"Life with a Glass of Wine": Wine is like life, and

red wine is the general name for wine. The mention of red wine will be associated with the word "romantic", especially between couples, red wine is more emotional in the hazy night. I recently watched "Life with a Glass of Wine", an American film written and directed by Alexander Payne, starring Paul Giamatti, Thomas Haden Church, Virginia Madsen, etc. Have a different passion for red wine.

Wine tasting is not more than wine

. Cao Cao once wrote in "Dan Ge Xing": When it comes to wine, what is life like? It can be seen that there is a very close relationship between wine and life. Poets in ancient times often used wine to boost their writings, and timid scholars often used wine to boost their courage to express their heartfelt feelings to girls of their hearts. Today’s politicians and business circles often use wine as a medium to increase officials and promotions. Business is booming, young people Even when a person is sad and sad, he will use alcohol to relieve his sorrow... In short, when life is proud, wine meets a confidant with a thousand cups of youth; when life is at a low point, wine does not Drunk people get drunk.

Life is different, wine tastes different. Wine is like life, and the taste is in it. In fact, the real expert is not how much wine you can drink at the wine table, nor how many people you can win when you are punching, but you can taste the raw materials and production year of the wine with one sip. "Life with a Glass of Wine" is a good wine tasting movie.

"Wine tasting is not about wine, it depends on the important news." Just like the hero in the film: "Shake the wine glass and observe the wine feet slowly flowing down; then tilt the glass 45 degrees to observe the color of the wine and the edge of the liquid surface. It is to judge the maturity of the wine. After shaking the wine, put your nose into the glass and inhale deeply for at least 2 seconds, repeating this action to distinguish various smells.”

After watching and smelling it, I started to taste it. Take a sip during wine tasting and use a half-gargle to allow the wine to fully mix with the air in your mouth and touch all parts of your mouth; when you capture the fascinating aroma of red wine, the wine is in your mouth. Smooth and tight like pearls, or smooth and lingering like silk? At this time, the sweetness, acidity, roundness and maturity of the wine can be summarized and analyzed. Finally, swallow the wine and feel the finish and aftertaste of the wine.

Wine-flavored life requires finesse

The color of red wines gradually fades over time, from deep red to purplish when young, then gradually to full red or cherry red, then to reddish orange or brick red, and finally to reddish-brown. White wine is colorless when it is young, but as it ages, the color will gradually change from light yellow with greenish reflections; to mature straw color, golden yellow, and finally golden copper. If it turns golden and bronze, it means that it is too old to drink.

The changes in the color of these red wines are not like life? We go from wow to the hair, from yellow to white and fall off, and the elastic and smooth skin begins to wrinkle, indicating that our life is coming to an end. When you think about it, you will clearly see your drinking life:

the happy birthday wishes of your classmates at school, the boring wine drinking alone after a lovelorn, the rhetoric at the graduation party, and the unsatisfactory work. I borrowed wine to relieve my worries, in order to win the order to accompany the laugh and drink with the flattery, the leader's hypocritical comments on your toast at the end of the year dinner (saying hello but never taking the initiative to give you a salary increase), those gangsters at the class reunion The helplessness and loss between the good and the bad...

If you succeed, someone will send you a good cigarette and a good wine, otherwise, you will have to worry about what wine to send all day long before they will help you. Wine is like life, and the taste is in it. When tasting wine, the taste should be changed from light to heavy, so that the taste of the next wine will not be destroyed by the strong taste of the previous wine, but is it not like this in life? Experience The more, the more suffering, and the more interesting stories you can tell your grandchildren when you are old. (Text/Chang Youcai)
