Distinguish the scent of wine
Red wine, to a large extent, has become a culture, an art. Red wine to see two smell three drinks. View its color, pour wine in a goblet, holding a cup of feet, look at its color. Smell its fragrance, shake the glass to let the fragrance release and smell its fragrance. Taste, sip a small mouth, let wine in the tip of the tongue dissolve, feel its taste and sour sweetness, let the fragrance of red wine spread in the mouth.
In addition to these, there are a lot of attention. The so-called smell of wine, in fact, the news of a variety of different wines contain different fruit fragrance. So, there is a wine nose to say. The nose is a wine tasting training tool, a necessary reference for aroma judgment. They not only help you to add to the sense of smell, but also in the popular language to describe these feelings, so that you enjoy the wine at the same time, the feelings and understanding between the teeth more profound.
Wine nose has a different set of combinations, generally include the world famous wines typical smell, into the essence of the bottle. When training, focus on the product, one bottle after another, training smell, and accumulate fragrance reference.
Change the taste of wine
Wine key is also a wine tasting tool, it uses the stainless steel handle on the magic technology of the small circle, play the role of appreciation.
The wine key can change the taste of the wine in 1 seconds. As a unique and interesting testing tool, the wine key allows you to immediately understand the wine's aging ability and development potential. The wine key changes the sensory properties (taste and aroma, flavor and aroma) of the wine in a controlled manner.
In fact, a wine key must be in contact with a cup of 100ml of wine for a second (or a bottle of 750ml of wine, using the "bottled" wine key), can show a year of aging potential. All types of wines are effective, including red wine, pink wine, white wine, dry wine, liqueur, liqueur and sparkling wines.
For the general public, the use of wine keys is numerous.
1, to help you buy a wine with aging ability, or know the wine to drink.
For example: at a wine cellar or wine fair, you can first taste and then immerse the wine key in wine for a few seconds. If the quality of the wine stays pleasant or the quality of the wine improves, you can buy it and save it. If the wine loses its balance quickly (tasteless, structurally damaged, unpleasant tasting, metallic, Madeira ...) ), must be consumed in the year.
2, know the wine can save time, reassess your possession of wine.
When you are interested in buying a batch of wine, first Test with the wine key. If you love the taste of the wine key after 4 seconds of immersion, keep it for 4 years (or drink the key in the wine after 4 seconds).
You can use the wine key to test your stash of wine, identify which wines should be served as early as possible, and which wines should continue to be aged.
3. Enjoy the young wine today
Enjoy the wine that should be aged 5 or 10 years. The wine key can quickly enhance the aroma of wine, and make it more soft taste, as if the wine was "opened." The wine's palate is more rounded, the aroma of dry white wine is enhanced, the acidity weakens, the taste is softer, and the sweet white wine is able to enhance the flavor of the mouth.
Red wine and wine glasses
Klaus Lido (Nineth generation descendants of the Lido family) wrote a new chapter in the wine world with the revolutionary idea of "expressive goblet", bringing people into a fascinating realm of enjoying the wine. He was the first person ever to discover that drinking alcoholic beverages with different styling glasses would bring different sensory stimuli. More than 40 years ago he found that different styling glasses would bring different flavors to the same wine.
George Lido (the tenth generation of descendants) further developed this idea. He found that "wine requires a cup shape." In other words, choosing the right glass can emphasize the flavor of the wine. The message of the wine-its fragrance and its flavor-depends on the shape of the cup. So the responsibility of the cup is to show the best side of the wine to the taster.
The legend of a wine knife
Wine Knife, the first step to open the red wine. This step is very important for red wine. Different wine with different cork, generally the better red wine cork is longer, the best red wine cork is generally 55 mm, and the general red wine is 45 mm or even shorter.
The etiquette of opening wine is also quite fastidious. Open wine first with the knife envelope cut off, generally open in the distance of the bottle top 1.5 centimeters, professionals generally use one to three knives can be resolved, more than three knives is a loss of standard. The bottle cannot rotate when it is Kaifeng. In order not to let Cork fall into the red wine inside affect the taste of red wine, generally open cork when two steps. First turn 3-4 laps, pull out the cork half. One more turn and the cork is completely opened. This kind of movement is very elegant, it is a kind of enjoyment for people, it is a kind of respect for wine. When people drink in unity, wine also has spirituality.
The Aveyron Province of France, a village of about 1200 people in the centre of the Aubry Plateau, has more than 30 well-known tool makers worldwide, producing a uniform type of top-pole tool Ch.laguiole, known as the French national knife.
Laguiole according to French pronunciation for Lagio music, but the local people retained the language of the Oak dialect, in the local was read as Laiole Leo Music. Besides, the word laiole also means the chapel.
