God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 1129

Xu Jingxing raised his eyebrows when he heard the words: "Wine cabinet? It means that your tobacco boss has more good wine hidden?"

Yaya stuck out her tongue: "Yes, yes, there are dozens of bottles."

Xu Jingxing patted the table: "Okay, you Chen Xiaoyan, you're willing to take out only one bottle of wine even though you've hidden so much good wine, isn't it too stingy, you're still hiding it with me?"

Chen Xiaoyan curled his lips: "You can't do without it," he said, directly took the bottle of Louis XIII's skillful Kaiping, poured the wine, divided the wine, and then handed Xu Jingxing a glass: "Taste how it tastes first, hmph, it's cheaper for you , this bottle of wine is even my grandfather's eyes, if it's not for the sake of Sister Qingqing, I would not be willing to take it out for you to drink. "

"Isn't it? Miss Yan would take a mere bottle of Louis XIII in your eyes?" Xu Jingxing was a little surprised. Before this girl said that Louis XIII didn't have any fruit juice, obviously she couldn't wait to drink it. Why are you treating her like a baby again now?

"What do you know?" Chen Xiaoyan picked up the wine glass and sniffed gently: "This bottle of wine has a lot of history, it's different from ordinary Louis XIII."

"What's the difference? It's just that it's been stored for a longer time, how can I still drink it?" Xu Jingxing took the wine bottle and looked at it, and he could see some clues. First of all, the wine bottle is made of white crystal. Yes, and it is purely hand-carved, whether the carving is good or the texture of the crystal is top-notch, that is to say, this wine bottle alone can be sold for tens of thousands of dollars, no, even more .

Secondly, the trademark on this wine bottle is not the same as what he had imagined. The current Louis XIII trademark on the bottle is a round forehand spear, while the one on this wine bottle is a backhanded centaur. The difference is quite obvious.

Counterfeiting is certainly impossible to be counterfeiting, so the difference in trademarks should be due to age.

Could it be that the trademark of this backhand spear Remy Martin is relatively old?
He really didn't have much research on Remy Martin, and he hadn't read any information on it, so he didn't know the difference between the two trademarks.

But if he didn’t understand, he asked. He pointed to the hand-carved logo on the lower part of the bottle neck and asked, “What’s the deal with this backhand logo? Is it older? Or is it another brand under Remy Martin?”

Chen Xiaoyan replied triumphantly: "You are smart, this Remy Martin backhand trademark is the predecessor of Remy Martin forehand, which was changed in 68."

"That is to say, this wine was produced before six or eight years? It has just turned 50 years old, so it's not too old." Xu Jingxing was a little confused. Doesn't this mean that all cognacs that use the Remy Martin Forehand trademark Not a true Louis XIII?

"Hmph, of course it's not that simple," Chen Xiaoyan replied proudly, "This wine is a blended wine."

"Wine blending?" Although Xu Jingxing didn't have much research on foreign wines, he also understood what blending wine was all about.

Blending is a very important link in the wine-making process. It is a process of blending wines of different varieties, different origins, and different years. Generally speaking, the quality of blended wine will be better, and the wine will be more stable and harmonious. , and even certain flavors of blended wine are more popular than the original.

However, for these aged wines, blended wine refers to the kind that is blended with old wines of different years. Generally, a bottle or a barrel of old wine is found, and then the barrel of old wine is mixed with A number of new wines are blended into a batch of new blended wines.Naturally, the purpose of doing this is to maximize profits. However, the taste and quality of this kind of blended wine generally will not drop too much, and even improve in a certain aspect.

If it is a blended wine of the new era, it is really nothing special, and the market price is only tens of thousands of dollars a bottle. Most of the Louis XIII on the market now is this kind of blended wine, and this is already very conscientious, after all It is blended with old wine, not pure new wine.

But the bottle Chen Xiaoyan took out is different. This wine was blended six or eight years ago. What does it mean?It means that some old wine was used in the blending of this wine before [-], and it was old wine before [-], and now it is the old wine among old wines.

To be more precise, Chen Xiaoyan's bottle of Louis XIII is far more than 50 years old, but at least 100 years old.

Thinking of this, he was too lazy to ask the bottom line, picked up the wine glass and sniffed it lightly, then took a sip, savored it carefully and nodded, "Yes, it's a serious wine blend, strong enough , it is fragrant enough, and the taste is complex enough, cool, very good."

But the taste, how should I put it, is not particularly delicious. After all, wine is full of alcohol. The higher the alcohol concentration, the harder it is to control the taste, and the more difficult it is for many people to drink.

And Louis NO.13 is called the king of spirits. This title is not for nothing. Although the degree of 40 degrees is nothing compared with many liquors, it is very scary in wine. Stimulant, winemakers have thought of many ways, the most commonly used is blending and aging, but no matter how blended, no matter how long it is left, the alcohol level will not change, the first thing you will feel after drinking it What I got was that kind of strong stimulation.

But the good thing about Louis XIII is that it has a special fragrance, and the fragrance is very strong, and the layers of the fragrance are also very rich, especially the fragrance of the blended wine is really like perfume, and you can feel the different fragrances in it when you taste it carefully. The refreshing feeling burst out under the stimulation of alcohol.

In addition, the aging period of Louis XIII is so long, the taste of this wine is cool and soft, but it is very comfortable to drink in the mouth. I swallowed it.

So it is not unreasonable to say that this Louis XIII is famous all over the world, but some people may not like this taste, at least Xu Jingxing doesn't like it very much after tasting it, it is too fragrant, just take a sip, But I feel that the whole body is wrapped in a strong aroma, as if the breath has the smell of Louis XIII.

This is really not an exaggeration, that kind of feeling, if you have a chance to taste it, you will understand it.

It’s just that not everyone has the opportunity to taste the Louis XIII of this level brought out by Chen Xiaoyan, because the age of this wine is definitely more than 100 years old, it may be longer, it should be a century and a half old, because of the softness of this wine The feeling is the most prominent among all the aged wines he has drunk, and it is almost bred with aura. I don't know if I thought it was brewed with water with aura.

Thinking of this, he raised his head and said to Chen Xiaoyan: "This wine is at least 150 years old."

Chen Xiaoyan was stunned: "How do you know?"
