Chapter 1358 A Wine Cellar with Rich Connotations

Just when Yin Ya sighed inwardly and looked directly at the red wines to make a choice, Yuan Zhou spoke again.

Because the expression on Yin Ya's face was so obvious, Yuan Zhou could understand it at a glance. He understood the disappointment on Yin Ya's face after he didn't recommend her.

When Yuan Zhou spoke, Yin Ya was staring at a bottle of dry red wine.

"Were you used to drinking dry red wine?" Yuan Zhou asked seriously.

And Yin Ya also habitually replied: "Fortunately, I drink some sometimes."

"So are you used to the bitter taste of dry red wine?" Yuan Zhou continued to ask.

"I don't like it a bit, but it's okay." Yin Ya frowned and said.

"The red wine here is divided into dry, semi-sweet and sweet types, which basically cover the taste of all wines. It all depends on your taste, and dry red wine belongs to the dry type." Yuan Zhoudao.

"Hmm, but actually I feel like I can't tell much difference." Yin Ya raised her head and said with some annoyance and uneasiness.

"In fact, our sensitivity to wine basically comes from innate genetics, so many tasters are born with a high sensitivity to wine, and this research comes from the Department of Food Science at Penn State University and Brooke The university's PROP sensitivity test has been published, so it is normal for the product not to come out." It was rare for Yuan Zhou to say so many words at once.

"And PROP sensitivity is determined by the TAS2R38 gene. Only about 25% of people taste the bitter taste of PROP, and only 10% are men, so it is normal." Yuan Zhou said seriously and seriously.

Yin Ya, on the other hand, looked at Yuan Zhou who was talking endlessly and said nothing.

Yuan Zhou turned his head and looked at Yin Ya. After seeing that the annoyance and anxiety on her face were not so obvious, he swallowed his words about the second half of the experiment.

Yes, this experiment actually has a second half conclusion, that is, this PROP sensitivity can only taste bitterness, so it is not completely accurate, and there are many wine experts who are not PROP taste sensitive, but they still have a taste for wine. Very sensitive to the taste.

Of course, looking at Yin Ya's current appearance, she shouldn't need to know about the second half of the experiment.

"Shouldn't girls be admired by the popular science boss?" Yuanzhou muttered in his heart. He glanced at Yin Ya secretly and found that there was no expression of admiration on her face.

"Well, what kind of red wine do you think I should drink?" Yin Ya looked at Yuan Zhou curiously and asked.

Yuan Zhou tilted his head uncomfortably under Yin Ya's burning gaze, and then continued to speak: "White wine has a richer fruity aroma."

When he said this, Yuan Zhou stretched out his hand and motioned Yin Ya to look at the white wine area over there.

Those white grapes are said to be white, but in the bottle they have a golden-white, transparent and lively feel, which is very beautiful.

"This feels good." Yin Ya nodded.

"If you like white wine, you can choose this one. The wine produced by this wine has a refreshing smell, a rich aroma, and a long aftertaste. It contains a variety of vitamins and is rich in nutrients. Its taste is delicate and round, and it can relax muscles, activate blood circulation, and nourish the skin. , The effect of moisturizing the lungs." Yuanzhou thought seriously, and then pointed to a bottle of white wine with a dark bottle.

"Yeah, it feels very good." Yin Ya nodded repeatedly, but it was obvious on her face that she wanted to hear more about red wine.

"Actually, the bitter taste in dry red wine that you don't like is tannin, and tannin is the anti-oxidation and anti-aging element." Yuan Zhou glanced at Yin Ya's delicate and white cheeks, and then said.

"I see." Yin Ya had a taught expression on her face, even though she actually knew this.

Yes, although Yin Ya doesn't understand red wine, she does know simple knowledge. On the one hand, this knowledge comes from work, and on the other hand, it comes from last night's bad tonic.

It was really a bad supplement. I didn’t go to bed until four in the morning. I didn’t study so hard for the senior year exam.

After all, she is coming to Yuanzhou for a drink today. If she knows nothing about it, Yin Ya is worried that it will leave a bad impression on Yuanzhou.

But now it seems that knowing nothing is a good thing.

