美国葡萄酒文化的诞生

As you walk through How Wine Became Modern, you see how wine is such an integral part of how we live. There's a wall displaying paint colors that either use the word wine or are wine-inspired colors. One of the cooler installations is a wall of wine, showing a wide range of label art. You'll certainly recognize some labels, like Fat Bastard, which pick up on current culture and use it to sell wine. You choose wines by the labels don't you?
当你走在“葡萄酒如何发展成现代”的展会中，你就会明白葡萄酒如何成为我们生活的一个主要部分。还有一面墙展示酒或与酒有关颜色的调料。冷却装置之一是一面酒墙，展示许多不同的商标艺术。当然你会认得一些商标，像Fat Bastard，是在现行文化中得到了解并用来卖酒。你通过商标选择葡萄酒，不是吗？

The exhibit covers winery architecture, wine glass design, including some that are totally impractical, and all sorts of publications on wine -- magazines, comics, books and TV shows. There is a clip from the famous 60 Minutes report that red wine is good for your heart. Boy did that cause a mad rush on red wine and help push us into a stronger wine culture.
该展会包含了酒厂建筑风格，酒杯设计，包括一些完全不切实际的东西和所有与酒有关的出版物——杂志，漫画，书和电视节目。有一个是从著名的《60分钟》报道中剪辑出来的节目，报道说红酒有利于心脏。男孩的确促使人们对红酒的疯狂，把我们推向一个更强的葡萄酒文化。

Then there's the smell wall, where you can sniff a few wines that have a distinct aroma. It's not actually wine in the glass globes, but liquid mixtures that deliver the scent when you put your nose in the funnel and squeeze the rubber ball. Cat pee in wine? Oh yes, that's a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Fresh strawberries? Has to be White Zinfandel -- which has arguably played a big roll in our wine culture by getting many people to try this slightly sweet and easy to quaff wine.
还有一面味墙，在这里你可以闻到一些具有独特香味的葡萄酒。玻璃杯中不是真正的葡萄酒，而是当你把鼻子凑到漏斗并挤压橡皮球后发出来的混合液体的味道。猫在酒里小便的味道？是的，那是新西兰的白苏维浓。新鲜草莓的味道？则是白仙芬黛——可以说它对我们的葡萄酒文化发挥了重要作用，使很多人尝试这种微甜的又容易多喝的葡萄酒。
