微醺之城

This month CCTV-OUTLOOK comes to Australia. We are here for the wine. Sydney is the biggest city in Australia, and the economic, financial, transport, and tourist centre of the country. So we stop here first.

本月，CCTV發現之旅頻道來到澳大利亞。我們為葡萄酒而來。悉尼是澳大利亞第一大城市，是澳洲經濟、金融、航運和旅游中心，也是我們抵達的第一站。

Australia is a multi-cultural country with many immigrants, so they don't have many unique local cuisines. Their liquor-making techniques are imported from Europe. Local ingredients and foreign methods make a unique combination of the Australian style.

Australia is a young country with only less than 200 years of wine-making history, however, its unique climate and environment help make wine from this area popular among new-generation wine lovers.

Certainly, you can't enjoy good wine without good food. Here in Sydney, you can try all kinds of cuisines from different places in the world. Since we're here for the Australian wine, we fi rst try the local food.

The Sydney Seafood Market is the best place to enjoy delicious local food. Here you can pick out the seafood to cook on the spot.

Cooking seafood here is rather simple: eat raw, boil, deep fry, or barbecue it with curry and pepper. The most complicated way to cook it is to bake it with cheese.

The market opens at 4 am each day. Fishermen sell the seafood they catch by the shore, and the vendors in the market will buy what they need before selling it on to customers.

You can also pick up wine at these little stores in the seafood market. Usually white wine goes best with seafood, and red wine goes well with cheese. However, picking a wine that's suitable for your meal is not so simple: you have to not only take what you eat into consideration, but also pick a wine that's best to bring out the different fl avours. For example, the Barossa red wine goes perfect with cheese lobster.

澳大利亞是一個多元文化的移民國家，在飲食上，沒有自己獨創的菜系，釀酒技術也是從歐洲引進的。本地的原料，異鄉的方法，融合交匯成澳洲風格。

然而，盡管只有不到200年的釀酒史，但是因為得天獨厚的氣候和環境，這兒出產的葡萄酒迅速成為新生代喝酒人士的鐘愛。

美酒總是和美食相伴。我們為澳洲葡萄酒而來，所以先奔向澳洲的地道美食。悉尼海鮮市場，是能夠品嘗澳洲美食的勝地。人們在這里選購中意的食物，現場就可以加工制作。加工方式很簡單：生食、水煮、油炸或者加上咖喱辣椒等香料烤一下，最復雜的做法就是加些芝士焗制。

海鮮市場在早上4點就開張了，打魚歸來的漁民在岸邊售賣，海鮮市場的銷售商選購鋪貨，而后，食客們前來用餐。在海鮮市場的小店里，就可以選到喜歡的酒。通常來說，與海鮮相配的是白葡萄酒，而紅葡萄酒與奶香厚重的芝士也是極好的組合。選酒不僅要看食材，更要看菜式的口味。用來自巴羅薩的紅葡萄酒配芝士龍蝦，極其適合。
