"Have you packed up? Just in time, I've prepared the dishes, let's eat some first. That's all. The guy next door blackmailed me into a bottle of Mouton. That guy from Bo Yan is too dark!"
Han Yifan complained, but he poured the wine steadily for Shang Feier.
Shang Feier hesitated a little: "This... the heat is too high."
"Take a small taste. I see you didn't eat much for lunch. This is M9 Wagyu beef, the quality is very good. But the most important thing is that it is paired with 2000-year-old Romanée-Conti. The wine I have here has constant temperature and humidity. This was taken in France that year, there are only six bottles in total, please try it."
If you don’t want to let go of your children, you won’t be able to ensnare the wolf. Romanée-Conti is the top red wine. The year 2000 is also known as the New Year. The quality of wine depends on the year, such as the "82-year-old Lafite" in many memes. 1982 was a very good year. After 20 years of aging, it has brought out its best flavor.
Even if Shang Feier is not that proficient in red wine, it is indeed rare to hear the name. She hesitated and sat down. The worst thing is to eat and drink less later.
Seeing her sit down, Han Yifan knew that there was going to be something going on tonight. The appetizer was served first, small octopus with seaweed, and Riesling was poured. Sweet white wine is slightly sour and sweet, with the flavor of tropical fruits. It is appetizing and refreshing when paired with small side dishes. Next came the ham and honeydew melon. Han Yifan changed the wine glass, added some ice cubes, and poured some sherry. This sherry, which turns amber in color after aging, is a fortified white wine with a powerful flavor that pairs well with ham and melon.
Shang Feier usually drinks a little wine when socializing, but for business banquets outside, she will never choose and pour wine for her in such a detailed way as Han Yifan did.
Moreover, wine has a light taste, with more sweet and sour taste than white wine, and the alcohol content is not that high. Unknowingly, I drank more wine without realizing it.
Next is foie gras and caviar, which is also paired with wine. In fact, foie gras is basically made of fat. Shang Fei'er rarely touches this high-calorie food, but because it tastes so good, Han Yifan only cut a small piece and fried it. She unknowingly paired it with wine. Eat them all.
The main course was M9 steak. Han Yifan also said: "I don't know how cooked you like it, so I made it medium-rare and served it. If you don't like it, I will open the fire again and make it fully cooked for you." "
"No need." Han Yifan was really attentive. The steak was not particularly big. He also used the oil used to fry steak and foie gras to fry the asparagus a little and put it aside for garnishing.
The medium-rare steak is charred on the outside but still tender on the inside. When touched with a knife and fork, the inside is overflowing with juice. The best steak does not need to be marinated too much, just a little salt and black pepper, it is delicious enough. The aroma of milk is accompanied by the aroma of meat, and it melts in your mouth when you chew it. When you feel a little tired, the highlight comes - the 20-year-old Romanée-Conti, with a strong backbone and rich layers. Before you drink it, it has a rich fruity aroma. The aroma of wood and barrels hits your nose. It is slightly sour in the mouth, followed by a rich and layered taste, with a slightly sweet aftertaste.
After I swallowed it all, the aroma of wine was still lingering in my mouth.
It is true that only top foodies and sufficient knowledge of wine can pair it so seamlessly. Unconsciously, I drank a lot from a bottle of red wine.
