Chapter 1052

This is the basic process of the annual California wine tasting. In the first few days, major wineries in California and even the United States applied to participate in the wine tasting, and then basically distinguished the new wine quality of major wineries through the scoring of major wine tasting experts, so as to lay a foundation for the new wine sales of major wineries.

The last two or three days are the final auction and celebration reception. The auction will generally last for 2-3 days, depending on the specific situation. For example, if there are many wines with good years and excellent quality, it may be extended.

With the beginning of the wine tasting, the winemakers and owners of the major wineries in Napa Valley around Li Feng said hello to Li Feng and left to meet friends at the venue.

Similarly, not only the operators of these wineries, but also many women beside Li Feng were curious. Then, accompanied by the security and accompanying staff, they walked into the lively venue to watch the wine tasting scenes they were interested in.

In addition to wine tasting, there is also an opportunity for communication between the wine industry, such as the communication between the winery owners, the communication between the wine assessors, the communication between the winery and the wine merchants, etc. from the latest brewing technology and new technology, it can be said that all people are very busy.

Generally, the wine tasting is a private gathering. Therefore, it is generally not publicized. The participants in the wine tasting include winery owners, wine merchants, wine critics, and some rich groups. Instead, it is the final auction. The Wine Association will invite media reporters to publicize.

Therefore, every year, whether it's the wine tasting party in California or the wine tasting party in Bordeaux and Burgundy, France, although we can always hear such and such news in the outside world, such as the high score or even full score of a certain wine, there are few ordinary people who can really see the wine tasting party.

......

It can be said that the wine industry seems to be a little exclusive, which is based on the internal evaluation of the relevant employees of the industry. After the final evaluation, it will be released to the public. Whether the outside world believes in the wine evaluation results or not has never been a problem that these internal grading personnel need to consider.

To put it bluntly, for ordinary people, if they say this wine is good, ordinary people can only follow the trend, and the voice is in the hands of these leaders in the wine industry.

As a wine tasting party, it is also very much like a large party. There are all kinds of snacks and red wine at the wine tasting site. Many small groups are surrounded by each other to communicate, make friends and exchange their topics.

As the host began to introduce the major wine critics, the first person to take the lead was naturally Robert Parker, who now has "the first person in the wine industry" and "wine emperor". In addition to Robert Parker, two of the world's top three wine tasters, Ms. Jesse Robinson and James shackle, also came.

It has the final say that wine can be the top three wine taster's wine recommendation if it can get the top recommendation of the above wine judges. In a sense, whether the wine can be recognized by the outside world is the top judge of the wine.

This is why Robert Parker has such a high reputation in the wine industry. After all, all wineries hope to be highly praised by Robert Parker. If they get the top evaluation, it is enough to make an ordinary winery famous and the "money scene" of natural wineries bright.

Of course, in addition to the three wine tasters, there are many unknown wine tasters. After all, if so many wineries look like participating in the wine tasting party, they don't know when they will be judged by only three people.

......

It is not easy to give a reasonable score for a red wine. The score at the wine tasting in California is based on the percentage system created by Robert Parker, usually from 50 to 100.

Among them, 96-100 points are regarded as perfect quality, and 90-95 points are regarded as good wine in the general sense. In fact, most wineries provide participating red wine with a score of less than 90 points. If a winery can score more than 90 points for a long time, this winery must be a top winery.

For example, wineries such as Xiaoying and Harlan have been selected for more than 90 every year since the 1990s, and many of them have scored more than 96 points. In some years, they get full marks, and those wines that often get high scores can sell at sky high prices.

As for red wine with a score of 50 or less, even if it is used as wine seasoning in restaurants, it is generally disdained to use it. Perhaps those tramps, those who are bankrupt and the lowest level of society will use it.

In addition to this percentage system, France takes the 20 point system as the standard. Generally, more than 16 points is the standard for a long time, and if more than 18 points, it is outstanding performance.

"Pinot Noir, do you know the number of the wine we offer?" Sitting in a corner, Li Feng chatted with Francois Pino. Seeing that the venue hosting the wine tasting was so busy, many wine critics tasted the red wine in their glasses one after another, hung up cards after scoring, poured out a glass of water to wash, and then entered the next round of wine tasting. Li Feng asked curiously.

"John, you don't know. The wine tasting is blind. No one knows what their winery provides before it is finished and officially announced. If you want to know where they provide, no one will answer you for the time being."

When Kenny heard Li Feng's words, he immediately joked and glanced at Li Feng. It was like seeing a pair of earth buns that had never seen the world, which made Li Feng almost throw his fist directly.

......

"Uh... Kenny, I think it's over. Let's go to exercise together. Boxing is still a very good sport."

"Er... John, I think it's better to forget. You may have forgotten the rules just now. After all, you are also a big man now. It's natural for the following people to understand such small things, right?"

“...”

Looking at Kenny's picture that you are very powerful and I admit defeat, Li Feng was speechless for a while.

"Hehe... John, don't worry. Besides, you should believe in the quality of our wine. Harlan, Luyue and other famous wineries won't mention it. The second-class Bellinger and Montelena are also famous wineries in Napa Valley. Finally, including post horse and Bryant, although their reputation is not obvious, their performance over the years is excellent. Just wait for the good news." Old Pino smiled and comforted Li Feng.

"Okay..."

After listening to old Pino's comfort, Li Feng thought it was true. He was a little anxious. Looking at old Pino sitting on the Diaoyutai, Li Feng couldn't help thinking that he was still "young"!

"Joseph, I haven't seen you for a few days!"

"Hello, Miss Sharon."

"I don't need to introduce you, the famous Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman."

"Please...!"

Li Feng was chatting with old Pinot first. A familiar voice came. Looking up, he saw that Sharon Stone was greeting his bodyguard leader Joseph, and then came first. Behind him was a Hollywood star couple, the famous Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman.

......

"Hello, Sharon!"

"John, long time no see!"

Li Feng took the lead in getting up to meet Sharon Stone, greeted Sharon Stone and gave him a face-to-face gift. Naturally, in the corner where no one saw the two close together, Li Feng gently pinched the Hollywood star.

Well, although Sharon Stone is now 40 years old, I have to say that God really loves her. Don't say 40 year old women in Europe and America. In today's era, there are many rapidly aging women after 30, and Sharon really can't see that she is a 40 year old woman in Europe and America.

The figure is still concave convex and delicate. Although there is a little light crow's feet at the corners of the eyes, it is more mature and sexy.

"Hello, John, it's been a long time. When you return to Los Angeles next time, John, you should get together more!"

"Hehe... Tom, Nicole, long time no see, Hello! As for the party after returning to Los Angeles, if I have time, I will naturally attend it. "

"OK, we'll send you an invitation at the next Hollywood party!"

"OK, get together next time!"

“...”

In fact, not only Sharon and Tom Cruise, but also many Hollywood celebrities were present at the wine tasting. Many people were even the owners of the winery directly, such as the famous Hollywood super director Coppola, but only three people came to say hello. There is no shortage of Hollywood at Napa Valley wine reviews every year.
