C64 Steps to Drink Red Wine

"This is Mayor Gao Weidong of Fengan City. He is quite a nice person. Next to him is his wife, Yuan Ming. She is from the second family of Fengan City, the Yuan family." When they returned to their seats, Liu Ruoxi introduced them to Yan Tian in a low voice.

Not long after, the royal ball officially started. This so-called royal ball was in fact an event organized by the Xue Clan. To put it bluntly, the famous people of Fengan City gathered together and boasted to each other.

Of course, there were also all kinds of delicacies and red wine. Wasn't this Yan Tian's favorite? However, just as Yan Tian was about to feast, he suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain coming from his waist. With a single glance, he could tell that it was Liu Ruoxi pinching him.

"Let me tell you, you better restrain yourself a little, or else you'll be even better looking than me." Liu Ruoxi stared at Yan Tian and warned him.

Yan Tian didn't really eat much after hearing Liu Ruoxi's words. Yan Tian still had that much self-control over himself. He even picked up a glass of red wine and slowly savored it in a very gentlemanly manner.

Yan Tian was very familiar with red wine. Yan Tian could tell the brand and year of this wine cup to anyone who picked up a glass of red wine. This was a special training that Yan Tian had received after becoming an assassin.

First, he poured wine. Then, he watched the wine. Then, he swirled the wine. Then, he smelled the wine and tasted the wine. The way Yan Tian drank the red wine looked very graceful.

"Your act is pretty good." No matter how elegant Yan Tian's movements were, it was all an act in Liu Ruoxi's eyes.

"What do you mean my act is pretty good?" I'm an expert at red wine, I tell you. " Yan Tian was immediately displeased. He couldn't bear to have a glass of red wine being said by Liu Ruoxi to be faked. He absolutely couldn't stand it.

"Oh? Tell me, how did you become an expert? "How skilled are you?" Liu Ruoxi looked curiously at Yan Tian.

"Ahem, from the looks of it, you know that you don't understand how to drink red wine. Hubby will give you a chance to spread the knowledge." Yan Tian coughed and said proudly.

Liu Ruoxi couldn't help but roll her eyes when she saw Yan Tian's pretentious appearance, "Tell me, I'm listening."

Yan Tian laughed lightly and picked up the bottle of red wine. "Darling Ruoxi, you're also a frequent attendee, so you should have come in contact with red wine quite a few times. How many times do you know about red wine?"

"Steps? I think it's six. " Liu Ruoxi said uncertainly after thinking for a while.

"Wrong, the correct step is eight, you idiot." Yan Tian proudly patted Liu Ruoxi on the head.

"Stop, stop patting my head, isn't that just missing two? What are the correct steps? "

Yan Tian shook the red wine glass in his hand and said, "First, it's warm wine. The best temperature for drinking red wine is between 18 to 21 degrees Celsius. If it's summer and you want to drink red wine, you need to freeze for a while and take it out an hour before drinking. If it's winter and it's too cold, it's not suitable for drinking red wine.

"The second step is to wake the wine up. After the red wine is activated, place it quietly for 30 minutes. First, let it come into contact with the air so as to increase the aroma of the wine and remove the odors. The second is to let the sawdust from the inverted wine sink to the bottom. "

"Then the third step is to hold the wine. Of the ten people holding the wine, seven of them would make a mistake, their fingers pinching the legs under the wine cup, not touching the bottom of the wine cup to prevent the temperature from affecting the wine's temperature. But if the winter wine's temperature is low, you can use your hand to hold the wine belly to increase the wine's temperature."

The fourth step is to pour the wine. The correct way to pour the wine is to let the wine label face up, one hand holding the wine, the other controlling the bottom of the wine bottle. In order to support the wine bottle, one must place a towel on the hand, in order to prevent the temperature of the wine from affecting the temperature of the wine.

"The fifth step is to watch the wine." As he spoke, Yan Tian kept looking at the red wine glass in his hand.

Just as Liu Ruoxi was enjoying herself, she noticed that Yan Tian stopped talking. She hurriedly pushed Yan Tian away, "Continue talking. It sounds rather particular."

