今年是有史以來規模最大的Decanter World Wine Awards（DWWA），由於國際專家監督的嚴格評審過程，該獎項已經成為世界上規模最大、最具影響力的葡萄酒大賽。

DWWA has a track record of shining a spotlight on exciting, under-the-radar wines all over the wine world, too – and 2021 proved no exception.
DWWA 也一直關注著葡萄酒世界中令人興奮、鮮為人知的葡萄酒——事實證明，2021 年也不例外。
DWWA 2021: A year of firsts
DWWA 2021：首創之年
DWWA 2021 included a first Best in Show medal for a ‘Vin Jaune’ – or ‘yellow wine’ – a speciality of the Jura region of eastern France. The winning wine was Domaine Berthet-Bondet, Château-Chalon 2013, made from 100% Savagnin.
DWWA 2021 包括法國東部侏羅地區特產“Vin Jaune”或“黃酒”的首個最佳展示獎。獲獎葡萄酒是 2013 年 Château-Chalon 酒莊 Berthet-Bondet，由 100% Savagnin 釀製。
DWWA 2021 judges included in their tasting notes, “If you’ve never tried Vin Jaune, you couldn’t do better than begin with this 2013.
DWWA 2021 評委在他們的品酒筆記中寫道：“如果您從未嘗試過 Vin Jaune，那麼從 2013 年開始，您將做得更好。
“Pale but emphatically gold, it has aromas which evoke nuts, wild mushrooms, umami, yeast and cream, but in which some lingering sweetness of fruit survives, too (Savagnin for Vin Jaune is picked very ripe).”
“淡而強烈的金色，它的香氣讓人聯想到堅果、野生蘑菇、鮮味、酵母和奶油，但也有一些揮之不去的水果甜味（用於 Vin Jaune 的 Savagnin 採摘得非常成熟）。”
There was also success in Switzerland for the Savagnin grape variety, not to be confused with the similarly named Sauvignon Blanc.
Savagnin 葡萄品種在瑞士也取得了成功，不要與同名的長相思混淆。
Wine cooperative St. Jodern Kellerei in the Valais region already farms some of Europe’s highest vineyards, and it reached the summit of DWWA in 2021 after its ‘Heida Barrique’ 2019 won a Best in Show medal.
瓦萊州地區的葡萄酒合作社 St. Jodern Kellerei 已經種植了一些歐洲最高的葡萄園，並在其 2019 年的“Heida Barrique”獲得最佳展示獎後於 2021 年登上了 DWWA 的頂峰。
Judges said in their notes on the wine, “Heida is the name used in the high Valais (or Wallis) for Savagnin, and our judges were very impressed by the range and expressive uniqueness of Swiss Savagnin this year.”
評委在酒評中說：“Heida 是高瓦萊州（或瓦利斯）用於 Savagnin 的名稱，我們的評委對今年瑞士 Savagnin 的範圍和表現力的獨特性印象深刻。”
They added, “This is a refreshingly aromatic yet full-flavoured wine, striking and singular: a horn sounding in the clear Alpine air.”
他們補充說：“這是一款清新芳香但味道濃郁的葡萄酒，引人注目且獨特：在清澈的阿爾卑斯山空氣中吹響號角。”
DWWA 2021 also saw a first Best in Show medal for France’s Savoie region, awarded to a 100%
Roussanne white wine from Domaine Charles Gonnet for the 2020 vintage.
來自Domaine Charles Gonnet 的2020 年份Roussanne 白葡萄酒。
Friuli in north-east Italy made its debut in the DWWA Best in Show winners’ list, thanks to Muzic winery’s Stare Brajde ‘Collio’ 2019 white wine.
得益於 Muzic 酒莊的 Stare Brajde ‘Collio’ 2019 白葡萄酒，意大利東北部的弗留利首次出現在 DWWA 最佳展示獎獲獎名單中。
There were also two Golds for Ukraine, the first time the country has struck Gold at DWWA.
烏克蘭也獲得了兩枚金牌，這是該國首次在 DWWA 上獲得金牌。
Sarah Jane Evans, Co-Chair at DWWA 2021, said of the results, “You know that this is something that's been through a really rigorous judging process. We're not playing at judging here. This is blind tasting.
DWWA 2021 聯合主席莎拉·簡·埃文斯 (Sarah Jane Evans) 談到結果時說：“你知道，這是經過非常嚴格的評審過程的事情。我們不是在這裡評判。這是盲品。
We have absolutely no idea what the wines are and we're tasting them not only in panels together where we have to each discuss and think about them deeply, but then they go up to Regional Chairs who are experts in those countries.”
我們完全不知道這些葡萄酒是什麼，我們不僅要一起在小組中品嚐它們，我們每個人都必須深入討論和思考它們，然後他們還會上到這些國家的專家區域主席那裡。”
She added, “It's a very, very rigorous process, but it highlights fabulous wines at the end of it.”
她補充說：“這是一個非常非常嚴格的過程，但它在最後突出了美妙的葡萄酒。”
Andrew Jefford, also a DWWA Co-Chair, said, “DWWA is the world's leading wine competition. I'm absolutely thrilled to take part in it every year because having tasted in a number of other competitions I know how well it's organised, how carefully everything is done. So if you get a medal from DWWA it really is worth having and everybody respects it internationally. We get entries from every corner of the wine world, so it is as it were the closest you can get to a universal benchmark.”
DWWA 聯合主席 Andrew Jefford 說：“DWWA 是世界領先的葡萄酒競賽。我非常高興每年都參加它，因為在參加過許多其他比賽后，我知道它組織得多麼好，一切都做得多麼仔細。因此，如果您從 DWWA 獲得獎牌，那確實值得擁有，而且每個人都在國際上尊重它。我們收到來自葡萄酒世界各個角落的參賽作品，因此它是您可以獲得的最接近通用基準的作品。”

