Unexpectedly, I met a wine connoisseur in June this year, so I wanted to show off.

How to identify fake wine?
3 simple methods that you will know with just one try, even if you don’t know about wine
In fact, there are many ways to identify real and fake wine on the Internet, but most of the methods I saw have more tricks, such as: fire, chemical methods, etc. are too complicated and not very practical. Today Let me teach you 3 simple and practical methods. Even if you don’t know how to drink, you can know the method after trying it.
★Watch the bottle
First of all, when you buy a famous wine and you are not sure whether it is real, you can first look at the "anti-counterfeiting mark". Generally, famous wines have anti-counterfeiting marks, so you can tell the difference by scanning the QR code. Some fake wine.
Secondly, many fake brand-name wines are usually "genuine bottles + inferior wine". This situation usually leaves traces on the bottle. If the anti-counterfeiting mark is OK, you can shine a light on the bottle. If there are black marks on the bottle, point, then it is most likely fake wine.
★ Rub and heat and smell the aroma
Pour a few drops of wine into the palm of your hand, rub it back and forth to heat and smell the aroma. Really good wine is sticky during the rubbing process, and the smell it emits is pure and not pungent, and it is only short-lived after rubbing. The scent remains and will dissipate after some time.
We can use this method to judge the quality of wine when distinguishing it. Remember that the aroma of good pure grain wine is as fragrant as flowers when it enters the nasal cavity.
★Stick the wine in an empty cup
Shake the wine glass to allow the wine to fully contact the wall of the glass. Pour out the wine and let it sit until it completely evaporates. Then you can identify the quality of the wine by smelling the aroma. The principle is the same as rubbing it with your hands. The aroma retained in an empty cup is currently one of the most intuitive and reliable methods of sensory wine appreciation. It is also one of the indispensable wine appreciation processes for professional sommeliers and tasting experts.
Most of the inferior wines can be screened out through these three wine tasting methods. Really good wines still have to be judged by your own feelings, through looking at the color, smelling the aroma, and comprehensively tasting it. If you have friends who have wine around you, you can verify it yourself. one time. How to comprehensively evaluate a wine?
Take the currently popular Han Dong Master Liquor Handmade 6 as an example.
Watch the color:
Hand-brewed 6 has been brewed with 6 years of old wine after a 1-year production cycle. After 3 years of cellaring, the color it presents is a natural slightly yellowish color. This color can be seen when there is contrast. It can only be seen under certain conditions, but it is still clear and translucent to the naked eye.
Smell the aroma:
Put this wine to your nose and smell it lightly. What you smell is the aroma of sauce and burnt, accompanied by the fruity aroma of apple, pear and banana. It is not pungent when you take a deep breath, and has an obvious dense sweet aroma. .
Taste the taste:
Sip a little first, and then sip it in your mouth. The entrance is soft and not spicy, with a slightly astringent feeling, with a little sweetness, and a floral fragrance in the nose. There is also a bit of burnt aroma.
After analyzing the above methods and examples, I believe everyone must have the awareness to distinguish. Not to mention that you spend a lot of money to buy fake wine. If you drink it to your body, it will not be worth the gain. Therefore, you must identify it when buying wine. !
