🤣what a prick! His (assistant) is probably his neighbor. Brah I've have several bottles of Rothschild & no one was a prick about it. It was average for a 38 yo wine. Always let down by those labels. 🤣🤣🤣 prick His Camara man is probably his son🤣 Obviously that was a cheap bottle stored in horrible conditions. You're fresh out of the local wine class.

You guys don't deserve the wine! Holding the flash light at the wrong part of the bottle; holding the glass wrongly, your descriptions of the nose and wine made me laugh!

You do not use that TOY to open a 47 year old bottle of Mouton. And you "decanter" is a joke. If you can afford the wine, you can afford the proper tool!

there is this thing called an Ah-So it makes corks like that easy. Also, I have had a well stored 70 that had way less ullage than that, and it was nice, but is an unimpressive vintage. Smokey would not be a descriptor I would use. The camera man nailed it, with "quite thin".

Couple of fundamental errors. But ok. Wonder how it tasted. Definitely a different style decanter. Maybe a wine that age would benefit just pouring from bottle.

You need a more inviting intro. But it’s very cool to have documented this for everyone to enjoy. Great job 🍷👍🏻 you might need an Ah-So wine opener for bottles like this. Recently tested one for a video here on YT, for wonders on old wines. Cheers 🥂

@MarlboroughBlenheim16 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the video. Just a couple of points. You are using a spirits decanter, which lacks the flat bottom to enable the wine properly to oxidise. Here, most of the wine is not in contact with the air. Also, why didn’t you let it breathe for several hours? It’s vital with this wine to let it settle and breath as it’s more than 40 years old. The flavours simply won’t develop and you got maybe 20% of the full flavour. The smokey taste you refer to is the result of a lack of oxygen in the wine.
@ODJames15 жыл бұрын
G'Day mate, just my input here. I've found that the younger the wine (maybe 5 years or under) decanting the wine for several hours does open the wine up significantly. However, with older vintages, especially one as old as this bottle, it's already been exposed to a decent amount of oxygen. The oldest wine I've personally drank was 21 years old, and the wine really only needed 15 minutes to open up like I wanted it to. The smokey taste he mentioned wouldn't have been due to the lack of oxygen btw, I've heard of many wines of this age developing smokey, tobacco characteristics. On the decanter end though... I completely agree with you haha

Thank you for the comment. I can see you are very experienced with wine and about how to get the full taste and enjoyment from it. I would love to hear more about what else I could do to make a vintage wine taste nicer. Once again thank you for your advice and comment👍

Several hours? No. That would be too long for a wine this age. 30 to 45 minutes would be more appropriate. Also, you don't know what he did with the rest of the bottle. Why not taste and see how it does before and after decanting? It's people like you who give wine a bad name and make people afraid to try things. If you're going to be a snob, at least do your research and be a proper snob. I thought this was a lovely video.

@@JBJones66 no, not for a mouton Rothschild - these wines are still very very powerful even at this age. For a delicate burgundy, I agree. For this, which is a cab sauv heavy blend it needs longer without a doubt. That’s what the wine guides all say.
