Watching wine as an aperitif is different from drinking with dessert, and drinking wine with friends when watching DVD is different. In addition to drinking on weekdays, red wine is also very popular at wedding banquets and parties, but the consumption varies greatly in different places and different environments. If you drink a lot of red wine at the party, the price can be cheaper and the types of wine can be more popular to avoid waste. If there are more ladies, you'd better prepare some delicious white wine and champagne. See whether to choose white wine or red wine with dishes. In terms of side dishes, cream chicken is suitable for white wine, and roast mutton should be accompanied by mellow red wine. Red wine with red meat and white wine with white meat. Generally speaking, red wine is suitable with red meat, sauces, cheese and bacon products. Liquor prefers fish and vegetables. Look at dozens to hundreds of cheap wines, thousands or even hundreds of thousands of expensive wines. The price of wine will change in different countries or different distribution channels. But in any case, the price is always related to the quality of grapes and the work of winemakers. A bottle of good wine mainly reflects the hard work on the vines all year round, and these costs are reflected in this bottle of wine. You can eat high-end snacks or have business banquets. If it is a daily dinner or a family treat, the taste is acceptable to everyone, and there is no need to be too upscale. In short, after locking the money budget, it is convenient to choose and avoid spending too much. Seeing the vintage is more suitable for old world red wine, so after choosing French or Italian wine, you should choose "good vintage", and the taste must be different. For example, French wines are priced by the day, and the year of grapes is related to the rainfall before the harvest of grapes that year. If there is too much rain, the wine will become weak. For example, 199 1 and 1992, it rains continuously in Bordeaux. As a result, the grapes in these two years are not sweet enough and the skin is thin. After brewing, the tannin content is obviously insufficient and the taste is poor. This is why gourmets often use chronologies to compare and choose wines. Look at the producing areas and large producing areas, first look at whether it is new world wine or old world wine. Old world wines in Europe generally taste more complex and elegant, while new world wines taste more lively and pleasant. It's hard to say who is better, depending on personal taste preferences; Then look at the place of origin. Every wine producing country has different producing areas, and their styles and qualities are different. For example, Bordeaux and Burgundy in France are completely different styles. For example, according to the sugar content of wine, it can be divided into dry type, semi-dry type, semi-sweet type and sweet type. Dry wine doesn't feel sweet and sour; Semi-dry wine has a slightly sweet feeling when drunk; Semi-sweet wine tastes sweet and refreshing; Sweet wine tastes obviously sweet and slightly drunk. Looking at the appearance, most of the appearance of wine should be clear, transparent and shiny, and its color is consistent with the name of the wine. Watching red wine flow from the top of the glass on a white background is not cloudy. Look at the speed at which the wine flows evenly from the glass wall. The slower the flow, the better the quality of the wine. Tilt the side of the glass at 45 degrees and observe a layer of water at the junction of red wine and glass wall. The wider, the higher the alcohol content. Different colors can appear at the junction of water body and wine body, indicating the year of wine. Blue and lavender are three to five years old. Red bricks have a history of 5 to 6 years. Amber is 8 to 10 years. Orange means it has expired. Only by looking at the aroma and taste until the real entrance can we feel the texture, taste and level of red wine. If you leave high-quality red wine in your mouth, you should have a smooth feeling, slowly feel its mellow, and then the taste will be enriched; The aroma of wine will make you aftertaste endlessly, and it will not be scattered in your mouth for a long time. At the same time, these scents should be balanced, harmonious, elegant and pleasant. The taste of such wine should also be comfortable and pleasant, and all kinds of flavors are delicate.

Enjoy appreciation in the taste culture. Not all red wine is worth investing in. Before you know about wine investment, you must understand a concept. There are not many red wines worth collecting and investing. Most dividend wines cannot be stored for a long time, so they must be drunk within 2-5 years after listing. Only 0. 1% of the total red wine has the potential to be stored for more than 10 years. These wines need to be carefully treated in an environment with proper temperature and humidity control. Good wine needs good grapes and good vintage, so investing in red wine depends first on the place of origin. The most famous is Bordeaux wine in France. Lafite, Latour, Margaux, Mouton and Obiang are also called the five famous Bordeaux villages. The five famous wineries are all on the left bank, while Li Peng and Bai Cuizhuang on the right bank are also world-famous wineries. A few top wines from Italy, Australia and Spain can be included in the list of investment-grade wines. Investment-grade wine refers to wine with better quality after long-term storage in bottles, so the value of wine increases with the increase of years. In addition, these wines are becoming more and more precious because of continuous consumption. Judging from the history of wine collection, less than 100 kinds can become investment-grade wines. These top wines are usually produced in small quantities and in great demand, so they will be sold later, which will reduce the alcohol content of the listed wines and attract people to buy them first.
