Welcome back! Today's video is strictly for my over-18 audience, which I know is most of the people that watch these videos.
欢迎回来！今天的视频仅供18岁以上的观众观看，我知道这期视频的观看人数是最多的。
The reason being is that I'm going to be talking about wine, and I need to put it out there that I don't condone underaged drinking.
原因是，我要谈论的是酒，我需要把它说出来，我不能容忍未成年人喝酒。
This is a video for people who are going to be, maybe being entertained in English.
这个视频是为那些，可能会被款待的人准备的。
If you go and do business in an English-speaking country, it's very likely that you'll be offered a glass of wine.
如果你去说英语的国家做生意，你很可能会得到一杯葡萄酒。
So, this is to help you make informed decisions about what type of wine you might want to drink
所以，这期视频可以帮助你明智地决定要喝什么类型的葡萄酒，
and to also give you a bank of phrases that you can use to comment on your appreciation of wine.
也给你讲一些短语，你可以用来评论你对葡萄酒的欣赏。
The idea from this lesson came from me going into an independent wine shop a couple of weeks ago back in England.
这堂课的灵感来自于我几个星期前在英国去一家独立的酒店。
I went into the shop and I said, "I'd like a bottle of red wine, please."
我走进商店，说：“我想要一瓶红酒。”
And the lady looked at me like I was half-mad and said, "Well, this is a wine shop."
那位女士看着我，好像我疯了，然后说：“嗯，这是一家酒店。”
So, this is partly from my desire to educate myself about the world of wines and I'm by no means an expert.
这在一定程度上是因为我想让自己了解葡萄酒世界，而我绝不是专家。
I'm very much at the beginning of this journey, and you may know more than me about wine and there are things that you notice in this video,
我才刚刚开始这段旅程，你们可能比我更了解葡萄酒。在这段视频中如果你们注意到一些东西，
drop me a comment and you'll be good, so I can learn from that.
那就给我留言评论，这样就好了，我就可以从中学习。
If you're not interested in wine, then just treat this as a listening comprehension and test yourself with the quiz at the end.
如果你对葡萄酒不感兴趣，那就把这当作听力理解，然后在最后用小测验来测试自己。
Let's get started. So, to begin with, I'm going to talk about the different types of wines, both white and red.
让我们开始吧。所以，首先，我要谈谈不同类型的葡萄酒，包括白葡萄酒和红葡萄酒。
I'll be talking about where they are grown.
我要讲的是它们的产地。
We'll be looking at when you are tasting a wine, what kind of comments you might be looking to make.
我们会看一下，当你品尝葡萄酒时，你可能会发表什么样的评论。
So, starting with white wines. A Riesling, this is traditionally from Germany.
所以，从白葡萄酒开始。雷司令，它传统上来自德国。
It's a dry - can be slightly sweet wine. So, we've got adjectives here.
这是一种干的-可以是微甜的葡萄酒。这里有形容词。
Dry and sweet. It goes well with - it accompanies fish, chicken, and pork.
干的和甜的。它配鱼肉、鸡肉、猪肉都很好吃。
The aromas, that's the smell that you get when you put your nose to the glass, can be fresh apple.
当你把你的鼻子放在酒杯上时，你闻到的香味可能是新鲜的苹果味。
So, it makes me think of summer, this. It sounds really quite refreshing.
这让我想起了夏天。听起来真的很提神。
Next white wine, a Chardonnay. At its best, it is velvety with citrus tones.
接下来是白葡萄酒，夏敦埃酒。最好的时候，它有天鹅绒般的柑橘味。
Tone, that's a good word to use when talking about wine. Tone, like flavor.
口味，这个词在谈论葡萄酒时很好用。口味，就像味道。
Chardonnay goes well with fish and chicken, and it's best grown in France, but it is also grown in other parts of the world.
夏敦埃酒很适合搭配鱼肉和鸡肉，法国生产的夏敦埃酒是最好的，但世界其他地方也有生产。
Our next one: Sauvignon Blanc. Can you say that? Sauvignon Blanc.
下一个是白苏维浓。你能这么说吗？白苏维浓。
I'm sure some French listeners will probably say, "Not quite right", but it's about that.
我相信一些法国听众可能会说，“不完全正确”，但就是这样。
Sauvignon Blanc goes well with seafood, poultry, salads.
