There are different sobering methods between new wine and old wine, and good wine must be drunk!

In the wine world, more experienced drinkers will say, sober up new wine and decant old wine. The brand LEESON red wine of Yuncang Winery shared that young wine needs to be fully exposed to the air to soften the quality of the wine through oxidation to make it mature and mellow. For old wine, stand upright for 2 days to settle before sobering up , then decant the residue in the wine, and pour the wine into the decanter very carefully in a brightly lit place. When the wine is slowly poured into the decanter along the wine wall, the cork should be covered immediately to prevent excessive oxidation, which will cause the wine to age and die.

So, what are the standard steps for sobering up?

Step 1: Let the bottle stand upright. Most wine is stored lying down, and the bottle should be allowed to stand upright before decanting. If it is new wine, it needs to stand upright for one day. If it is old wine, especially the old wine that is more than ten years old, it needs to stand upright for 5-10 days. In this way, the impurities in the wine can fully sink to the bottom of the bottle.

The second step: Prepare the utensils for sobering up. Generally, exquisite restaurants will have a set of traditional sobering utensils, which are empty bottle decanters, funnels, candles / filter paper, and ordinary restaurants generally only prepare empty bottle decanters.

Step 3: Open the bottle carefully. When opening the bottle, do not turn the bottle. If there is a candle, you can use the lit candle light source to confirm that the sediment at the bottom of the bottle has not spread. An optional long auger corkscrew can be used to pull the cork out completely.

Step 4: Change the bottle. Slowly pour the wine into a decanter with a filtering device, and observe carefully during the pouring process, carefully and slowly pour out the clear wine, and do not pour the cloudy sediment into the decanter.

Step 5: Control the time. It usually takes about 20 minutes to sober up in a conventional restaurant . If there is enough time, generally dry red wine needs to be sobered for 1-2 hours;
