法国葡萄酒品酒入门:外国人常说的“legs”是啥意思?

from 一席英语·脱口秀:老外来了

主播:Wendi(中国)+ Maelle(法国) 音乐:Les Champs-elysees法国文化丰富多样,今天我们就来聊一聊其中的品酒文化,看一看法国人是怎样有仪式感地品酒的呢?01. What Is Wine Tasting? 什么是品酒?Wine tasting(品酒)其实不止是喝酒,在这个过程中还要去观察(look)、去闻(smell)、去品尝(taste),要动用你的多个感官去体会酒整体的感觉。通常,法国人会从以下几个方面来品酒:1) Appearance (外观): the color, clarity (清澈度), and “legs” (挂杯现象)Legs: the path of the wine as it glides (滑/流下) on the glass, 即酒沿着杯壁流下的痕迹。2) Aroma (香气): what you smell3) Taste (口感): the flavors on your tongue4) Finish (余味): how long the taste stays in your mouth after swallowing (咽下)喝下一口酒后,味道在口中停留的时间长短。所以品酒不是“一口闷”,而是要慢慢“读懂”这杯酒。02. 描述葡萄酒口感的关键词 Key Words to Describe the Taste of Wine1) Dry (干型): not sweet, 酒的甜度较低2) Fruity (果香型): has notes of fruit (果味的香调), like berries (浆果) or citrus (柑橘)3) Bold (浓郁型): full of flavor4) Tannins (单宁): dry, slightly bitter feeling (口干、微涩的感觉) in your mouth5) Acidity (酸度): give the wine freshness (清新感) or sharpness (刺激感)03. Two Common Types of Wine 两种常见的葡萄酒种类We have many different types (种类繁多) of wines,今天我们重点介绍两种最常见的(most common types):红葡萄酒(red wine)和白葡萄酒(white wine)。红葡萄酒(Red Wine)1) Cabernet Sauvignon (赤霞珠): strong, full-bodied口感浓烈,适合搭配牛排(steak)2) Merlot (梅洛): softer, rounder, easier to drink口感柔和、顺滑,易于入口3) Pinot Noir (黑皮诺): lighter, elegant, a bit earthy酒体轻盈,优雅细腻,带有一丝自然风味。白葡萄酒(White Wine)1) Chardonnay (霞多丽): creamy, buttery, or citrusy depending on where it’s from根据不同产地,可能带有奶油、黄油或柑橘风味。2) Sauvignon Blanc (长相思): very fresh, grassy, high in acidity清新爽口,酸度较高,常带有青草或柠檬香气。新手推荐:建议从红葡萄酒梅洛(Merlot)或白葡萄酒长相思(Sauvignon Blanc)开始尝试。They’re friendly, not too strong, and easy to enjoy with or without food.04. Five Steps of Tasting Wine 五步品酒法品酒其实有章可循,只需五个基本步骤:1) Look(看):看颜色、清澈度,不同颜色,比如deep red(深红色)、ruby(宝石红色)、golden(金黄色)等等,不同颜色代表不同的葡萄品种和年份。2) Swirl(摇):轻轻地转动酒杯,可以释放出更多香气(release aroma)。3) Smell(闻):Stick your nose in the glass! 将鼻子靠近杯口,尝试辨别果香、香料(spice)或木香等气息。4) Sip(尝):Take a small sip (小啜一口) and let it cover your whole tongue (让酒液覆盖整个舌头),感受其口感与结构。5) Reflect(回味):Is it sweet? Acidic? Smooth? Does the taste stay or disappear quickly? 可以回味一下酒的甜度、酸度,以及它的余味是否悠长。以前可能从未留意过葡萄酒的风味(taste)和质地(texture),但一旦开始关注(once paying attention),葡萄酒就不再只是一种饮品,而成为一种体验(experience)。05. Wine Culture in France vs. China 中法葡萄酒文化差异In France, wine is part of their daily life. It doesn’t always appear in fancy occasions (不总是在高大上的场合). 人们会在午餐、晚餐或与朋友小聚时随意地(casually)喝上一杯。人们会搭配或是选择符合心境和氛围(fits the mood)的酒——重要的是匹配。It’s about matching.而在中国,葡萄酒一般会出现在具有“仪式感”的场合,并且选酒时价格也常常成为重要标准。品酒不一定是一项“fancy”的活动,而是一个可以慢慢学习、慢慢享受的过程。不论是在法国的葡萄园还是在北京的晚餐桌上,wine is really about slowing down and paying attention to the moment (专注于当下的体验)。下次当你端起一杯葡萄酒时,记得:swirl, sniff, and sip with confidence!(摇晃、轻嗅、然后自信地品尝!)欢迎在评论区留言分享:Which wine would you most like to try?你最想尝试哪一款葡萄酒呢?
