外国葡萄酒用的英文符号!
1. ACCESSIBLE（已可饮用）——已经可以品尝的酒；适饮期的酒；不需储藏的新酒，成熟的老酒和比预期早熟的酒。
2. ACETIC ACID（醋酸）——所有酒都含有轻微而不易察觉的醋酸（约0.03% -0.06%）。如果比例超过0.1%，酸味会变得明显，就有如指甲油般的味道。
3. ACID，ACIDITY（酸度）——酒酸，是造成葡萄酒 (特别是白酒) 的结构及厚度的重要因素。若与丹宁等其他元素不平衡，会造成瑕疵。通常以 Tart或 Sour来形容酸度过高的酒。甜酒的酸度会比不甜酒略高。
4. AFTERTASTE（余韵，回甘）——指入喉后的回甘。这回甘与酒停留在你口中的香味将有所不同，有辛辣的感受，余韵越长表示越好, 是欣赏葡萄酒最后的一个愉快的项目。
5. AGE/AGED（陈年／成熟）——经陈年的白酒通常由青绿转变为金黄色。波尔多红酒由紫转深红，布根地由紫变砖红。实际颜色转变视葡萄品种而定。
如何用英文推销葡萄酒？？？
1 When will this wine be at its peak?
1 保存多久的葡萄酒状态最佳？
First, remember that most wines are made to drink when they are released. In terms of fine, ageable wines, there are all sorts of online sources that will give you a ballpark idea of theoretical peak readiness. But every bottle is different and there are many variables, such as storage conditions and personal taste. Open a special bottle when the moment seems right to you. If you have an old bottle like those old Lafites, make a special meal, open the bottles and celebrate the memories. If you simply can't stand to do that alone, remember that Open That Bottle Night is the last Saturday of February. That's when you can join others like you, world-wide, in opening their special bottles.
首先要记住一点，葡萄酒生产出来就是为了喝的。针对那些可以长时间存放的精品葡萄酒，网上有各种资源会给你一个理论上的最佳存放时间；但每一瓶酒都是不同的，存放状态不一样，每个人的口味偏好也不一样。当你觉得某个时刻值得庆祝时，就打开一瓶特殊的葡萄酒吧。如果你有一瓶拉菲这样的陈年葡萄酒，那不妨准备一顿丰盛的美食，开瓶庆祝一下美好的回忆。如果你不愿一个人独享，那就记住每年的“开瓶夜”(Open That Bottle Night)是二月份的最后一个星期六。在这一天，你可以和全世界的葡萄酒爱好者一起，打开你们珍藏的那瓶陈年葡萄酒。
2. What's the best glass?
2. 什么杯子喝葡萄酒最合适？
We prefer a large glass - around 20 to 22 ounces is good - because it feels generous in our hands and we can swirl around the small amount we pour into it. Look for clear, thin glass; a long stem; and a slight curve inward at the top. We prefer inexpensive glasses so we don't worry about breaking them. Over the years, we have found good glasses at a wide variety of stores, including Pier 1 and Costco (though we haven't seen our favorites at either place recently). Vino Grande Burgundy from Spiegelau, which is owned by Riedel, is our everyday glass.
我们喜欢大一点的葡萄酒杯，重量在20到22盎司比较适宜，因为那样手感很好，能来回旋转杯中倒入的少量葡萄酒。要找那种透明度高、杯壁薄、杯脚长、杯口微微收拢的杯子，价格不要太贵，免得打碎了心疼。这些年来，我们在很多商店都发现不少好杯子，比如Pier 1和Costco连锁超市等（但这两个地方最近都买不到我们最青睐的那些酒杯）。奥地利力多公司(Riedel)旗下的德国诗杯客乐(Spiegelau)出品的勃艮蒂杯(Vino Grande Burgundy)是我们品酒的日常用具。
3. What wines should I serve at a party (or to any large gathering)?
3. 开派对（或任何大型聚会）时应该选什么葡萄酒？
For a white, Chilean or New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is a winner. For a red, we used to recommend one of the cru Beaujolais (such as Fleurie) and we still like that advice, but Argentina's Malbec is so popular right now and so widely enjoyed that we'd recommend that instead. If you are looking for an affordable bubbly for a group, it's hard to go wrong with Cava from Spain.
如果选白葡萄酒，智利或新西兰的长相思最好。如果选红葡萄酒，我们以前推荐过薄若来列级（cru Beaujolais，薄若来的最高级法定产区），比如弗俐叶(Fleurie)红酒，如今也没有改变观点；但阿根廷的马尔白克现在非常热门，很多人都爱喝，因此我们改为推荐这个品种。如果你想找一款物美价廉的气泡酒，那么选择西班牙的卡瓦酒(Cava)应该没错。
4. Why does wine give me headaches; sulfites, right?
4. 为什么我喝葡萄酒后会头疼，是因为葡萄酒中含有亚硫酸盐吗？
Wrong. Sulfites cause very severe allergic reactions in a small number of people, even death in extreme cases, which is why there's a warning on the bottle, but sulfites don't cause headaches. Wine headaches are a serious issue, but the causes are highly personal. Some people get headaches only from red wine and some get them just from, say, German wine. It has to do with histamines and all sorts of other complex science. It really is best to talk with your doctor about this.
不对。亚硫酸盐会导致一小部分人产生严重的过敏反应，极端情况下甚至会致死，因此酒瓶上都标有相应的警示文字，但亚硫酸盐不会引起头疼。喝葡萄酒感觉头疼是一个严重的问题，但原因是因人而异的。有些人只喝红葡萄酒后头疼，而有些人只喝德国葡萄酒后头疼。这跟人体内的组织胺以及其他各种复杂的生化反应有关，最好是向你的医生咨询意见。
