Chapter 184 Wine Tasting Showdown
Li Mu took the glass of wine with a smile, sniffed it gently at the tip of his nose, and then took a sip.
"How about it, is there any brand of drink it?" Lin Ke looked at Li Mu nervously, and Xiao Shan Mixiang's little face also looked very solemn.
"It's a bit wrong to say it's a brand. I think Qiu Ran has been emphasizing that asking what brand it is, just a small misleading." Li Mu did not say what brand it was, but said lightly.
Lin Ke was slightly stunned: "If you don't talk about the brand, what should you say?"
"It should be said that it is a manor. This red wine has no name. The wine itself is named after the manor. Qiu Da Gourmet, I wonder if what I said is right?" Li Mu looked at Qiu Ran and said.
"Then you should know what the name of the manor is, right?" Qiu Ran laughed coldly.
Li Mu smiled: "When it comes to Bordeaux, France, there are many famous wineries. Everyone should know that the golden wineries in the wine were once popular in the upper class of France and Britain. When Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom got engaged, Bai Cui was the engagement wine at that time. The Kennedy family also had a special liking for Bai Cui. Many people know that Rafi is very expensive, but if it compares the price, Rafi can only be considered a bargain compared to Bai Cui. After all, Bai Cui is one of the wineries that pays the most attention to quality. One year, it was even stopped due to grape problems, which is not comparable to other wineries."
"What do you mean is that this wine comes from Baicui Winery?" Qiu Ran asked calmly.
"If it comes from Baicui Winery, it is too easy to drink this wine. As long as you are a real professional taster, there is no reason why you can't drink Baicui." Li Mu said lightly.
"You said it for a long time, but you can't even say what the name of the wine is." Qiu Ran sneered.
"Bai Cui was first acquired by Mrs. Longba from the Arnold family, and since then it has become the ranks of top red wines. However, Mrs. Longba's heirs are not capable enough. In the end, Bai Cuicui fell into the Moel family. This wine comes from another manor owned by the Moel family. I know less about this manor in China, but Bai Cuihua Manor is also quite famous locally. It can taste red wine similar to the famous Botus Winery at a very affordable price. It is quite popular. I wonder if what I am right?" Li Mu looked at Qiu Ran and said.
"It's not bad. You can drink this wine from Bai Cuihua Manor, but don't forget, you have to tell what year the wine is produced." Qiu Ran frowned slightly. He didn't have the cooking time. Li Mu could really drink this wine's origin, but if he just drank the origin, this would not hurt him. It mainly depends on the year.
Lin Ke and Zhou Qin both looked at Li Mu. It was extremely difficult to drink wine from what year it was. What's more, this wine produced from Bai Cuihua Manor is not popular in China.
"This is the new wine this year." Li Mu said with a smile.
"Are you sure?" Qiu Ran smiled.
"Of course." Li Mu said affirmatively.
Seeing that Li Mu had no hesitation at all, Qiu Ran had to put away his smile and said with a cold face: "You are lucky. If this is not the new wine this year, you can't guess it."
"Whether I'm lucky or not, you lost, aren't you?" Li Mu smiled.
"Hmph." Qiu Ran snorted coldly and turned away. He felt a little lost. He kept asking about the vintage issue. He wanted to disturb Li Mu's judgment, making him unexpected that this was the new wine this year. Moreover, the new wine had just come out, and no one had tried the taste, so it was even more difficult to judge it.
"It's really wonderful. I didn't expect that Li Mu, you are so good at red wine. This wine was given to me by a friend who works in Bai Cuihua. You can even drink it. I really admire you." Li Yang, who had been paying attention to this matter, came over and looked at Li Mu in surprise and said.
"I have no other advantages, I just like to eat and drink." Li Mu smiled.
Qiu Ran, who had not yet walked away, couldn't help but say sarcastically when he heard Li Yang's words: "I thought you were really capable. It turned out that you set up a trap for me to drill. The food industry in S City is just like this."
Qiu Ran thought it was a conspiracy that Li Yang and Li Mu colluded with each other. Li Mu had known the name and year of the wine for a long time, so he could tell that Li Mu and Li Yang were just deliberately making red to destroy his head.
"Don't talk nonsense. Li Mu drank the origin and year of the wine based on his own ability." Li Yang looked at Qiu Ran angrily and said.
"Is that so? If he really has the ability, will he dare to compete with me?" Qiu Ran said with a sneer.
"How else do you want to compare?" Li Mu had no intention of refusing. He just tasted the origin and year of this wine, but did not get the task completion of Xinba. It seems that the level of attention was not enough.
"It's very simple." Qiu Ran pointed to many kinds of red wines on the table and said: "One of us blindfolded her eyes, and the other one chose ten red wines for the other to taste. Whoever said the more right would win."
"You are really a little shameless. You have already lost just now. What qualifications are there to compare?" Lin Ke couldn't help but speak sarcastically.
Qiu Ran pretended not to hear it, looked at Li Mu and said, "Do you dare to compete with me?"
"I have no objection to it, but what are you comparing with me? You have lost just now and swear not to appear in front of me. Now you are still talking here. You, Qiu Da Gourmet, are just a fat person who breaks your promise." Li Mu said lightly.
Qiu Ran's face changed: "It was obviously your design just now that I was designed by me, of course I can't count it."
"Whether it's a calculation or not, if you lose, you Qiu Da Foodie don't even have this responsibility?" Li Mu sneered.
"After all, you just don't dare to compete with me. It's useless to say so much. Are you from S City only able to do these tricks?" Qiu Ran said sarcastically.
"It's okay to compare, but this time you have to place a heavy bet to be qualified to compete with me." Li Mu said.
"What do you want?" Qiu Ran frowned slightly.
"If you lose, don't let me see you again in S City." Li Mu said lightly.
Qiu Ran's expression changed: "Okay, it turns out that there was a conspiracy to drive me out of S City."
"Are you afraid?" Li Mu looked at Qiu Ran disdainfully.
"Will I be afraid of you?" Qiu Ran looked at Li Mu with contempt: "You are just an incompetent person who cheats. How could I be afraid of you? I compare with you. But for fairness, I will ask you to send you some wine. We choose wine at will, not limited to the wine here."
Qiu Ran was afraid that the wine here had been prepared long ago, so Li Mu was naturally effortless to get up, but he would suffer a great loss.
"It's up to you, but I'll listen to you in person. If you lose, you will disappear in S City from now on. Don't let me see you again." Li Mu said lightly.
"Okay, if I lose, leave S City immediately. What if you lose?" Qiu Ran looked at Li Mu and sneered.
"What do you want?" Li Mu asked.
"The same thing remains the same. If you lose, please invite them to have dinner with me." Qiu Ran pointed to Lin Ke and Zhou Qin and said.
"Would you like it?" Li Mu looked at Lin Ke and Zhou Qin with a smile.
"I have no problem if you don't have any problems." Zhou Qin had no intention of hesitation.
"I am willing to accompany the gentleman today." Lin Ke also thought today's things were very interesting. She was also a bold person. She was in S City. She was not afraid of what Qiu Ran could do. At worst, she could just have a meal.
"Okay, then that's it." Seeing that Zhou Qin and Lin Ke didn't respond, Li Mu agreed directly.
This time, the people in the entire venue were attracted by attention. This tasting meeting was originally prepared for Qiu Ran, but I didn't expect that before I started tasting the food, I started to dry it on the wine.
"Li Yang, is there no problem with Li Mu? How is his wine tasting skills?" Liu Yifeng and others pulled Li Yang into the corner and asked.
Of course they knew that Li Mu was a very powerful gourmet, but they didn't know how Li Mu's research on wine was. And who knew that Qiu Ran would ask someone to come back with some strange wine. If you choose wine casually, the scope was too large. Even the top taster did not dare to say that he could taste the wine from all over the world.
So Liu Yifeng and the others were also worried that if Li Mu had a chance to send out, his female companion would accompany Qiu Ran to have dinner, which would be a shame.
"I don't know much about this. Li Mu has very few opportunities to come to S City. Like you, I haven't drunk a few times with him. However, he can drink the new wine from Bai Cuihua Manor. His ability to taste wine should be very good, even if Qiu Ran uses some tricks." Li Yang didn't know what Li Mu's ability to taste wine is.
"Things have reached this point, and we can only hope that Li Mu's wine tasting skills are indeed very profound." Liu Yifeng said helplessly.
After a while, the person who was calling Qiu Ran finally came. He also brought nearly a hundred kinds of red wines of all sizes with a cart, which were pushed directly into the crowd.
"We can choose ten wines on this car and wines on the table to test each other at will. You should have no problem, right?" Qiu Ran said with a smile at Li Mu.
"Of course there is no problem." Li Mu said indifferently. For him, who has the super taste ability of a lemon, these are naturally not problems.
"Okay, open all these wines. After I win later, these wines will be regarded as celebration." Qiu Ran said to the waiter with a smile.
The waiter opened all the wine, Qiu Ran looked at Li Mu and said, "Do you taste it first or I taste it first?"
"You taste it first." Li Mu smiled.
"Okay." Qiu Ran didn't refuse, and borrowed a scarf to cover his eyes, and said to Li Mu confidently: "You can choose whatever you want."
