Sokol Blosser Wine Blog (#)

„Wine tends to age differently in larger bottles; because the mass is greater the wine tends to be more buffered from outside forces (like variations in temperature, vibration, and light). The chemical reactions that are responsible for the changes in the wine “ what we recognize as aging “ are slower and more consistent. Consequently, wines in larger bottles usually evolve more slowly and gracefully. A 1.5 liter bottle of “

„As a winemaker, we go to great effort to prevent oxygen from spoiling? the wine following fermentation. The cork has been the medium for years that allows for the slow transpiration of gasses to and from the wine bottle during aging. Cork has properties, like an oak barrel, that allow for a very slow and measurable exchange of gasses (CO2 out, and oxygen in) to and from the wine bottle ...“

„Here is an interesting winery in more ways than one. It™s hidden, historic, family owned, and along with barrels of aging wine, there are barrels of aging balsamic vinegar. Terraces is located on the Silverado Trail but tucked away from view. To find the winery, visitors need to know the address on Silverado to […]“

„I found it a bit too tannic and too big for my palate. I knew this wine would benefit from some aging, however, did not know it would do so well! When we release the Napa Cabernets, we typically claim the optimal drinking is 5 to 7 years when the fruit, tannin and oak are still well balanced. This wine today, 7 years later, is exceptional.“

„Unlike traditional Pinot Noir that is aged for months in oak barrels, Whole Cluster is fermented in special stainless steel tanks and then immediately bottled in glass. Without barrel aging, there is reduced tannin and dryness in the wine. But the real secret to this light and fruity wine is the process called "Carbonic Maceration".“

„What a great bottle of wine! Ten years was the perfect aging time on this wine since the tannins were still intact, but soft, the fruit was opulent and the oak, very subtle. If you have any of this wine around, open it and enjoy it before the end of the year. AND if you have any magnums, you are lucky!“

„Plus some top wines,such as Cabernets, Barolos or first growth Bordeaux, can be so aggressively tannic when they're young that they require aging.“

„Turning to the whiskys themselves, the introductory Legend (find this whisky) with eight years aging is easy drinking and a good value for $25. The Bowmore people even said it was OK serve this one on the rocks. But all I could think about mid-winter was a hot toddy.“
