Grape Wine
Grape wine is the second beverage in the international market, only next to beer. At the present, the grape wine already becomes the pronoun of wealth, fashion and personal status. Grape wine is well know to be beneficial to people's health, but how to choose, drink or store grape wine is a knowledge. There is a wonder: how the grape wine gets its color, since almost all grape juice (even from the black grapes) is basically colorless. The secret is letting the skins soak in the juice during fermentation.
葡萄酒
葡萄酒是国际市场上的第二大饮料,仅次于啤酒。如今,葡萄酒已经成为财富、时尚和个人地位的代名词。众所周知,葡萄酒有益于身体健康,不过怎么挑选、饮用和储存葡萄酒却是一门学问。有一个疑问:葡萄酒是怎么形成它独特的色泽的呢?因为几乎所有的葡萄汁(即使来自黑葡萄)基本上都是无色的。诀窍就在于在发酵过程中把葡萄皮浸泡在葡萄汁中。
