杯酒人生:Why are you so into Pinot?

这部片看了就忘，忘了还看，看了又忘，但还是很喜欢。
可能更多的是一种感觉，而不是情节不是台词，是喜欢和你一起饮酒到微醺的享受，然而之后却又朦胧的记忆。

好像小时候都都喜欢甜甜的酒。Moscato, Riesling, 各种喜悦的没有负担的sparkling. 还没有时间精力耐心去好好品味红酒，也不懂其中的分别，密码纹路一样的口感，也没有在意到能有自己的理解和偏好。现在到了该好好矫情的时候了吧。

这次重看片段，我想记住这段话，这段夜晚门廊的饮酒对谈，以酒语人生的满分台词。

- Why are you so into pinot? I mean...It's like a thing with you.

- Uh...I don't know. I don't know. Um...It's a hard grape to grow. As you know, right? It's thin-skinned, temperamental, ripens early. Its..You know, it's not a survivor like cabernet, which can just grow anywhere and thrive even when it's neglected. No. Pinot needs constant care and attention. You know? And in fact it can only grow in these really specific little tucked-away corners of the world. And only the most patient and nurturing of growers can do it. Really. Only somebody who really takes the time to understand pinot's potential can then coax it into its fullest expression. And then... Oh its flavors. They are just the most haunting and brilliant and thrilling and subtle and ancient on the planet.

I mean... You know. Cabernets can be powerful and exalting too. But they seem prosaic to me for some reason, be comparison. I don't know. I don't know.. What about you?

- What about me?

- I don't know. Why are you into wine?

- Oh...I think I...I originally got into wine through my ex-husband. You know he had this big sort of show-off cellar. You know.. then I discovered I have this really sharp pallet. And the more I drank, the more I like what it made me think about.

- Like what?

- Like what a fraud he was.

- Wow.

- No I mean I'd like to think about the life of wine. How it'a living thing. I like to think about what was going on the year grape were growing. How the sun was shining. If it rained. I like to think about all the people who tended and picked the grapes. And if it's an old wine, how many of them must be dead by now. I like how wine continues to evolve. Like if I opened a bottle of wine today,it would taste different than if I'd open it on any other day. Because a bottle of wine is actually alive. And it's constantly evolving and gaining complexity. That is until it peaks. Like your 61'. And then it begins its steady, inevitable decline.

- Hmm.

- And it tastes so fucking good.

- (气氛达到美好的顶峰，中年男主紧张了怂了不敢对视)..I like other wines besides pinot too. I mean..Lately I've been really into Rieslings. You like Rieslings?

- Mm-hmm.

- Is there a bathroom? （男主居然尿遁！！！！！！然后自己对镜子洗脸自我咒骂去了）
