hello my name is alexey then
boyacs
For 20 years now I’ve been working in a restaurant
business is engaged in promotion and
alcohol trade with wine went from
bartenders to the manager themselves
restaurant has created its own business
based on and my wine culture
professional skills allow me
notice the following things
then that many of us refers to wine
or too simplistic as well as to alcohol
either too hard, for example, what
wine can only be dealt with by experts
physicist by education
however I conceive formulas formula
The taste of wine for me is mine
personally from three factors out of three
characteristics and
with these characteristics all the time
there are some incidents and
for example, one of them
staff of one of the local institutions for
which I created a wine card
please me one time but beautiful
white wine from the grape variety Sauvignon
blanc sour bitter she does not like
guests let’s clean it completely I do not
could just believe it because
perfectly know the wine and asked me
submit to and wine
got a wine at room temperature and here
in such
The glass is worse with the same
wine like you are my friend
I’m going to do another
offer your hands and heart to your lady
called me and said only I recommend
please the wine introduced
the next day a friend called me down
I’m just a flurry of criticism
I calmly listened to him about the fact that
wreaths merged upset lady not
I liked quite the fact that he
distressed
asked him two questions
Wine cooled and in what glass served and
in this case the wine was not chilled and
as it turned out to be served wine here
in a glass that got him a whole
service as a trophy after a divorce
this trophy was donated to my mother-in-law
he was almost told my friend and here you
too, drink blood here, look at two
cases of completely different characters
but the situation of the 1st floor would have my
heroes at least some basic
knowledge of wine or its presentation
probably all would have happened perfectly
in a different way, but unfortunately such knowledge
us in the region but it’s a sin to conceal in general
maybe even in the country they are not
are basic why, because
we have not developed a centuries-old culture
wine wreath came to us with the christening of Russia
as part of the divine service as a symbol of blood
Lord we look further on the age of Petra
wine came to us already as part of the secular
culture young king
changed me all changed the worldview
nobles led the European culture
a step further 19 centuries well in the 19th century
nobles already in principle had a culture
on gastronomia they clearly pony
Ali as we can mix wine with food
the combination was naturally oriented
a little bit on French culture and
even sometimes it is influenced
famous famous king case
Alexander the second in 1887 visited
paris where he himself was committed
The second attempt was only seven czars
survived in honor of this event decided
to roll the supper of the three emperors
Alexandra 2 feared that the terrorists
all the same yes they do their dirty work and
on this is not done yet another
assassination attempt
at the same time with all the hidden explosives in
a bottle of champagne the fact
that the bottles of champagne
time was made of thick dark
glass
so it was quite possible
alexander second feared that’s what
done
The ingenious winemakers from the roger’s house
do not miss this here this order
they turned to the Flemish glass house
which in turn, at their request
made a bottle of the same shape but only
clear glass of champagne from
transparent bottle with clear glass
was thus served in the light
the famous champagne appeared today
all over the world which is called a crystal
and the history of this testifies
Russian double-headed coat of arms
an eagle that is still present on
bottle
the twentieth century well, the world view of wine
here it changes probably drastically
insofar as part of the nobility died
a part of noblemen grir oval gentry
who emigrated well some of them
for the world so say winemaking
probably played a very large role
a striking example of this is the Andrew Chelishchev
it’s a man who ‘s time is very
worked for a long time and taxes in France and
In 1938 he was invited to California and
actually this person is a legend
Californian wine making.
yes, it’s a man-legend
at all
world winemaking because it is recognized
world-wide
but what is left for us here is the Soviet Union
already a long time ago we have not been for 30 years with
you live in a completely different country
believe me for today market
the wine is quite varied
huge we can try wine with you
new light of old world wine
legendary from some young
manufacturers of different countries and are ready
we will take them and even more so
hear or we will destroy their claws
heroes of my stories but they would know
just a simple formula
taste of wine
taste of wine schematically denote this
bottle up to equal grape variety
plus temperature of wine supply
plus the right glass
Well, now I’ll explain to you back to
Sauvignon Blanc Sauvignon Blanc from the homeland and
llora valley
this is the north of France which means the northern
ripening little sun small
amount of sugar in the berry
as a rule of such grape varieties
more acid wines are produced in this process.
with all the alcohol content
less small we go further than temperatures
temperature is very important
The temperature of white wine supply is somewhere
from eight to twelve degrees
celsius
which allows us to make the temperature a
allows us to reduce the acidity of
This with all we can with you
the right temperature to enjoy
the freshness of northern wines
schematically I will designate the language and apply
now there are areas that are very sensitive
respond to taste stimuli
the tip of the tongue responds to perception
sweet opposite part of the tongue
closer to the larynx
bitter
the lateral walls of the tongue, let us denote them
this way it reacts to
sour on the surface of the tongue here are these
lateral walls they react to
Salty and own language center here
a small area it reacts practically
at all for a little bit
but salty as a characteristic to wine we
do not include but all the other three we
We can take it back so we’ll return to the glass I
same said that a physicist by education
so for me here is this vessel that
has a certain geometric shape
allowing us to direct the flow of fluid
in the mouth in such a way that this flow
I passed and passed exactly in the center of the language in
stomach passing through zones responding
for acid is this knowledge of glasses on
In fact, they were developed in
sixties seventies
famous company riedel which by
this day
produces glasses to produce decanters and
various attributes in order to
an uninitiated person could enjoy
the taste of wine
so I know this formula is not
