"Going
for wines", according to tradition
and to text of our culture, is from
ancient times, one of most ancient
customs, and it is maintained today
too; the reason of its permanency
is something more than the simple
and pure rechearch of a goood glass
of wine or of a trip into the country.
Before taking our wines into consideration,
we want to give some small advice
to whom, who want to have a wines'
reserve in its wine cellar for its
taste and for that of its guests.
keep your wines bottles always laid
down, so that cork is wet and always
elhastic. The ideal wine cellar is
dark and cool in summer and winter
with a good rate of umidity. To avoid
that labels deteriorate for humidity,
wrap bottle in paper tissue. It is
not always necessary to uncork red
wines many hours before drinking:
oldest wines, above all, can feel
the effect of a too long oxygenation.
So, we advice to drink, if possible,
a bottle in a time, if it is not possible,
put remained wine in a smallest bottle
and cork; the real enemy of wine is
oxygen! When you just open bottle,
smell cork: if it smells of cork wine
could be compromised; if it has not
bad odour, wine will be excellent.
