They got off the plane in San Francisco at noon.
The three of them didn't bother Sara.
They didn't plan to stop in San Francisco anyway.
After finding a meal at a random restaurant, they rented an Escalade from a car rental company, and the three of them drove all the way to the vineyard.
This was the little girl's second trip, so it was still a bit novel.
Along the way, she kept raising her little chubby hands and asking some weird questions.
It was already past two o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at the vineyard.
Angel was sitting on a child's chair, dangling her calves, looking curiously at the rows of grapevines not far away.
Susa, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was also looking around, but But I found that the vineyard was not as romantic as imagined.
It's almost like a farmland.
Except for the grass on the side of the small road, the square grape fields are filled with grapevines as tall as a person.
Each row is spaced 15 meters apart.
They have no characteristics, let alone any scenery.
Without stopping, Qin Yi drove directly to the winery.
Susa felt that this place was quite pleasing to the eye.
There was a huge grape trellis in the yard, covering the sky above the head.
There were some sparse branches hanging down.
Walking under it, it felt very quiet and out of the world.
The grapes here have not been picked yet, and they are hanging in bunches, clear and clear, like big black pearls.
Qin Yi took off the big backpack filled with clothes and drove the car into the garage.
Susa held Angel and walked under the grape trellis.
The little girl stretched out her chubby hands and crossed the grape vines, smiling happily.
Passing by a bunch of grapes, I grabbed one and stuffed it into my mouth.
But as soon as I took a bite, my smiling face suddenly turned bitter, and I grinned, looking like I was about to cry.
"Oh, my poor baby," Susa comforted with a smile, "It doesn't matter if it's very sore.
Have you seen that trash can?
Let's throw it in, okay?"
The little girl grinned and nodded sharply.
Susa hugged her and walked quickly for two steps, watched her throw the grapes in, and wiped her mouth.
At this time, Qin Yi came out of the garage.
Angel quickly pouted her lips and asked for comfort: "Uncle Yi, the little grapes are so sour and not delicious."
"Ha, this is for wine making.
It can't be eaten.
I'll ask someone to buy some delicious food later."
Qin Yi touched the little girl's face with his fingers, then held her little hand, picked up the big backpack and entered the house, Susa Follow behind.
Continue to look at it as you walk.
The decoration in the house is not as luxurious as the ranch house, but it is simple, elegant and rich in connotation, which is two different styles from the pastoral atmosphere of the main house.
Susa chose a room and took the little girl in to clean up.
Qin Yi called Old Pete.
After a while, Old Pete drove over in his old Toyota.
The two chatted for a while.
Qin Yi took out a bottle of fruit wine from his backpack, poured half a cup for Old Pete, and motioned for him to try it.
Old Pete didn't know what he meant.
But smelling the aroma of the wine makes people eager to try it Pick it up, put it to the tip of your nose and take a sip, close your eyes and feel it, shake your head slightly, feeling a little intoxicated.
After a while, you take a small sip, let the wine melt on the tip of your tongue, and feel the taste of the fruit wine.

Qin Yi poured some himself and watched his reaction while drinking.
I nodded in my heart, as expected of someone who has been dealing with winemaking all his life.
Although he has been a worker all his life, this is the skill of wine tasting.
Definitely far better than the average person Old Pete didn't say anything, just drank slowly, just a few sips of half a cup, and he drank for a few minutes.
Qin Yi was not impatient.
The old man acted more professionally.
The more confident he becomes, the later fermentation and maturation steps of the wine will be left to him.
After all, he can't stay in the vineyard for a long time, and the fermentation cycle of authentic wine is two to four weeks, and maturation means brewing aroma in oak barrels, which also takes a period of time.
He can't stay here forever.
"Sir, what kind of wine is this?"
Old Pete finally finished the drink, sat up straight and asked, with a rather excited expression.
"This is the best wine I have ever drunk.
Those high-end works are as good as this wine."
In comparison, it should be thrown into the trash can.”
"I said, this is the fruit wine I brewed, do you believe it?"