New Zealand is renowned for Sauvignon Blanc but it was Tohu’s ‘Whenua Matua’ Chardonnay 2018 that won a Best in Show medal at DWWA 2021. Chile’s La Causa, Cinsault-País-Carignan 2019 from Itata Valley also received this top accolade.

Elsewhere, Greece narrowly beat its strong performance at last year’s competition. A Greek Assyrtiko white wine won a Best in Show medal, and the country received six Platinum and 16 Gold medals at DWWA 2021 overall.
在其他地方，希臘在去年的比賽中以微弱優勢擊敗其強勁表現。 一款希臘 Assyrtiko 白葡萄酒獲得了最佳展示獎，該國在 2021 年 DWWA 上獲得了 6 枚白金獎和 16 枚金牌。

Sau triển lãm tranh đầu tay ‘Vùng Mơ' được giám tuyển bởi GốcCreation, Hứa Vĩ Văn trở lại với các tác phẩm, nguồn cảm hứng và chất liệu mới. Trong khuôn khổ chương trình nghệ thuật Art Resider nhằm cung cấp không gian thực hành, sáng tạo và trưng bày cho nghệ sĩ đa ngành, Hứa Vĩ Văn “lưu trú" tại không gian làm việc Toong và trực tiếp sáng tác, với chủ đề chính đến từ những suy tưởng về biển, lửa và tự do. 14 tác phẩm trong khuôn khổ triển lãm ‘Vùng Yên | Night Irene’ được trưng bày từ 07/05 đến hết ngày 10/06/2021, tại 188 Võ Thị Sáu. Mọi lợi nhuận từ việc bán tranh sẽ được quyên góp tới các chiến sĩ vùng biên giới, góp phần phòng chống đại dịch Covid-19.

\ Giới thiệu triển lãm:

Khởi đầu với tác phẩm tranh đa chất liệu về biển được lấy cảm hứng từ hòn đảo Santorini, Hy Lạp, triển lãm ‘Vùng Yên | Night Irene' liên tục được kiến tạo và tái tạo, với sự bổ sung các tác phẩm mới theo tiến trình sáng tác tự nhiên của nghệ sĩ. Toàn bộ triển lãm là một chiếc la bàn mà ở đó tọa độ là thế giới tâm thức và những xúc cảm chân thành của tác giả. Lần này, Hứa Vĩ Văn thử nghiệm với đa dạng chất liệu. Ở một số tác phẩm sử dụng màu acrylic, ốc và sao biển được gắn lên tranh với bột dính, keo và lớp phủ bóng nhằm khơi gợi cảm thức về biển. Ở những tác phẩm khác, anh lại thử nghiệm với hiệu ứng tranh sơn mài và ấn tượng về không gian lưu trú tại chính Toong Võ Thị Sáu.

Nhìn vào các tác phẩm, chúng ta có thể thấy sự biến chuyển về cảm xúc và cả tính thời sự. Ở những bức tranh về biển là sự hiện diện của trời, biển, đất. Trong đó, ốc và sao biển đại diện cho những sinh vật bình dị và vô danh, nhưng lại có vai trò lớn lao với thiên nhiên và sự sống bền vững của con người. Đặc biệt, khi vấn đề sao biển bị phá hoại bởi khách du lịch đang được dấy lên mạnh mẽ, các tác phẩm của ‘Vùng Yên’ phần nào trở thành lời gợi nhắc đậm chất thơ.

\ Từ thiện:

Toàn bộ lợi nhuận từ việc bán tranh trong khuôn khổ triển lãm ‘Vùng Yên' sẽ được dùng để cung cấp nhu yếu phẩm cho các chiến sĩ biên giới như khẩu trang, trà, cà phê, thực phẩm,..

