这个6月万欧兰俱乐部可说是非常欢乐：上下两期阿根廷品酒会，包括陆江老师的阿根廷概况讲座、趣味拍卖以及重头戏36款阿根廷葡萄酒的盲品打分. 其中我们第一期 (6月14日) 的主题是阿根廷主力产区门多萨 (产量占全国产量的70%) 的品鉴, 共17款酒. 第二期（6月22日）则旨在感受阿根廷的地域多样性和品种多样性, 共19款酒, 品种包括白葡萄Torrontes，红葡萄黑皮诺（Pinot Noir），名厂顶级马尔贝克（Malbec），波尔多调配，赤霞珠（Cabernet Sauvignon）和西拉（Syrah）等。
The whole June Wineonline club is immersed in a joyful atmosphere with two Argentina tastings. The whole precedure included Lu Jiang’s Argentina Wine Lecture, entertained auction and 36 wines blind tasting. In the first tasting on 14th June we focused on Mendoza region（which takes a 70% of the whole national output）and tasted 17 bottles。In the second round （22nd, June）we were trying to feel and learn the diversity of Argentina regions and virieties。We tasted 19 selected bottles in all including Torrontes，Pinot Noir，Malbec，Bordeaux Blend，100% Cabernet Sauvignon，Syrah and so on。
这36款都是在中国市场上能够找到，具有代表性的中高端水准的葡萄酒。我们在惊讶阿根廷实力不俗，风格多样的同时，也以不受干扰的盲品形式给出了自己心目中合适的分数。 我们的会员虽非专家，但都是有一定理论基础的葡萄酒爱好者以及一些从业者，相信这是一份能够真正代表大众审美的打分结果。
The 36 models mentioned above are representatives of Argentina middle-to-high-end wines and can be all found on the Chinese market. Surprised by their strong performance and diverse styles, meanwhile we managed to score the product appropriately by blind tasting. Our members, though not experts, are wine lovers and practitioners with theoretical basis of wine knowledge. We believe this scoring would be a true representative of the public aesthetic.
除个别氧化外，这组阿根廷的酒整体品质可说非常不错, 平均得分都在86以上，作出取舍也十分艰难。我们的统计方式是将陆江老师的打分和俱乐部会员的投票相结合，最终统计出五款平均得分在90以上的第一梯队。具体如下, 排名不分先后：
Except one bottle oxidized，the whole Argentina wine group behaves impressively with an average score above 86. It’s hard for you to point a favorite one.
