Those big juicy grapes need to contain fungus called, Botrytis, otherwise known as Noble Rot.

它们就开始萎缩变干，也因此变得格外甜
The bunches are big and the berries are also big.

After the harvest, the infected grapes are pressed and fermented in wooden barrels.
采摘之后，将接种了真菌的葡萄放入木桶发酵

To rocks and fungus and sweet wine, cheers.
