第 22 集: 基頓在勃艮第揭開1944年份稀有Chateau Lajonchee葡萄酒背後的秘密

22

In Burgundy, Victor Chanbonne was mentored by his servant Libero in winemaking since childhood, including a vintage wine called Chateau Lajonchee 1944. Victor's wife and château owner Marguerite says that Libero is opposed to expanding the winery since part of the vineyard would be pulled out. Victor and Marguerite each tell Libero that he needs to modernize his outdated tradition in winemaking. Meanwhile, Keaton learns the origin of Chateau Lajonchee 1944, though the château owner plans to pay off debt by selling the last bottle of Chateau Lajonchee 1944 ever made for 10 million francs to a whisky company called Horizon. While visiting the château, Keaton tours the winery. Marguerite plans to replace the oak barrels with stainless steel and the wooden tanks with plastic in order to improve the process of fermentation. Victor and Libero then show Keaton the bottle of Chateau Lajonchee 1944. After Marguerite has an investment meeting with Horizon, Victor tells Keaton that Libero protected him from being spotted in a haystack by the Germans during World War II. During a dinner party, Victor drops the bottle of Chateau Lajonchee 1944 into pieces before preparing to give it to Jan Michel Queff, the chief executive officer of Horizon. The next day, as Keaton learns that Marguerite never visited the vineyard ever since her parents died, Libero previously switched the bottle with another vintage wine after anticipating that Victor would purposely drop it. Both Victor and Marguerite taste one last wineglass of Chateau Lajonchee 1944. (Source: Wikipedia)
