Thanks for watching Luke. I'm glad you are enjoying the videos and learning a bit in the process. The wine world can be overwhelming so I created a playlist called "The Basics". That group of videos sets the foundation to future learning. The topics can be a bit dry but necessary as we refer to these defined terms through out the 76+ videos. I drop new videos every Tuesday so...new one coming soon.

im drinking wine form 1997 it says on the bottle right now and WOW its so sweet and the taste is UNBELIEVABLE. ive never tasted a wine like this. i swear i took two sips and i can already feel something, could be placebo, could not be, i dont think it is bc this feels pretty good wow 1997 wine hell yeah dude. the bottle says SIMI Chardonnay Sonoma County, i dont know anything about aging alcohol obviously im just learning but wow if anyone has heard if this bottle i listed let me know.. and 1997? is that too old? who knows... im asking you all lol, it tastes and feels great after two sips, very weird for a heavy weight drinker like myself.

During the Covid 19 pandemic I took on the hobby of wine making. The first batch is a Cabernet, then came small 30 bottle batches of Pinot Noir, Shiraz, an “old vine” Merlot, and finally, a Bordeaux. Now at 6 months from the first bottlings, I opened a bottle of Pinot. It’s not nearly as dry or complex as I had hoped, and your comments lead me to believe it won’t actually necessarily improve with age. With that said, it will likely be at least another few months before I open another bottle for tasting progress or devolution. Six months is obviously too brief to call aging. But I now wonder if any of my wines are worthy of real aging. My money so far is on a Private Reserve Languedoc Bordeaux. This new hobby may be the best thing to come from this pandemic. Thanks for the informative video. I’ve subscribed. Cheers!

What was your ending specific gravity on the Pinot? I make wine, too, but only whites. I tried reds, but they came no where near what I am used to. I found most homemade red wines can age up to 3 years (5 years max if good juice was sourced). I have tried my reds from bottleing day up to 5 years. From my experience, the wine did get a little better with age (up to around year 2-3). After that, it just held. The homeade stuff can carry decent acid, but the tannins and overall structure to age just isn't there.

Great video, thanks for sharing. Question, do you think conventional wine cellar units (I have a Cuisinart for example) are sufficient for storing wine for semi-long term aging?

@obi-wine-kenobi 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Brandon: I think you will be fine with that unit. The only concern is lack of humidity. In low humidity corks can shrink causing potential leakage and oxidation. That would be the only risk. I’m sure you will be fine. Dave

Moonshine gets smoother flavor over time so that's where that time=strength comes from, it is easy to get drunk on & you forget you drank a quart

@obi-wine-kenobi 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Ben: Thank you for tuning into my channel and for your comments. Spirits age very differently than wine. Because if the higher alcohol content a spirit is locked in a state of flavor unless influenced by something like a.cask. Wine is more if a “living” organism that is sensitive to heat, light, age, and vibration. I agree with you in the potency. I had some delicious examples of moonshine in my trips to Eastern Kentucky. Amazing stuff and exceptional tradition and craftsmanship. Cheers, Dave.

Great info, thank you. This might sound like a stupid question, but do you age the wine in a bottle with a cork? Or is there some other way?

@obi-wine-kenobi 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you for watching. When aging wine, always store the wine in a cool, dark place with the wine on its side. This allows the wine to contact the back of the cork, causing it to swell and providing a good seal, keeping oxygen out.

Great video. How long did you need to stand this bottle upright for sediment to settle. Is it usual for aged wine (15 years or so) to be cloudy? Thank you.

@obi-wine-kenobi 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Rick: thanks for tuning in to my channel. To answer your questions, usually 24 hours is sufficient to settle sediment. Aged wine should be crystal clear unless it has been shook up and the sediment is allowed to re-integrate into the wine. Hope that helps. Dave

Nice video! But that is quite late to be drinking the Pichon; 5-10 years earlier would have been better, and I would be surprised if it had not declined significantly since then. I also would suggest (and the viewer might want to know) that decanting an older wine like that is inadvisable since it will flatten it even further. Younger, more tannic wines need to be decanted, whereas it could ruin a wine like this being drunk so late in the day. Just my 2c! Great choice in what to lay down though

@obi-wine-kenobi 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Peter, thanks for watching and you make some great points. I should have elaborated on decanting old wines. I purchased many Cru wines from the exceptional 1985 vintage in the early 90's. They were cellared correctly and produced a great drinking experience 30+ years later but the decanter would knock them flat in a hurry. I appreciate your watching and comments. Dave

Hi how would we determine if a wine has a good pedigree?

@obi-wine-kenobi 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching, Alejandro. A wine with a good pedigree is one with a reputation of producing exceptional wines year-in-and-year-out. An example would be Mouton Rotheschild in Bordeaux, Silver Oak in California, Penfolds in Australia, etc.

@obi-wine-kenobi 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Pablo, thanks for watching. There are many machines that forceably age wines like airators, and decanters but the best way to age wine is simply to let it age. Wine is a living organism and over time it evolves magically.

@obi-wine-kenobi 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Daxx, thanks for tuning in to my channel. I appreciate it. The good thing about large format bottles is that they age very slowly Because of that, your 1972 bottle may be perfect right about now. Unfortunately, the only way to know is to pull the cork and sample it. Once that is done, you need to fid some friends and drink the whole bottle because it will not keep. Cheers!
