o Special stoppers that keep wine sparking and Champagne
bubbling for one or two days after opening, can be bought at
most good wine shops.
o When stored correctly, white wines can keep well for up to two
years. Full bodied reds will age well for ten years and dessert
wines will age well for up to twenty years.
o When you buy a bottle of wine, you should transfer it to a
suitable storage location immediately (if you are not going to
store it in your wine cooler).
o Cheaper bottles of wine will not age as well as more expensive
ones.
o To make the most of the bouquet and taste of your wine, never
fill more than half a glass at a time. It will also help if the shape
of your wine glass is appropriate for your wine. The size and
shape of your wine glass’s bowl will determine the intensity and
complexity of the bouquet. The stem should be long enough to
allow you to avoid hand contact with the bowl of the glass and
should be tulip-shaped or tapered at the top.
