Trillionaire's Slice of Life
Chapter 910

Chapter 910: Chapter 600: The Surrender of the Bolan Family Chapter 910: Chapter 600: The Surrender of the Bolan Family Compared to the world-renowned ten great wineries of France, Bolan Winery in Romantic Country seemed much more low-profile.

For the vast majority of ordinary people in the world, the information they’ve heard or come across through various channels never fails to show that most of the world’s top ten wineries are located in Romantic Country.

If someone is fortunate enough to taste a glass of top-quality red wine from one of the ten great wineries, it would be an honor worthy of boasting for a lifetime.

However, for those true top-tier tycoons, whether it is the Romantique Winery from the ten great wineries or the Phoenix Tree Winery enjoyed by the entire world, they seem somewhat unworthy when compared to Bolan Winery.

The renown of Bolan Winery is not as widespread as the global top ten wineries, of course, this is just in the perception of the general public.

In fact, in the eyes of the world’s top tycoons, Bolan Winery is absolutely one that can be ranked in the top three globally.

The entire winery was one of the top five classified as Premier Grand Cru in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, on par with Lafite Winery, Mouton Winery, Haut-Brion Winery, and Margaux Winery.

...

Bolan Winery was chosen as the world’s second-best vineyard by the “London International Vintners Exchange (Liv-ex)” in 2011 and was deeply favored by top-tier tycoons.

A high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon gives Bolan wines rich tannins and deep color; when young, their color is the darkest among all the first growths.

After long-term cellaring, the wines tend to be intense and powerful, with aromas of blackcurrant and cedarwood, supported by their rich, ripe tannins.

The best vintages of Bolan wines can be kept for a long time and are best tasted at least after 20 years.

The owner of Bolan Winery is a pure noble, hereditary count, and by the time it reached Bolan Audiel, it had been handed down for thirteen generations.

Yet, what truly makes Bolan Winery drool-worthy isn’t the top-notch wines priced at tens or even hundreds of thousands of US dollars in the winery, but half a bottle of cognac from two hundred years ago.

Fifty years ago, the twelfth-generation heir of Bolan Winery discovered five bottles of pure cognac with a century of history in an ancient cellar.

These liquors had once soared across the world on ships and then were cellared there for a hundred years.

When these drinks were discovered that year, as the owner, the winery owner took great care to store them, despite the many people who came later, drawn by their reputation.

However, to get a taste of this elixir steeped in over a hundred years of history, one had to obtain the approval of the Bolan’s owner.

Moreover, the winery stipulated that each person could only drink a small glass at most.

These five bottles of century-old cognac brought great honor to Bolan Winery.

Many tycoons came to the winery in person just to taste the exquisite alcohol.

Over time, the list of distinguished guests and political figures received by Bolan Winery was countless.

Among them were tycoons like the godfather of luxury goods, Edward, the Prince of Luxembourg, and more.

Despite valuing every glass of wine, after fifty years of consumption, the originally preserved five bottles of exquisite wine had dwindled to just the last half bottle, and with the passage of time, this remaining half bottle had now acquired a whole two hundred years of historical significance.

That is to say, the half bottle of cognac stored in Bolan Winery is the only one left in the world, an elixir with two hundred years of profound history.

Once it’s gone, there will be no other such liquors left in the entire world.

Therefore, in recent years, this half bottle of cognac has always been kept in the cellar and was never taken out again.

Even though many distinguished leaders have visited during this time, wanting to taste the exquisite wine, they were all turned away by the winery owner.

The reason Bolan Winery could become one of the world’s top wineries and a place in the hearts of countless top tycoons akin to a paradise was precisely because of the two hundred-year-old exquisite cognac stored in the winery—it was this half bottle that gave the entire winery its noble and mysterious aura.

And once the last half bottle of cognac was consumed, it’s very likely that Bolan Winery might no longer shine.

So now, even if some top tycoons worth tens or even hundreds of billions came to the winery personally seeking wine, they ultimately left empty-handed.

However, today, the atmosphere at Bolan Winery was exceptionally solemn.

Winery owner Bolan Audiel sat with a troubled look in the main hall.

In front of him, his two sons and sole daughter, who served as senior managers at the winery, were present.

Naturally, the cause of concern for Bolan Audiel, who held a noble title and had assets in the hundreds of billions, was due to that half bottle of cognac.

“Father, the cognac is the foundation of our Bolan Winery.

If we simply surrender the last half bottle, our greatest advantage will be utterly depleted.

Compared to those established French wineries, our Bolan Winery doesn’t have too many advantages.

If we lose the cognac, I fear…!”

As Bolan Audiel’s eldest son and also the chief advisor to the winery, Bolan Kodi was the first to voice his concerns.

Bolan Winery is not one of the world’s top ten wineries; it is only famous in the circle of the rich.

Some have even said that without the cognac, Bolan Winery is just a second-rate winery.

Naturally, as one of the future heirs to the winery, the expression on Bolan Kodi’s face appeared extremely solemn.

“But…

that Mr.

Chu from Mysterious Huaguo has specifically asked for our cognac.

If we refuse him…”