Old God Qin Yi was lying on the sofa, looking at old Peter with a smile.
"Mr. brewed the wine."
Old Pete was stunned, a little unexpected.
The old guy shook his head and sighed: "This is really unbelievable.
Sorry, I mean, I thought there were only old men like me.
Only then can such a fine wine be brewed.”
Qin Yi shrugged his shoulders and didn't care.
Believe it or not, he brewed it himself.
If he wanted to drink it, he had to ask for it.
Suddenly, Old Peter remembered the purpose of Qin Yi's visit this time, and asked with some expectation: "So, sir, are you planning to brew wine of this quality this time?"
“Of course, that’s what I bought the vineyard for.”
"Oh, God, is a new world-class wine about to be born?
Or is it under my nose in the vineyard where I have worked all my life?"
Old Pete danced with great anticipation.
Now he already somewhat believes in Qin Yi's winemaking technology. , otherwise who would joke about this kind of thing, unless they want to become a laughing stock in the wine industry "Would you like another drink, Old Pete?"
Qin Yi asked him, holding up half a bottle of fruit wine in his hand.
"Of course, of course sir, I want to thank you, otherwise I'm afraid I will never be able to drink this kind of wine in my life."
"I won't be able to stay for a few days.
The later fermentation and maturation have to be controlled by you.
If you keep an eye on this batch of wine, you will have endless amounts of wine to drink from now on."
"I" Old Pete, who was about to pour wine into his mouth, hesitated after listening to Qin Yi's words.
He was a little unsure.
With so many varieties of wine that may be of high quality, if he messed up, he wouldn't be able to compensate by killing him.
Get up "You only need to judge its taste and aroma.
No other operations are required.
Remember, taste and aroma," Qin Yi instructed seriously.
Taste and aroma Old Pete muttered a few words, and then he nodded hesitantly, "Yes, sir, I remember, and I will report to you as soon as there is any situation."
"Old Pete, if you succeed this time, you will be considered to have participated in the brewing of this fine wine.
When this kind of wine becomes famous all over the world, you will also become famous, and maybe even go down in history."
Qin Yi felt that he should fool this old man.

Maybe this would make him more interested.
When brewing, he would definitely operate in strict accordance with his own requirements.
Sure enough, Old Pete suddenly became excited and asked in disbelief: "Really, sir, I can really leave a name in history."
Qin Yi smiled and nodded without saying a word, but this expression gave Old Pete a lot of confidence.
If the wine produced can really reach one-fifth, no, one-tenth of the wine in the cup, then it will be the best wine.
It's worth his while After he finished the fruit wine in the cup, Qin Yi went upstairs and called Sousa and Angel down.
After some introductions, they came to the fermentation area dozens of meters away.
This batch of grapes were all here, and the screening had been completed. , The preparation work for breaking the skin can enter the skin soaking and fermentation stages at any time.
Qin Yi and the other two followed Old Pete to visit the production workshop.
Then, he asked Old Pete to arrange for workers to load the prepared grapes into the fermentation tanks.
After that, he returned to the winery with Sousa and Angel.
Old Pete was confused, the boss was making wine like this Don’t you need any ratios, personal operations, secret recipes or anything like that?
But he just murmured a few words in his heart.
He knew very well that if he completed the tasks assigned to him by Qin Yi, he would have done his job well, and he did not need to take care of other things.
Of course there is a secret recipe.
At night, Qin Yi came to the fermentation workshop alone.
Then, he added a drop of spiritual spring water to 70% of the fermentation tower, five drops to 25% of the fermentation tower, and added 5 drops to the remaining 50% of the fermentation tower.
Add ten drops to each.
This makes Qin Yi extremely distressed.
Every drop of this is precious.
It is rich in pure spiritual energy.
He has done experiments at the ranch.
One drop can be diluted into hundreds of bottles, and the concentration of spiritual energy is no lower than that of fruit wine.
After he finished his work, he patted the fermentation tower and waited a few months to taste it.
Since then, the main purpose of coming to the vineyard this time has been completed.
