人这种动物有时候还真是活在记忆中,年轻时盼望着快点成熟,早点出来闯天下;年长时,又只能嚼着过往甜美的回忆,舒坦舒坦心情。年底了,也比较忙,不知不觉圣诞节就跑来了,骤然啊骤然。对于这个本不属于东方的西方大节,上海各大商圈煞有介事地装点着各自的门面,圣诞树、长胡子老爷、拉车麋鹿都在仓库里窝好久了,也总算能趁“生蛋”这几天出来透透气,顺便搞点气氛帮商家们撬开消费者的口袋。
不过,对于死板的摩羯男,节日好像不会成为心动的理由,反而带来更多的思绪,若一颗小石激起心中涟漪。对于奔三的男人,貌似不该去怀念儿童节,不过,我着实在平安夜前夕怀念着今年的儿童节,哈哈。
与其说怀念儿童节,不如说怀念儿童节时大黄在公司开的那一瓶香槟,那一瓶纪念逝去年华的Baron Fuente Grand Cru Champagne。
再谈谈儿童节的惊喜---Baron Fuente Grand Cru。Baron家族的酿酒历史可以追溯到17世纪,他们很早就在香槟地区的Charly sur Marne就拥有了葡萄园,不过他们当时酿造的香槟可不叫Baron Fuente。1966年,帅小伙Gabriel Baron跟Dolores Fuente喜结良缘,帅小伙他爹老Baron赠送了一公顷(One hectare)葡萄园给这新婚的小两口添添喜气,而当时这一公顷葡萄园产的香槟酒也取用Baron和Fuente这两个姓组合了新名字。不过,在初期,由于产量较少,Baron Fuente香槟也只出售给当地一些私人客户和xx餐厅。

当然,现在的Baron Fuente无论在葡萄园面积、酿酒设备和技术等方面有了很大的拓展和提高,在法国也是名气不小,并紧跟经济全球化脚步开始开拓国际市场。

The Baron family has a long history in wine making which dates
back to the 17th century. The vineyards are situated in Charly Sur
Marne in the western Champagne vineyard area.
Charly-sur-Marne is a commune in the Aisne department in Picardie in northern France. Charly was an old fortified city dating from 9th century Burgundy. The old city lies to the north of the Marne. Across the river are the villages of Nogent-l'Artaud and Pavant. The town of Charly is half-way between La Ferté-sous-Jouarre and Château-Thierry, and half-way between Paris and Rheims.
In 1966 Gabriel Baron married Dolores Fuenté. For this very special occasion Gabriel’s father gave the happy couple one hectare of vineyard and Champagne Baron Fuenté was born, which was named as such to commemorate their marriage. In the early beginning the first bottles were marketed directly to private customers and local restaurants.
The following years Baron Fuenté invested heavily in their
quality, production and volume. Nowadays Baron Fuenté owns 35
hectares of vineyards and is still devoted to continuous
improvement of various aspects of its business:
