葡萄酒是一种交际饮品，在社交场合聚会时饮用。随着人们生活水平的逐步提高，葡萄酒也逐渐成为日常生活中享受生活乐趣、体验生活情调的重要“载体”。 今天，我们就来一起学习西方文化中的酒——【Wine葡萄酒】。 有关葡萄酒的关键词： Red wine——红葡萄酒：由红葡萄带皮浸渍发酵而成。葡萄酒是目前世界上产量最大、普及最广的单糖酿造酒。红葡萄酒由于色泽喜庆，更是人们喜欢的葡萄酒之一。 white wine——白葡萄酒：由葡萄汁发酵而成的。清澈透明，气味清爽，酒香浓郁，回味深长，含有多种维生素，营养丰富，具有舒筋、活血、养颜、润肺之功效。 Rose wine——桃红葡萄酒：它是被很多人忽视了的葡萄酒的一个小族群。桃红葡萄酒口味清爽、色泽亮丽，仅仅从感官上就能给人以时尚、亲切的气息。 Nutrition——营养：葡萄的营养很高，而以葡萄为原料的葡萄酒也蕴藏了多种氨基酸、矿物质和维生素，这些物质都是人体必须补充和吸收的营养品。目前，已知的葡萄酒中含有的对人体有益的成分大约就有600种。葡萄酒的营养价值由此也得到了广泛的认可。 【例句】 1. At her dinner table, men hang on her every word, and women echo her pearly laugh as she raises a wine glass in a toast. 餐桌旁,男人们抢着应和她说的每一句话;女人们则在她举起葡萄酒杯祝酒时,随她一起放声欢笑。 2. Other merchants say Bordeaux（n.波尔多葡萄酒） has so much stock (n.库存）that merchants are trying to move it on. 其它酒商表示,波尔多葡萄酒库存太多,酒商们正设法将其转手. 3. If you have to choose one bottle, make it a Bordeaux. 如果你只能收藏一瓶酒,一定要选法国波尔多。（波尔多红酒是亚洲葡萄酒市场的王中之王.） 品酒，其实很简单 Steps to taste wine 品酒的步骤 The three main categories which are to be examined during the wine tasting are appearance, its aroma, and the taste. It is important that you need to look into the wine, smell it and then in turn taste. 品酒的三个主要审查方面是要审查在品酒的外观，它的香气和口感。更重要的是，你需要观察的葡萄酒的颜色，然后再品尝。 The first step in the wine tasting is the visual appearance, it is important that you do use a long stemmed wine glass（n.高脚酒杯） without any scenic patterns（n.图案） on it which distract its appearance. Fill in the glass about one third. Pick it and examine on the shade, concentration and the clarity（n.清楚，透明）. With time red wines become light in color and on the other hand the white wine darkens in shade. The wine has to be clear and not cloudy like a beer. Swirl the wine into the mouth and just look on to the bubbles along the side of the glass; these bubbles indicate the level of alcohol content. The more the formation（n.形成） of bubbles then more is the concentration of the alcohol. 第一步，品酒是外观，重要的是你要使用一个干净透明酒杯并且没有任何可以分散品尝酒的外观。品酒时应装满约三分之一玻璃杯。观察玻璃杯的阴影，浓度和清晰度。随着时间的推移再慢慢开始观察葡萄酒的颜色和另一方面，其中白葡萄酒的颜色会变暗。所以明确葡萄酒的种类是必须的. The next step is to smell the wine, hold the glass near your nose and in turn register the smell. It is important that you do smell the wine deeply so that it reaches your olfactory lobes where the smell gets registered. Various aromas （n.香味，芬芳）plunge from the wine like those of the flowery, fruity（adj.果味的，有香味的） and herbal. 第二步是葡萄酒的气味，举起玻璃杯而你的鼻子可以闻到气味。最重要的是，如果你闻到葡萄酒味足够深，葡萄酒的气味会达到您的嗅觉系统并且被记住。不同香味的葡萄酒会有不一样的味道。 The next is the best part of sipping the aromatic wine on to your mouth wherein it is important that you do not swallow the wine directly, but roll the wine directly on to mouth and in turn feel the various flavors which are present in the wine. Thus the simple process of wine tasting gets over with the three steps of look, smell and sip（v.吸吮）. 第三步是最好的一部分，把葡萄酒的芳香带给你的嘴，其中重要的是，你不能直接吞下酒，用舌头卷住酒直接把它送进嘴里然后再体味各种口味的葡萄酒本。 So that's the Steps to taste wine. 这就是品酒的3个步骤。 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/078c5a23dd36a32d73758133.html
