Let’s uncork the mystery SPINELLI AIR CONDITIONING SPINELLI AIR CONDITIONING SPINELLI AIR CONDITIONING
surrounding decanting.
Why do we decant wine?
Many people decant to
simply separate wine from
sediment. The majority of
wine drinkers decant to
aerate the wine. Decanting
exposes wine to air, which
oxygenates the wine. In
this process a chemical reaction occurs that releases flavors
and aromas. Young wines that have tightly closed structures
open after decanting. With these young wines, you can decant
multiple times to expose the wine to more air. Even very
inexpensive wines taste measurably better after this process.
The basic definition of decanting is the process of
pouring the contents from one vessel into another. As simple
as it sounds, this part of the wine experience can be very
intimidating to many wine drinkers.
To begin, decant your bottle of wine just before serving
it. If it is a particularly tannic wine, such as Bordeaux or
Chateauneuf-du-Pape, two hours before is ideal. Wines that
I prefer to decant are: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet blends,
Syrah, and Syrah blends.
There are unlimited shapes, sizes, styles, and prices of
decanters to choose from. Some decanters look like a basic
glass pitcher while others are pieces of art unto themselves.
Experiment with different decanters and different wines to
find what you enjoy the most.
For me, I enjoy the ritual of pouring my glass of wine from
a beautiful decanter. Part of the fun of wine is creating the
ambiance for your special moment to relax
and enjoy.
~ Cheers.
