带什么酒去赴餐好
Salesperson: Hello there, welcome to Wine World. Let me know if I can help you out at all.
你好,欢迎来到酒的世界。有什么可以帮助的吗
Customer: Um, yes, please, I could really use some help. Im going over to my bosshouse for dinner tonight and dont know what kind of wine I should bring.
嗯,是的,确实需要你的帮助。今晚我要去老板家里做客,但是不知道带什么酒比较合适。
Salesperson: OK, do you know what kind of food will be served
好的,你知道你的老板会招待你们喝什么吗
Customer: Well, his wife is Japanese. He said she makes really good sushi.
嗯,他的妻子是日本人。他说她做的寿司很好吃。
Salesperson: Hmm, thats a bit of a challenge. Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine. Well, lets see. have to be a white wine, of course.
嗯,那会有点挑战。众所周知寿司很难和酒搭配。嗯,让我想想,当然必定是白酒。
Customer: Why Wouldnt a red wine go well with sushi
为什么没有红酒可以和寿司搭配的吗
Salesperson: No, I dont think so. Sushi is a very delicately flavored food, and red wine would be a jarring contrast. You need a white wine, which has more subtle flavors, to complement the fish.
不,我不认为。寿司是调味精致的食物,红酒会和它构成强烈的对比。你需要一点白酒,和鱼搭配起来味道会很好。
Customer: I see. So should I get a bottle of Chardonnay Thats a white wine, right
我知道了。我应该买一瓶雪当利,那是白酒,对吗
Salesperson: Yes, Chardonnay is a white wine, but Im not sure itd be your best bet. Chardonnay is one of the more fullbodied whites, and tends to be a bit oaky. Id suggest that you go for something brighter, like this Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand.
是的,雪当利是一种浓烈的酒,还行吧。我建议你买一些淡一些,比如来自新西兰的白苏维浓。
Customer: Sauvignon Blanc Whats that
白苏维浓,那是什么
Salesperson: Thats another varietal, or type of grape, just like Chardonnay.
那是用一种葡萄酿制的葡萄酒,葡萄酒的一种,就像雪当利。
Customer: Lets see. The label says its got attractive citrus and grassy aromas that give way to crisp, mineral flavors and a bonedry finish. Serve chilled. Oh, no, how long will it take to chill the wine Im on my way to the dinner now.
让我看看,标签上写着有具有魔力柑橘和甘草香气,非常松脆的,有矿物的味道,并且是全干的,适宜冰镇后食用。
Salesperson: Its OK, dont worry, well just choose a wine from the cooler. We dont have quite as extensive a selection over here, but...this Rhone Valley white would be lovely.
好的,不用担心,我们只是从冰箱里面选择一瓶酒。我们没有很多的选择,但是罗纳河白酒很不错。
Customer: All right. What varietal is that
好吧,是用什么酿成的
Salesperson: Well, this is a French wine, so they dont always specify the varietal on the label. The French believe that the soil a grape is grown in is one of the most important factors in the final flavor of the wine. This wine is probably a blend of a few different types of grapes, mostly Viognier, Id guess.
嗯,这是法国酒,因此他们不明确地标注是由什么酒酿造的。法国人认为葡萄生长的土地是酒最终味道的最重要因素之一。这种酒是不同葡萄在一起酿成的,我觉得最多的是维欧尼。
Customer: And you think this is a good wine
你觉得这是好酒吗
Salesperson: Yes, this is one of our best-sellers. Its not quite as dry as the Sauvignon Blanc we were looking at earlier, which means its more approachable. Its light and crisp, with a bit of a vanilla aroma.
是的,这是最畅销的就。它不像我们之前看到的索维农葡萄那样那么干,它更加容易入口。它又轻又脆,带有一点香草的香气。
Customer: Perfect! Ill take it!
太好了!我就买这个了!
