Every time I talk about wine-related topics, I can't avoid Shandong Province.
We all know that Shandong people love to drink, the amount of alcohol is amazing, and the wine culture is also very long, but when it comes to Shandong good wine, few people can answer it.
Is there really no good wine in Shandong?
Of course not! Shandong Province has more than 500 well-known wineries, and a basket of good wines.
However, often because of some external factors, such as packaging, publicity is not in place, so that many high-quality pure brews that "resolutely do not add 1 drop of flavor" have been left out of Qilu and eventually become Shandong's "holding back wine".
[Weifang]——A pint of Jingzhi
Yipin Jingzhi, one of the 13 kinds of aromatic wines in mainland China - the representative wine of sesame flavor.
After 50 years of research on the liquor process, take its essence and remove its dross.
There is no sesame seeds, and only sorghum and wheat are used as raw materials to brew this liquor with "sesame flavor".
The open bottle of wine is fragrant, not only has an elegant and comfortable sesame aroma, but also a floral and fruity aroma, raw melon seed fragrance, the entrance is slightly spicy, delicate and sweet, both the fragrance of the strong wine, and the light elegance of the fragrant wine, as well as the unique mellow feeling of the sauce, with excellent wine quality, in the 80s, it has become a good product for many Shandong people to drink alone and go to relatives.
[Linyi] - Lanling King
Lanling King, a wine made in honor of Lanling King Gao su.
It has been more than 3,000 years ago, using sorghum and wheat as the main raw materials, and resolutely not adding 1 drop of flavor.
In the hearts of Shandong locals, the wine quality is very good.
Classic aromatic liquor, full of wine, open bottle of wine aromatic, the entrance is full of fragrance, sweet and refreshing, smooth and smooth, long aftertaste.
[Qingzhou] - Cloud Gate aging
Cloud Gate aging, a very old sauce wine.
In that year, together with Moutai Distillery and Langjiu Distillery, it participated in the "Establishment of Brewing Implementation Standards" of sauce-flavored liquor, and enjoyed a high reputation in Shandong, known as "Northern Little Maotai".
However, because the production area is in the north, the brewing climate, microorganisms, etc. are different, so it is different from Maotai in terms of taste and has its own characteristics.
The wine body is relatively mellow, slightly yellowed, the hops are not dense enough, and the dissipation speed is fast.
The smell of fragrant sauce is rich, the chen fragrance is introverted, the overall entrance is more inclined to the sweet feeling, and the persistence of the fragrance is not very strong.
【Heze】——Corolla wine
Corolla, a standard Lupai liquor.
Once very famous, as early as 1991, it was rated as "Shandong Province Quality Product".
Raw materials are made of sorghum, wheat and other five kinds of grain brewing, the overall flavor of the wine is very good, the cellar aroma is strong, the entrance is clear and palatable, soft and mellow, not stimulating after drinking, not dry mouth, uniquely loved by the locals.
Many people wonder, why is a wine party called a corolla? This is because its place of origin, Heze, is known as the "land of peonies", so basically all local products are related to peonies, hence the name of corolla wine.
Seeing here, is it not a feeling that a lot of good wine has been missed, in fact, not only shandong good wine is countless, no one can go out of Ludi, Yangshao in Henan, Congtai in Hebei, rice wine in the south, the following 2, etc., are the good wines that the local people are happy with, but they are not known for various reasons.
