasting, to put it simply, is to know the information of a wine in advance, such as the origin, variety, vintage and other information, just by tasting it!

There were five contestants at the competition, and each contestant sat alone at a table with five ISO wine glasses.

This is an international standard wine glass used in the wine industry all over the world, and the shape of the glass resembles a budding tulip.

Its main feature is to reflect objectivity and fairness, and will not highlight any characteristics of the wine, including advantages and disadvantages, it will directly present the original flavor of the wine, and the amount of each wine glass must be consistent during the competition, reflecting fairness.

There is a small rostrum in front of the five contestants, and there are five bottles of wine on the table on the rostrum, which are covered with professional blind tasting bags, and the contestants can not see the wine label, the shape of the bottle, or any clues that may reveal the wine information, such as the cork.

Contestants must judge the variety, country of origin, and production area of the wine only by watching and tasting the color, aroma, and taste of the wine without any obvious clues.

For example, guess that a certain wine is Lafite in 1982.

Luo Fei sat on the No. 1 platform, and the No. 2 platform was a sexy and hot beauty, wearing a white backless chiffon sundress, with a snow-white slender neck, slender thighs, and a touch of snow white on her chest was particularly eye-catching.

What is not commensurate with the hot body is her cold expression, smooth and fair face, revealing angular coldness.

Before the game started, Luo Fei was idle and bored, turned his head and looked at the No. 2 beauty.

Luo Fei smiled and winked at the beauty, as a greeting, who knew that the beauty had a serious expression, expressionless, without the slightest reaction, looking at Luo Fei was like looking at a dead thing, Luo Fei suddenly felt that the air was going to freeze, and couldn't help muttering: Cold beauty.

At No. 3 was an old man with a pipe in his mouth, his head shiny with oil, and not a single hair.

He was wearing a loose linen Chinese gown, a goatee, and small eyes, and at the moment he was stroking his beard, with a smile on his face, and his two small eyes shot at the treacherous nature of seeing through the world.

On the 4th platform, a middle-aged man dressed as a local tyrant is a big-bellied poop, with a gold chain as thick as hemp rope hanging around his neck.

On the 5th stage was a young man with square-rimmed glasses, who sat in a proper manner, did not move, and looked very quiet.

At this time, an old man wearing a straight suit and a very gentleman walked in front of everyone, he was Qi Haotian, the chairman of the jury of this competition.

He looked around the room solemnly, nodded slightly, and then read it out loud, his voice low but with unquestionable authority: "I announce the official start of the 5th World Worship Wine Elite Blind Tasting Competition. ”

The duration of the competition is 120 minutes, and the time for tasting and judging each wine is 20 minutes, with a 5-minute break in between.

Luo Fei was not in a hurry, first brushed his hair with his hand, looked at the other players around him, and finally stopped his gaze on the chest of the cold beauty on the No. 2 platform on his left, the snow white like clotted white jade seemed to attract his attention.

Leng Meiren felt the hot and rude eyes next to her, a little angry, and snorted heavily.

Luo Fei smiled slightly, turned his head contentedly, and began to pick up the cup in front of him.

He tilted the glass slightly 45 degrees, and against the background of the white tablecloth, he began to observe the color of the red wine in the glass, and found that the red wine had a deep red glow in the middle, the color was almost black, but the edges began to fade to a slight brick red color.

He brought the glass to his nose, first did not move the glass, slowly inhaled, sniffed deeply, and then began to shake the glass rhythmically, and as the glass swayed, the fragrance slowly seeped out.

Looking at the swaying wine body and smelling the familiar aroma, Luo Fei's thoughts seemed to return to his very young age.

It was a time when his memory was already a little blurry, about six years old or older, Luo Fei only remembered that he lived with an old man with white hair, and as for the other relatives, it seemed that he had no memory at all.

In my memory, the old man woke him up early in the morning, took him into a very large wood, and then told him to get close to all kinds of plants and fruits, told him to try to smell them, and asked him to write them down, otherwise he would have to beat his palms.

The cold and cold ring ruler hit the immature palm of the six-year-old little Luo Fei, Xiao Luo Fei felt the pain and only drilled into his heart, but the old man stared at him seriously and didn't let him cry, he could only let the tears flow down his cheeks, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

As the days passed, he became more and more familiar with the scents of nature, until he came close to a certain plant and could call out its name even with his eyes closed.

The palms of the hands are being beaten less and less.

Thinking back to the game, the nose is drawn to the familiar aromas, blackcurrant, black plum, cherry, cedar, white truffle, coffee, smoke, roasting spices, thyme, rosemary......

Luo Fei has a special talent, he can capture the connection between a wine and the land it is planted on from the aroma of the wine, feel the smell of the land, and thus accurately judge its production area and characteristics.

Luo Fei narrowed his eyes slightly, condensed his dantian, and gathered his mind, he focused on capturing the faint smell of the land through the faint fragrance emanating from the wine glass, and then began to exert his unique olfactory function, spreading out like a beam of boundless tentacles.

A map of the world came to his mind, with lush vines, steep slopes, and vineyards covered with stones.

From the southern hemisphere to the northern hemisphere, across the equator, back and forth, Luo Fei's thinking tentacles finally stopped in one place, steep and stony, with clouds and cold air running through from south to north, reddish-brown volcanic geology......

Luo Fei opened his eyes and smiled slightly, this is it, Deer Leap District, located in the Deer Leap District (Stag's Leap) in Napa Valley, California's wine mecca.

At this time, Luo Fei already felt that all the clues of this wine were gradually clear.

To the east of the Luyue appellation, the soil at the bottom of the cliff slope is predominantly volcanic, resulting in a strong, compact and complex wine.

In the west of the Luyue production area, the alluvial soil is the main one, and the wine produced is soft and fragrant.

This wine is like the best of both worlds, combining fire and water, and the taste is soft and secretly strong.

It must be......
