In recent years, red wine has attracted more and more people's attention and love. However, because China is still an emerging market, people still know little about wine. In addition, various brands in the market are mixed and the quality is mixed. Here are some precautions for buying red wine.
First, the varieties of red wine
1. Cabernet Sauvignon. Eurasian species, native to France, 1892 was introduced from western Europe to Yantai, Shandong. The red wine is ruby red, mellow and harmonious, full-bodied, typical, fragrant with grass and green pepper, and has a long aftertaste. It is one of the important and precious varieties of dry red wine in the world.
2. Snake Dragon Ball. Eurasian species, native to France, 1892 was introduced from western Europe to Yantai, Shandong Province, and has also been planted in Changli, Hebei Province in recent years. It is the sister line of Cabernet Sauvignon, and the dry red wine brewed is rich in aroma, strong, plump and full of vitality.
3. Other varieties. Grape varieties such as Merlot, Camry, Syrah, Blue France and Carignan are also suitable for making red wine.
Second, buy more famous brands
Brands with a certain brewing history, such as Changyu and Helan Mountain. Because the grapes produced by a vine after many years of planting can be used to make wine, and the older the tree, the better the quality of the wine, so it is difficult for newer brands to make quality red wine. Not to mention that some unscrupulous manufacturers buy from other places and then blend.
Third, if you buy imported wine, you should never be superstitious about French wine.
The annual output of wine from French wineries, especially Bordeaux red wine, is quite low, so high-quality wine is very expensive, and you can't buy a bottle or a cup for tens of dollars. Some of the French wines that are cheap online are blended and some are domestic, even if they are really French, they are not drunk at all, and the quality is not as good as domestic wines. Therefore, novices are advised not to choose French wine.
Fourth, observe the color of wine
The whole body is clear and transparent, showing deep ruby red, and it is good wine without precipitation and turbidity; If the color is dark and there is no luster and brightness, it means that there is something wrong with the quality of the wine, and consumers should buy it carefully.
5. Choose the wine type according to your own hobbies.
Wine can be divided into sweet, semi-sweet, dry and semi-dry types according to its sugar content, and red, white and pink according to its color. High-grade red wine, with clear and transparent body, luster, pleasant fragrance, soft taste and long aftertaste, is generally dry red wine with an alcohol content of 1 1~ 12 degrees. High-grade white wine is generally yellowish with green, clear and transparent, shiny, fruity and mellow, and the alcohol content is generally around 12 degrees.
