…
This was not the first time James and Cheryl came here, and they also served as translators and tour guides for Zhao Xiaoyang.
Although it is called a farm, it is actually not very big, only a few thousand square meters. If it were not for the recent construction of a pig farm and a walnut forest, it would be quite empty.
Despite Zhao Xiaoyang's enthusiastic invitation, Cheryl and Victoria still declined the invitation to visit the pig farm. They went to the strawberry greenhouse with great interest to pick some strawberries.
Then he took a walk around the back mountain with great interest.
The scenery of Lao Nanshan is not bad, and it is also a tourist attraction with some fame in the surrounding area. However, its commercial development is very average, and most of the current business atmosphere is still driven by Zhao Xiaoyang.
So for people like James who have traveled all over the world, the place has a more authentic feel.
Finally, Victoria stopped under the grape trellis in the front yard. Looking at the fruits hanging on the trellis, she couldn't help but show her admiration.
"Mr. Zhao, is this grape variety you cultivated yourself?"
After eating Zhao Xiaoyang's strawberries and taking a tour around the farm, the group had a better understanding of Zhao Xiaoyang's farm.
In their opinion, Zhao Xiaoyang is not an ordinary farmer, he specializes in high-quality cultivation.
In fact, there are many such R&D farms abroad.
"yes!"
As Zhao Xiaoyang spoke, he quickly entered the system mall and browsed the detailed introduction of his grape.
He introduced: "My grapes are crystal grapes. They have a very high sugar content, much higher than ordinary grapes. So not only do they taste better, but they are also suitable for making wine!"
"By the way, Victoria, your family is an expert in brewing wine. How about you help me take a look?"
Hearing this, Victoria narrowed her beautiful eyes.
There was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.
To be honest, these grapes are very beautiful and big.
If it is simply used as a fruit, it is definitely very good, but Victoria has reservations about using it for making wine.
There is a big difference between wine grapes and fresh grapes.
First of all, Victoria is very familiar with the grapes used for winemaking.
Just as Zhao Xiaoyang said, the sweetness is indeed at least twice that of ordinary grapes, which is consistent with the facts.
Similarly, the acidity of wine grapes will be significantly better. If you eat them, they will have a strong taste of sour and sweet. It is okay to eat one to taste, but if you eat too much, you will get tired of it.
Of course, this is just a matter of taste, and Victoria can't tell by visual inspection at the moment.
But the most obvious problem is that wine grapes are obviously more than one size smaller than fresh grapes.
The best wine grapes are only slightly larger than blueberries, which is because wine grapes are more concentrated in elements and easier to ferment.
However, at this moment, Victoria saw that the crystal grapes on Zhao Xiaoyang's grape rack were round and full, and were the best-looking ones outside the fruit market.
To be honest, using such grapes to make wine will greatly affect the quality of the wine.
However, these thoughts only flashed through Victoria's mind, and she naturally would not say them out loud.
After all, Zhao Xiaoyang's grape trellis is not a professional grape farm.
In fact, what Victoria didn’t know was that Zhao Xiaoyang’s grapes would take at least one or two weeks to fully mature, and now was not the best time!
"Victoria, what do you think? My grapes are big and have a rich flavor. Are they suitable for making wine?"
Well……
Victoria gave Zhao Xiaoyang a coquettish look and said nothing: "Can I try it?"
"sure!"
Zhao Xiaoyang immediately picked one and said, "But this crystal grape isn't fully ripe yet. I just tried it and it tastes a bit sour, but also quite sweet. It might taste a little strange."
Hearing this, Victoria shook her head slightly: "No, grapes suitable for winemaking taste like this. If that's the case, I really want to try it."
"Because it's really rare to see wine grapes grow this big!"
Victoria couldn't help but remind Zhao Xiaoyang.
Zhao Xiaoyang didn't understand anything about that, he just happily handed over the freshly washed grapes.
I gave one to each of James and the others.
"oh!"
The bearded Dr. Hans frowned as soon as he took a bite and spoke in very unauthentic Chinese: "So... sour!"
"No, it's obviously so sweet!"
The next moment, James felt a strong sweetness covering the sour taste that had just entered his mouth, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
Dr. Hans also reacted at this moment and nodded quickly.
Cheryl looked at Victoria and said, "Victoria, do Xiaoyang's grapes taste similar to the wine grapes on your farm?"