Lưu ý: Không gian Toong Võ Thị Sáu hạn chế tối đa 20 khách thăm quan mỗi lượt. Chúng tôi sẽ cung cấp dung dịch sát khuẩn tay, khẩu trang và thực hiện đo thân nhiệt tại cửa. Áp dụng cho người đến xem và nhân viên hỗ trợ.

[English version]

After the debut painting exhibition ‘Dreamland' curated by GocCreation, Hua Vi Van returns with new artworks, inspirations, and materials. Within the framework of the Art Resider program, which aims to provide support and space for the practice and display of multidisciplinary artists, Hua Vi Van “resides” at Toong workspace in order to work on his paintings, drawing from the theme of sea, fire, and freedom. 14 artworks of the ‘Night Irene' exhibition will be on display from May 7 to June 10, 2021, at 188 Vo Thi Sau. All profits from the sale of paintings will be used to support Vietnamese soldiers in the border area, contributing to the prevention of the Covid-19 pandemic.

\ About the exhibition:

Starting with a mix-media painting inspired by the island of Santorini, Greece, the body of works that create ‘Night Irene' is constantly created and recreated, with the addition of new artworks following the natural progression of the artist. The entire exhibition is a compass whose coordinates are the artist's inner world and sincere emotions. This time, Hua Vi Van experiments with a variety of materials. In some artworks using acrylic colors, seashells and starfish are attached to the paintings with sticky powder, glue and glossy coating in order to evoke the impressions of the sea. In others, he experiments with lacquer painting effects, inspired by the experience of being at Toong Vo Thi Sau.

Looking at the works, we can see the change in emotions and even topicality. In the sea-inspired paintings, the world seems split into three parts: sky, sea, and earth, with seashells and starfish representing tiny and unknown creatures, which nonetheless play a great role in nature and sustainable human life. In particular, when the issue of starfish being destroyed by tourists is strongly raised, the artworks of 'Night Irene' can be viewed as timely reminders.

\ Charity:

All profits from the sale of paintings within the scope of ‘Night Irene' exhibition will be used to provide essentials for border soldiers such as masks, tea, coffee, food, etc.

Note: Toong Vo Thi Sau will allow a maximum of 20 visitors per turn. We will provide hand sanitizer, mask, and take the temperature at the door. Applied to all visitors and support staff.

\ Event information:

‘Night Irene’ Exhibition is part of the Art Resider program, curated by GocCreation, co-organized by Toong.

- Time of display: May 7th - June 10th, 2021

- Opening hour:
+ Mon - Fri: 8 AM - 8 PM

A Total War Saga: TROY
ซื้อเกมได้ที่ https://store.epicgames.com/legendauser/a-total-war-saga-troy

A Total War Saga: TROY is the first in the award-winning strategy series to focus on the Bronze-Age Mediterranean and the legendary twenty-year conflict between the kingdoms of Troy and Mycenaean Greece, known as the Trojan War.

Total War Saga: Troy is a strategy computer game developed by the Creative Assembly Sofia and published by Sega. It is part of the Total War Saga sub-series and will be released on August 13, 2020 on the Epic Games Store, then on Steam in Summer 2021. As part of the 12 month exclusivity promotional deal with Epic Games, Total War Saga: Troy will be free of charge for the first 24h of it's release.

The game is set during the Trojan War in the Bronze Age, taking place the furthest back in time the series has ever covered.

The Greek gods featured in Troy can influence the game in similar ways to their Homeric counterparts, with their influence spanning entire factions, rather than directly intervening on the battlefield. Gaining favour with the different gods requires players to invest time or sacrifice resources, but also provides various benefits as the game progresses.

Although there is little documentation of Bronze Age naval warfare, naval combat has been included in the form of island battles, inspired by that featured in Total War: Warhammer II – Curse of the Vampire Coast. The Greek god Poseidon will play a major role in these battles.


Hero versus hero combat has been implemented in Troy, wherein two fighting heroes will be given room by nearby units, creating a circular battle area and preventing other units from intervening. Some heroes have an active battle ability called Divine Challenge, which taunts opposing characters into one-on-one combat. Eight heroes are included in the game, such as the Greek champion- Achilles, and the Prince of Troy- Hector.

A Trojan horse mechanic plays a major role within the campaign, appearing in the campaign at specific moments, and providing significant bonuses to players should it be acted upon quickly enough.

Troy introduces a new multiple resource economy that reflects the advancing pre-monetary barter economy of the Bronze Age setting. The five different resources are food, wood, stone, bronze, and gold, which can be found within different regions to varying degrees of scarcity. Food and wood are used to recruit early game units and construct simple buildings, whereas more formidable structures will require stone, and higher tier units will require bronze. Gold is vital for trade due to its universal rarity.

The diplomacy system in Troy builds on that featured in Total War: Three Kingdoms, allowing you to appease allies, your enemies in their place, allowing the player to change the entire course of the Trojan war. Other new diplomatic features which are unique to Troy will also be introduced.