白苏维浓与海鲜、家禽、沙拉很搭。
Just a note on the pronunciation, so if you're coming to an English-speaking country,
只要注意一下发音，所以如果你来到讲英语的国家，
you'll have to make yourself understood by someone who is, presumably, English behind the bar or restaurant counter.
你得让吧台或餐馆柜台后面的一个可能是英国人的人听懂你的话。
And they might not have beautiful French pronunciation.
他们可能没有漂亮的法语发音。
Okay, so what is Sauvignon Blanc like? Well, it's quite a light white wine, hint of herb, some can be quite fruity,
好吧，那么长相思是什么味道的呢？这是一种很淡的白葡萄酒，有一点香草味，有些还会有水果味，
and it's grown in France and New Zealand to good effect.
它的产地是法国和新西兰，效果很好。
Okay? I always find it quite confusing because we've got Sauvignon Blanc and then we've got Cabernet Sauvignon.
好吧？我总是觉得很困惑，因为我们有白苏维浓和赤霞珠。
So, Cab Sav is red and Sav Blanc, blanc, French word for "white" is white.
所以“Cab Sav”是红色的，Sav Blanc，法语中“white”的说法是white。
Cab Sav, red. Sav Blanc, white. Red wines.
“Cab Sav”是红葡萄酒。Sav Blanc是白葡萄酒。红酒。
We've got Shiraz, sometimes known as Syrah. It's a hearty and spicy wine.
我们有设拉子，有时也被称为席拉。这是一种强烈而辛辣的酒。
The flavors you should get when you drink this wine are a sort of wild, black fruit.
当你喝这种酒的时候，你应该品到一种野生的，黑色的水果味道。
Wild blackberries, okay? And roasting meats. So, this is more a sort of a winter drink.
野生黑莓的味道。还有烤肉。所以，这更像是一种冬季饮品。
Goes well with meat. Best grown in France, California, and Australia.
它配肉饮用很好。产地有法国、加利福尼亚和澳大利亚。
Some of these wines can be quite average, so if you're getting a Shiraz, try to get a good one. Merlot.
这些酒中的一些可能相当普通，所以如果你买的是设拉子，那就选好一点的。梅洛。
I don't know much about Merlot; other than it's a pretty easy drinking wine and you can serve it with any food.
我对梅洛不太了解；除了知道它是一种很容易饮用的葡萄酒，你可以与任何食物搭配。
So, if you've got any more knowledge about Merlot, then write a comment below and let's keep this conversation going.
所以，如果你对梅洛有更多的了解，请在下面写下你的评论，让我们继续这个话题。
Malbec. Malbec, dark fruit flavors. It's got a smoky finish.
马尔贝克。马尔白克，深色水果味。它是烟熏制成的。
So, you know, it's good to sort of savor this. It's not - all wine should be savored, really.
你知道，它是一种享受。并不是，所有的葡萄酒都应该被品尝。
Malbec can be a very good value. Does have a medium level of tannins.
马尔贝克可能有很好的价值。它的丹宁酸含量适中。
I will be explaining what tannins mean in a moment, but it's to do with sort of the lightness and heaviness of a wine.
我一会儿会解释单宁酸是什么意思，但它和葡萄酒的轻盈和沉重有关。
And Malbec is best grown in France and Argentina. Okay? So, we've had Shiraz - hearty, spicy.
法国和阿根廷产出的马尔白克最好。好吧？所以，我们喝了设拉子——丰盛，辛辣。
Merlot, quite an easy drinking wine. Malbec - dark fruit with a smoky finish.
马尔白克是很容易喝的酒。马尔白克，深色水果，带有烟熏味。
And Cabernet Sauvignon - by the way, these are not all of the wines in the world, yep.
还有赤霞珠——顺便说一下，这并不是世界上所有的葡萄酒，没错。
I've just pulled out some of the most well-known wines.
我刚刚拿出了一些最著名的葡萄酒。
Cabernet Sauvignon - a full bodied, so that means it's quite - it's not light.
赤霞珠——酒体饱满，这意味着它不轻。
It feels quite sort of substantial, yep.
感觉很充实，是的。
You don't want to sort of take a big sip, it's more like a little sip, okay? Goes well with red meat.
你不应该大啜一口，应该是小啜一口，好吗？适合搭配红肉。
Grown well in France, Australia, California, and Chile.
在法国、澳大利亚、加利福尼亚和智利生长良好。
Okay, we're going to learn in a moment what to say when you are tasting a wine for the first time.
