[分享]便宜的好酒 - 2005 Cabriz Dao - $6.99
上礼拜和朋友们玩,一粒当sommelier的老友拎了瓶新的出来。当时我们已经酒足饭饱坐在沙发上聊天,谁也没在意这瓶被不知声的放到桌上的酒。 事后证明被不知声放到桌上的东西是好货,味道有些红果子有些香料最后还有一点点香草, 十分简单十分好喝,就象传说中法国乡村路边小馆子里没名没姓的house wine, 给疲劳的一天画上个满意的句号的那种。 看了牌子原来是葡萄牙产的来自Dao, 那是个向来出又好喝又便宜红酒的地方。 一问价钱更激动了,才$6.99. 节日家里人来人往的,存几瓶这个正好。
我在网上查了查价钱,$6.99-9.99不等,买一箱有特价。

有哇。 我推荐几种:
法国Alsace酒区产的白酒很好。那儿种了好几种白葡萄,有gewurztraminer, pinot gris, riesling, sylvaner, pinot blanc等等。 头一个特别好闻有荔枝味儿, 第二个很好喝, 第三个很高贵, 第四个有underground cred, 第五个很家常。 你随便挑瓶$15左右的就行。
意大利的prosecco. 带气泡,没有香槟酒那么细致但简单好喝。 我在Whole Food买了瓶才十块,喝得很痛快。
法国Loire区出的Vourvay, 大概$20-30之间,是我知道中quality/price比例最高的白酒。 通常有些年份,颜色金黄,喝了有蜂蜜味儿。

说起酒来,想起个事儿,问问各位爱喝酒的谁知道。
9月份我去泰国玩的时候,落地签,带的现金不够,机场的信用卡又取不出钱来。人家愣是不让我入境。
无奈之下,只好找机场的中国人帮忙。瞅到个7,8个中年人的小团体,遂上去搭讪求助。 挺落魄也挺好玩的,必须拿出足够的证据证明自己不是骗子。
这不就聊上了。后来得知他们几个人是张裕集团的管理层,去法国参观酒庄刚回来,在泰国这边有商务谈判。
我一听,特有兴趣,赶紧把自己的问题都一一扔出来。搞得人家都以为我是商务间谍来着。据那位总工声称,全球有1/3的高档酒都是他们产的。我觉得很匪夷所思。你们有谁喝过吗?根据我的经验,在超市里买到的最贵的张裕的葡萄酒也不好喝。

那薄如蝉翼的未来,经不起谁来拆。
我从来没喝过,没法说啥。 他们自夸产世界上1/3的高档酒是胡说八道,不可思议的胡说八道。 我看了他们的网址,很明显这是个上市了的商业公司跟卖手机的一样,只不过他们的产品是葡萄酒。 谁要是对这个感兴趣,可看篇Jancis Robinson的文章。 伊是粒有权威的Master of Wine, 知识很广。 她这篇旧了点,不过这些年产量只会在增加。据那位总工声称,全球有1/3的高档酒都是他们产的。我觉得很匪夷所思。你们有谁喝过吗?

下面摘自伊文章中:
中国是前十大葡萄酒产家
先是从南美和东欧进口白酒According to world's most pernickety wine statistics collator the OIV [l'Office International de la Vigne et du Vin], total vineyard area in China increased from 188,000 hectares in 1997 to 260,000 just three years later, an increase of 38 per cent or half the total area planted to vines in Australia in 2000. China is now one of the world's top ten producers of wine.
因为红酒对健康有益,开始种红酒In the early 1990s at the very beginning of the wine boom, encouraged by a government unhappy at the proportion of its cereals which went for distillation, white wine was in demand. Vast quantities of cheap wine were imported from South America and southern Europe and blended in with local produce to be sold as 'Chinese wine'. At one stage a significant proportion of what went into the bottle owed little to grapes.
Sinca碰到的张裕在泰国的确有生意,他们和泰国一家公司联合制酒But by 1997 the healthful effects of red wine consumption were officially promulgated. Over the next two years, out went the white wine vines and in, with typical Chinese efficiency, went the red - so much so that there is now a national shortage of white wine grapes. Meanwhile China has become much, much less dependent on bulk imports and dubious helpmeets. Wine imported in bulk, which reached a peak in 1997 and1998 and is currently chiefly from Chile, was down to well under 10 per cent of the total volume of wine sold in China last year, enough to fill 457 million bottles.
While Chinese wine investors are spreading their wings abroad - the country's largest wine company Changyu is feeling so confident that it has begun a partnership with its Thai importer to produce wine in Thailand -
Changyu - Century-old business based in Shandong and Asia's biggest wine operation overall with a well-established market. Now in partnership with the French, family-owned Castel company in China with heavily-advertised new tourist complex near Yantai.
Most wineries in China are currently working out whether to follow the French or New World wine model, and you can be sure that that decision will not be based on emotion. Changyu has clearly opted for France in an alliance with Castel of Bordeaux (owners of Nicolas, Oddbins et al) called Château Changyu-Castel. Other past outside investors include Jeanjean and William Pitters of France while Sella & Mosca of Sardinia, Torres of Spain and the owner of Norton in Argentina all have some sort of current involvement.
