Luo Fei does not belong to any sect in the world, he is just an idler who likes red wine and wanders around.

On this day, in one of the magnificent halls of a five-star hotel, a world-class blind wine tasting competition was being held.

The so-called blind tasting (Blind Tasting), to put it simply, means that you do not know the information about a wine in advance, such as the origin, variety, year and other information, and you can identify it just by tasting it!

There are five contestants at the competition site. Each contestant sits alone in front of a table. There are 5 ISO red wine glasses on the table.

This is an international standard wine glass commonly used in the wine industry around the world. The shape of the cup is similar to a budding tulip.

Its main feature is to be objective and fair, and it will not highlight any characteristics of the wine, including advantages and disadvantages. It will directly present the original flavor of the wine. The amount poured into each wine glass during the competition must be consistent to reflect fairness.

There is a small rostrum in front of the five contestants. There are 5 bottles of wine on the table of the rostrum, which are covered with professional blind tasting wine bags. The contestants can neither see the wine labels, bottle shapes, nor corks, etc.

Clues that reveal information about wine.

The contestants must judge the variety, country of origin, and production area of ​​the wine simply by watching and tasting the color, aroma, and taste of the wine without any obvious clues. This world elite competition is even more perverted.

You must guess the winery and year through a blind tasting of the wine.

For example, guessing that a certain wine is the 1982 Lafite.

Luo Fei is sitting on stage 1. On stage 2 is a sexy and hot beauty, wearing a white backless chiffon suspender skirt, with a snow-white slender neck, slender thighs, and a touch of snow-white on her chest that is even more special.

Eye-catching.

What doesn't match her hot figure is her frosty expression, with her smooth and fair face exuding sharp edges and coldness.

The game hadn't started yet. Luo Fei was bored and turned his head to look at beauty No. 2.

Luo Fei smiled and winked at the beauty, thinking he was saying hello. Unexpectedly, the beauty looked serious, expressionless, and showed no reaction. Looking at Luo Fei was like looking at a dead object. Luo Fei suddenly felt the air.

It was almost frozen, and I couldn't help but mutter: "Leng Meiren."

On stage 3 is a man with a pipe in his mouth and a shiny head.

, an old man without a single hair.

He was wearing a loose linen Chinese-style gown, had a goatee, and had small eyes. He was stroking his beard at the moment, with a smile on his face, and his two small eyes could see through the treachery of the world.

On Channel 4, there was a middle-aged man with a big belly and dressed like a rich man. A gold chain as thick as a hemp rope hung around his neck. The gold was shining straight into his eyes, and he looked both rude and fierce.

On Channel 5 was a gentle young man wearing square-rimmed glasses. He was sitting neatly, motionless, and looked very quiet.

At this time, a very gentlemanly old man wearing a crisp suit walked up to everyone. He was Qi Haotian, the chairman of the jury for this competition.

He looked around the audience solemnly, nodded slightly, and then read loudly, his tone low but with unquestionable authority: "I declare that the fifth World Worship Wine Elite Blind Tasting Competition has officially begun."

The competition time is 120 minutes, and the time for tasting and judging each wine is 20 minutes, with a 5-minute break in between.

Luo Fei took his time and moved his hair with his hands, then looked at the other contestants around him. Finally, his eyes rested on the chest of the cold beauty on stage 2 on his left.

His eyeballs.

Feeling the fiery and rude eyes from the side, Leng Meiren felt a little sullen? She snorted heavily.

Luo Fei smiled slightly, turned his head with satisfaction, and began to pick up the cup in front of him.

He tilted the cup slightly at 45 degrees, and started to observe the color of the red wine in the cup against the background of the white tablecloth. He found that the middle of the red wine was dark red, almost black, but the edges began to gradually fade to a slightly brick red color.

He brought the glass to his nose, held it still, took a slow breath, and smelled deeply, then began to shake the glass rhythmically. As the glass shook, the aroma slowly seeped out.

Looking at the sloshing wine and smelling the familiar aroma, Luo Fei's thoughts seemed to go back to his childhood.

It was a time when the memory was a little blurry. He was about six years old or older. Luo Fei only remembered that he lived with an old man with white hair. As for other relatives, he seemed to have no memory at all.

In his memory, the old man woke him up early in the morning and took him into a very large forest.

Then let him get close to various plants and fruits, ask him to try hard to smell the smell of these plants and fruits, and ask him to write it down, otherwise he will have his palms slapped.

The cold ruler hit the tender palm of little Luo Fei, who was over six years old. Little Luo Fei felt the pain and could only drill it into his heart. However, the old man stared at him seriously to prevent him from crying. He could only let the tears flow down his cheeks.

The water flowed down, but I didn't dare to make a sound.

As the days passed, he became more and more familiar with the fragrance of nature, until he could call out the name of a certain plant even with his eyes closed when he got close to it.

The number of times I was hit on my palms became less and less.

My mind turned back to the competition scene, and my nose picked up the familiar scent of black currant, black plum, cherry, cedar, white truffle, coffee, smoke, baking spices, thyme, rosemary...

Luo Fei has a special talent. He can capture the connection between a wine and the land where it is grown from the aroma of the wine, feel the smell of the land, and thus accurately judge its production area and characteristics.

Luo Fei narrowed his eyes slightly, condensed his dantian, and gathered his mind. Through the faint fragrance emanating from the wine glass, he focused on capturing the faint smell of the earth inside, and then began to use his unique olfactory function, like a bouquet of boundless scent.

It spreads around like tentacles.

A map of the world emerged in his mind, with lush grapevines, steep slopes, and vineyards covered with various stones.

From the southern hemisphere to the northern hemisphere, across the equator, back and forth, Luo Fei's thinking tentacles finally stopped at a place, steep and rocky, with clouds and cold air passing through from south to north, reddish-brown volcanic geology...

Luo Fei opened his eyes and smiled. This is it, Stag’s Leap District, located in the Stag’s Leap District of Napa Valley, California’s wine mecca.

At this time, Luo Fei felt that all the clues to this wine were gradually becoming clearer.

To the east of the Stags Leap production area, the soil at the bottom of the cliff slopes is dominated by volcanic soil, which produces strong, compact and complex wines.

To the west of the Lu Leap production area, alluvial soil is dominant, and the wine produced is soft and fragrant.

This wine seems to take the best of both worlds, combining fire and water, with a soft taste and hidden strength.
