Wine Decanting
Should wine be decanted?
Wines deposits sediment as a natural part of its agingprocess, some more than others. Decanting the wine can aid in separating the clear wine from the sediment. Decanting the wine also lets air into the wine giving it time to breathe as well as releasing the aromas and flavors, this is particularly useful for such red wines that are a little harsh.
Decanting old wines, just prior to serving, helps to ensure that the wine clarity and brilliance are not obscured by any sediment that may have built over time, when decanting wine it is best to pour slowly and avoid decanting the last ounce.
Decant young wines as much as several hours before they are served to give the wine a chance to breath, simulating a stage of development that might normally be acquired after years of aging, pour quickly, even up-ending the bottle – the idea is to expose the wine to air.
