Rumors about wine

Wine can be said to be one of the world's largest consumer groups of alcohol, which has a lot of knowledge worth learning, whether it is selling wine or drinking wine people, need to know this knowledge. Today, I briefly sorted out some essential wine knowledge for you to learn and exchange.









First, what is the best wine to drink?

Wine is not absolutely good to drink, only relative, different people, like the wine will be different, think that the good wine is not the same. Generally high-priced wine is the old world traditional process brewing, there is a good aging potential, the body structure is perfect, all aspects of the performance is very good, its high price has a certain reason.

But this does not mean that everyone likes to drink, radish greens have all, some people say how delicious the sea is, but some people are fond of a dish of dry radish, taste things vary from person to person, so there is no so-called best wine to drink in the world.

Second, what is tannin

Tannin is a phenolic substance, also known chemically as tannic acid, and its performance in the mouth is a dry feeling, mainly from the grape skin, grape seeds, grape stalks and other parts. Tannin is very important for wine, it is an important standard to measure the quality of a wine, but also an indispensable flavor of the entire wine structure.









Generally speaking, red wine has stronger tannins than white wine, tannic wine often has stronger aging potential, and oak barrel aging can bring a certain amount of tannin to the wine, while increasing the complexity and aging ability of the wine.

Third, should all wines be decanted

It is not that ordinary dining wine, light-bodied and fragrant wine generally do not need to sober up, and more white wine does not need to sober up. In addition, Old World wines generally require decanting, while New World wines require less decanting. With a certain age, rich and thick wine body wine is needed to sober up, the process of sober up is also to enjoy the wine, in different periods of different tastes, which is a wonderful process.

Fourth, what does the vintage on the bottle represent

Represents the harvest year of the grapes used to make this bottle of wine, which is an important standard to judge the quality of wine, such as 82 years Lafite is good, that is, 1982 Lafite grapes picked good quality. A good year depends on the specific conditions of the region, the main influencing factors are the weather, such as temperature, light, rain, etc., will affect the quality of the grapes, and ultimately will affect the quality of the wine. When all conditions are met to the desired standard, the resulting wine will naturally be of superior quality.

Fifth, what is the terroir of wine

Generally refers to the soil, geographical location, light time and other natural factors, that is, the regional characteristics of the wine flavor, such as Bordeaux, Burgundy and other well-known producing areas have their own terroir characteristics. Specific performance in the style of the wine body, some unique aroma, taste, etc., different regions, different years will have differences.

Sixth, what are the legs in wine

The phenomenon of hanging cups in wine is the appearance of wine flowing down from the wall of the cup in a columnar shape, the more full the general wine body, the higher the alcohol content, the more wine legs. Pour the wine into the glass and shake, and then there will be wine residue on the wall of the cup, forming a shape like a column of water, which is the phenomenon of hanging the cup, some people call it "wine tears".









Seventh, how long the wine can be stored after opening the bottle

Keep the bottle sealed in the refrigerator for about three days, and vacuum it for a week. Therefore, wine should be drunk as soon as possible after opening the bottle, because it will oxidize quickly after contact with the air, thereby losing its own unique charm. Especially for wines that are aged for a long time, they should be drunk once after opening the bottle, and if they continue to be stored, the original wonderful taste will be quickly lost.

Eighth, the difference between the old and new worlds of wine

The Old World wine is dominated by established European producers, such as France, Spain, Italy, etc., while the New World is dominated by new producers outside Europe, such as China, the United States, Chile, Australia, etc. The old world is brewed with traditional technology and pays attention to the characteristics of the locality; New World is brewed with modern techniques and has a variety of body styles.

The above is just a simple description, want to understand the wine more detailed, but also need to learn more systematically.