"Hehe, so my wife and darling likes listening. The fifth step is to watch the wine, and the color of the red wine will gradually become fainter with time. When I was young, it was purple red, and then it slowly turned dark red. "Place the glass in front of the white background and tilt it slightly outwards, about 45 degrees, to clearly observe the color of the wine."

"The sixth step is to shake the wine. Before drinking the red wine, you have to shake the wine glass to let the oxygen into the wine to make the wine smell and to release the ester, ether, and other chemicals within the wine."

Yan Tian lightly swirled the red wine cup in his hand a few times before putting it to his nose to smell it. He said in an intoxicated manner, "The seventh step is to smell the wine."

He then swirled the red wine cup next to his nose and sniffed it, "Smelling wine usually requires two times. After shaking the wine, you can cover the mouth of the cup with your nose and take a deep breath. The taste of good wine is very thick.

The last step is to taste the wine. You only need to taste a little bit of the wine and let it fill your mouth, slowly stirring the wine with your tongue so that it will touch the tip of your tongue, the sides of your tongue, and the base of your tongue. Then you can slowly taste the structure and fragrance of the wine.

After saying that, Yan Tian took a sip of the red wine in his hand. After that, he closed his eyes and savored the taste.

After a long while, Yan finally opened his eyes and said, "This wine's taste is unrestrained, sweet and direct. It's rich in dark berries, sweet spices, and flowers. The wine is very attractive, tasty and not heavy at all. The tannins that are implied in it provide a rather firm skeleton for the wine. The style is magnificent and the current flavor is easy to drink. It is breathtaking. "

He then placed the wine cup under the light and looked at it before smiling and saying, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be Ode Wine. Each of the two ingredients used is 50% medium quality pearls and 80% new oak barrel."

After hearing what Yan Tian had said, Liu Ruoxi looked at Yan Tian in disbelief. Why did it feel like Yan Tian understood everything? He had said a lot over coffee at his house, and now he was talking about another lot over red wine.

Not bad, you know quite a lot. Liu Ruoxi praised Yan Tian in admiration.

"Worthy of praise? Shouldn't that old woman reward him with something? "

"Hmm? Reward? What do you want? " Liu Ruoxi curiously turned her head to look at Yan Tian.

Yan Tian thought about it for a moment, then said with a smile, "Hehe, I don't want money or anything like that. My wife and darling can just give me a kiss."

After hearing what Yan Tian said, Liu Ruoxi just stared coldly at Yan Tian. Yan Tian had a very gentlemanly look one second ago, but in the next, he had the look of a scoundrel. How quick!

"Sure, but not now." Liu Ruoxi pouted and said after thinking for a while.

Upon hearing Liu Ruoxi say yes, the excited Yan Tian immediately turned around to look at her, "When will it be alright for my wife?"

"About this, go to sleep. If you're lucky, I'll give you a kiss. If you're unlucky, then that's bad." At this moment, Liu Ruoxi actually put on a very innocent expression and pouted at Yan Tian.

"Ugh …" Hearing Liu Ruoxi's words, Yan Tian was speechless. After all this time, he had been dreaming, and it had even made Yan Tianbai happy.

Seeing Yan Tian being played with, Liu Ruoxi secretly smiled, but no matter how she laughed, Yan Tian still noticed. Yan Tianzhi gritted his teeth in anger, wondering if he should teach Liu Ruoxi a lesson.

Yan Tian reached out his hand from behind Liu Ruoxi and gently hugged her.

"Hey, what are you doing? Move your hand away." Liu Ruoxi naturally felt Yan Tian's hand, so she quickly twisted her body.

"You can let me hug you if you don't let me kiss you, right? You're my wife now, that's not too much." Yan Tian naturally wouldn't let go. Since Liu Ruoxi dared to mess with him, he naturally had to collect some loss money.

"Let go, who's your wife?"

Seeing that Liu Ruoxi's body was twisting non-stop, Yan Tian immediately pulled her into his embrace. "Hehe, my wife, don't move about too much. If others were to see this, they would think that we're in trouble."
