Chapter 351 The World's Most Expensive Red Wine

You know, from the perspective of brand prices, Romanee-Conti is generally more expensive than "Castle Lafite".And from the comparison of the total amount of red wine, the price of a standard 750ml bottle of "Castle Lafite" and three bottles of 3000ml Romanee-Conti are completely unequal under normal circumstances.Besides, the Romanée-Conti red wine that appeared in the movie "Mermaid" was in 1990...

Just as everyone was weighing this in their hearts, Shen Li turned to the bodyguard and said, "Open the wooden box."

Then everyone saw a foreign bodyguard in a black coat, following Shen Li's instructions, carefully opened the wooden box.

Immediately!A bottle of 750ml Lafite red wine was presented in front of everyone.Almost everyone present, the only thought now is to see how old is this bottle of Chateau Lafite?After all, they have tasted all of the top ten red wine brands in the world, and have collected quite a few of them.If the vintage was recent, even after 2000, they would probably think it was overkill.

However, when everyone opened their eyes wide and looked carefully at the Lafite red wine in the wooden box!All I could see with my eyes was that the line of "produced in 1787" was impressively printed on the packaging of the wine bottle!
"A 1787 Lafite!? Am I reading that right!?"

"It's from 1787! Look, it's engraved with Th. J.!"

All the directors and celebrities looked at the red wine brought by Shen Li, and felt it was as incredible as a dream!

At this time, director Xu Yike looked at the red wine with an obsessed expression and said, "Lafite produced in 1787 is the most expensive bottle of red wine sold in the world. As early as 1985, at Christie's auction house in London, The price of a bottle of 16 US dollars set a record for the most expensive red wine transaction in Guinness. There is a bottle of Lafite red wine produced in 1787 in the Forbes collection. The initials of President Jefferson are engraved on the bottle. Th. J.”

"Th. J. A few English letters, which represent this bottle of wine, which was once collected by one of the most influential figures in American history, that is, the third president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson."

Some staff around who didn't know much about red wine, after listening to Director Xu Yike's explanation, all belatedly exclaimed!
"It was sold for 1985 US dollars in 16? And now in 2016, a full 31 years have passed! How much does this bottle of red wine cost?"

"If you calculate it based on a 10% annual increase and compound interest, at least...at least 60! And it's in US dollars!"

"Oh my god! $60...a bottle of red wine? That's crazy!"

……

Director Zhou Xingxing and director Xu Yike are both wine lovers and wine collectors in private.Even in Director Xu's mansion, a cellar dedicated to storing red wine was built, filled with red wine of various brands and years.Anyone who has been to this wine cellar has to be amazed.

However, the two people who love red wine are looking straight at the bottle of Chateau Lafite produced in 1787 in the hands of the bodyguards!You know, what Shen Li said just now was to share it with everyone as a gift.This also means that tonight they will have the honor to taste the world's most precious and high-end No. [-] red wine! ?

Thinking of this, the eyes of Zhou Xingxing and director Xu Yike became even more different.If this bottle of Chateau Lafite is auctioned outside, it may be sold at a price of 1000 million!So based on 750ml, the price per ml... is... 1 RMB!Take a small sip, and then 3 is gone...

"Shen, Mr. Shen, is this bottle of Lafite red wine produced in 1787 opened tonight?" Director Xu Yike asked Shen Li with great concern.

"Well, whatever you want, then open it." When Shen Li spoke, his expression was indifferent the whole time.The directors and celebrities standing in front of him really admired his wealth from the bottom of their hearts...

In fact, this bottle of red wine is one of the collections in the game.Presented to him as a mission reward.Instead of hiding it by himself, Shen Li just remembered that the movie "Mermaid" had a scene about red wine.So I simply brought this bottle of Lafite red wine produced in 1787 to me.

But having said that, if Master Xing's "Mermaid" was to be filmed later, I'm afraid Shen Li might drink the red wine alone on a whim.When the time comes, it is estimated that there is only one empty bottle of 1787 Lafite...

After Shen Li issued the order to finish the work, a bodyguard beside him took out a bottle opener from his body, intending to open the red wine on the spot.

However, at this moment, the director Xu Yike, who loves red wine very much, hurriedly stopped him and said loudly, "Wait! Don't drive here! Let's go inside!"

Because this bottle of red wine is too expensive and rare, the few people present may only drink it once in their lifetime!Therefore, in the process of opening red wine, you must be careful and careful, pious and pious!Try not to waste every drop of red wine, because that is tens of thousands of dollars...

So everyone brought red wine and came to the living room of the mansion, which is the place where the protagonist of the movie "Mermaid" is in the camera, talking loudly and pretending to be aggressive.

It's just that it's not shooting now, and there is no distinction between protagonist and supporting role.The only ones there are awesome people like Shen Li, who open a bottle of red wine casually, and it is the most tens of millions of red wines in the world...

At this moment, Director Xu Yike said to Shen Li in a very timely manner, "Mr. Shen, why don't you open this bottle of red wine! You are the only one here, the most qualified to open it..."

"Okay, then I'll do it." Shen Li casually took the bottle opener handed over by Director Xu, and then completely opened the bottle of Lafite red wine produced in 1787 in front of everyone present.

The moment the cork was pulled out from the bottle, everyone, without exaggeration, seemed to be able to feel and smell the aroma of old wine...

Shen Li saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, but he was not in a hurry to pour out the red wine, but turned around and said to the bodyguard beside him, "Go get the decanter."

"Okay, boss." The bodyguard led the way.

The wine decanter, also known as the decanter bottle and the decanter pot, is a vessel used when drinking newly fermented wine. Its function is to let the wine come into contact with the air, so that the aroma of the wine can be fully volatilized, and the sediment in the wine can be separated.

The red wines produced in classic Old World regions need to be awakened.Because after sobering up, the wine will ferment more perfectly and become more mellow...so this step is necessary.

The crew members around were deeply impressed by Shen Li's taste.Shen Li not only made such an expensive and rare red wine.And even the wine tasting steps are done very carefully, very pursuing...