Because this was the first time Yin Ya had such a conversation with Yuan Zhou, she saw that when Yuan Zhou said this, he explained with confidence, and the key point was that he was not impatient at all, which was very attractive.

"Yuan Zhou is really amazing. Even this kind of wine-making knowledge that is only related to cooking skills is a treasure trove." Yin Ya felt a little admiration in her heart.

Although the things Yuan Zhou explained just now may require a little more effort and can be found in books and on the Internet, when they come out of Yuan Zhou's mouth, it feels like they belong to him.

This is real learning, not just ordinary understanding.

"Maybe I can really try the translation of "Baconi's Law"." Yin Ya couldn't help but ponder.

Kenney Bai is a famous American judge. He wrote a book to help ordinary people understand the law. It can be said to be a classic among popular science books.

As the secretary to the president, Yin Ya is good at English, so she has been receiving small translation orders.

The collaborator felt that Yin Ya was very capable, so they invited her to translate "Baconi's Law", but Yin Ya has not yet agreed.

Firstly, I feel that I am not good at it. After all, this is such a professional legal science book. Secondly, I feel that I have no time.

Now think about it, no matter how busy he is, can Yuan Zhou be as busy as he is? As for professional orientation, any major can be learned, just like Yuan Zhou, from scratch.

People don't need reasons to become better, but they need opportunities. It can be said that Yuan Zhou's behavior today is Yin Ya's opportunity.

"Semi-dry white or rosé wine has a sweeter taste. If you like it, these wines taste very good." Yuan Zhou once again pointed out several wines with beautiful packaging colors.

Yin Ya came back to her senses and pointed to the rosé wine: "The colors do look beautiful, especially this color."

"Well, the taste of this wine is relatively refreshing." Yuan Zhou said casually.

After a brief introduction, Yin Ya walked around the shelves of bottled wines, as if it was difficult to make a decision.

Most girls have difficulty in choosing, and Yin Ya is no exception. Although some people say that the difficulty in choosing is because they are poor, and if they have money, they can choose anything.

But in this situation, it's very difficult.

But Yuanzhou was not in a hurry and just watched Yin Ya choose quietly.

Yuan Zhou never lacks patience.

When Yin Ya was quietly choosing, she would look back at Yuan Zhou from time to time. When she looked at Yuan Zhou for the fifth time, Yuan Zhou finally understood that she wanted him to help make a decision.

“Actually, the grapes used in the red wine making here are all Pinot Noir. Pinot Noir was planted by the Gauls in Burgundy before the Roman rule, and later it gradually came to Alsace, Germany and even Spain. And grown in the coldest place in Oregon, USA." Yuan Zhou continued.

"So they're all the same variety of grapes? It's amazing that one variety can make so much wine." Yin Ya said in sincere admiration.

"This variety of grapes is just more troublesome to grow, but it tastes very good. The tannins it contains are fine, silky, and easy to melt, so you don't have to worry, this wine will not be bitter even if it is aged." Yuan Zhou Said seriously.

Yuan Zhou said it very lightly, but if a knowledgeable foreigner saw this wine cellar, they would be stunned.

The title of wine master will be hung on Yuan Zhou's head. Of course, that is a later story. There is only one guest in the wine cellar now.

"In that case, just bring me a bottle. I think the ones you chose must be delicious." Yin Ya looked at Yuan Zhou with trust, but when she looked at Yuan Zhou, she realized what she had just said Too coquettishly, he quickly added: "Because this red wine belongs to you, and you also know a lot, there must be no problem."

Yin Ya curled her hair around her ears uneasily, talking to the right person, her words and deeds could make her heart beat faster.

Yuanzhou lived up to expectations and directly chose red wine. He stood there and thought for about a second, then went straight to a bottle of wine.

“Today’s weather is nice and sunny, and this wine is fruity and full of cranberry, pomegranate and dark cherry flavors. When you drink it now, the taste left in your mouth will still have some faint animal and truffle aromas. , as well as the aroma of licorice and other spices, you should be able to accept it."

"Well, then choose this bottle." Yin Ya nodded without hesitation.
