There are countless people buying wine daily, but what do they do with all of it? They definitely do not drink it all in one session; they store it. But storing wine is more complex than leaving it on the counter and calling it a day. Wine needs to be appropriately stored, depending on the type of wine and who you are as a drinker.    Many factors come into play when storing wine:  1. Temperature: Maintain stable temperature around 55°F  2. Humidity: 50-80%  3. Light Exposure: Store in cool and dark areas  4. Position: Lay the bottle flat on its side to reduce movement and keep the cork hydrated  5. Odors: Wine "breathes" through its cork, and any off-odors within the area can get into the bottle over time, ruining the flavor and aroma.    Of course, if you plan to drink your wine within a few days, simply storing it in the fridge is all you need.  .  .  .  #wine #education #italianwine #winestagram #vin #learning #winestorage #winefridge

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐧𝐞𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬 Dovelles have become a valuable solution for aging wines and spirits in neutral containers, such as stainless steel or concrete. Designed to integrate seamlessly into the beverage, Dovelles enhance the structure and aromatic complexity of the product, effectively replicating the traditional aging experience of new oak barrels.   When used with wines, Dovelles reveal the wine’s full aromatic and flavor potential, adding depth and harmony without requiring traditional barrel aging. This makes them ideal for winemakers who want to achieve oak-aged complexity while using large, neutral containers.   Dovelles also bring unique benefits to spirits like brandy, tequila, and rum. In brandy, they add a soft, balanced character with layers of dried fruit, chocolate, nuts, and spice, creating a rich and rounded profile. With tequila, Dovelles support the diffusion of flavors needed for "Reposado" quality, introducing nuances typically found with traditional barrel aging, but with enhanced efficiency in neutral containers. When aging rum, Dovelles impart notes of fruit, nuts, caramel, honey, and subtle spices, as well as a golden to dark amber color, depending on the toasting level.   Overall, Dovelles offer winemakers and distillers a practical, food-safe option to introduce the benefits of oak aging in neutral environments, allowing them to control flavor development, balance, and color without barrels.   #Bousinage #Dovelles #OakAging #NeutralContainers #WineAging #SpiritsAging #FlavorComplexity #OakAlternatives #Winemaking #Distilling #WineInnovation #Craftsmanship #CraftSpirits

🍷 Do you long for a richer and more complete experience with a good wine? Decanting may be the answer! Unlock the full potential of your wine with these simple steps along with our Secoli Ripasso. Decanting enhances the flavor and aroma, releasing notes of herbaceous spices.  First, what is a Decanter? A decanter is a vessel for separating sediment from liquids like wine.

A decanter  2. Your bottle of Secoli Ripasso #Bevmo  3. A clean cloth    Steps:  1️⃣ Uncork your Secoli Ripasso and wrap the neck with a clean cloth to catch any sediment.  2️⃣ Gently pour the wine into the decanter, allowing it to flow down the sides.  3️⃣ Let it breathe (sit) for 30 mins and enjoy!  .  🍴Want to take it up a notch? Pair your decanted wine with hearty meat dishes or rich cheeses. 🧀 Even better, try incorporating it into the recipes for added depth of flavor.  .  .   .  #Wine #ItalianWines #Education #Motivation #Marketing

1. Check the colour: Brownish hue in red or deep yellow/brownish straw hue in white means it's past its prime. Fizz in a non-sparkling wine signals second fermentation; it's time to dump it. 2. Smell test: Musty, moldy, or vinegar scents suggest spoilage. If it smells off, it's best to discard it. 3. Taste it: Enjoyable? Great! Note the aromatics. If it's vinegary or overly sour, it's spoiled. No fruit notes or a flat taste? You've let it sit for too long. 4. Storage matters: Warm bottles indicate poor storage. Invest in a wine fridge or opt for a cool, dry spot like a basement. Avoid the kitchen due to temperature fluctuations. Mastering the art of wine assessment is crucial. Check the colour, smell, and taste to ensure every sip is a delight. #krsmaestates #vineyard #winery #reserves #vino #winetasting #winetime #thekrsmaexperience #winelovers

Often times, salt is thought of as a monolith white crystal that most people can just describe as "tastes salty". But the differences are vast and nuanced. From crystal size, shape and chemical composition, salt is nuanced. Much like wine, the location and methods by which sea salt is harvested affects the flavor profile and ideal uses. How you use #Salt in your kitchen is a personal preference. But investing an hour or two in understanding various types of salt from #KosherSalt to your basic iodized #TableSalt (and even #FlakeSalts and #FlavoredSalts) and how to use them can be a game changer in improving your cooking skills. What's your stack rank of salts you keep on hand in your pantry? #SeaSaltSuperstore

"Transforming Simple Ingredients into Culinary Masterpieces" One of the most fulfilling challenges as a recipe developer is taking a single ingredient and making it the star of a meal. Today, let's talk about the versatility of cauliflower. Here’s my tip: Use a variety of techniques to highlight different flavors and textures. For example, with cauliflower, you can: 1.Roast it with olive oil and spices for a rich, caramelized flavor. 2.Puree it into a creamy, velvety soup. 3.Pickle it to add tangy and crunchy elements to your dishes. 4.Grill it as steaks for a smoky, hearty alternative. 5.Rice it for a light and healthy base or side. This approach not only showcases cauliflower’s versatility but also inspires creativity in the kitchen while maximizing its potential. What’s your favorite way to use cauliflower in your recipes? I’d love to hear your ideas! #RecipeDevelopment #CulinaryCreativity #KitchenInspiration

Fruity: Berries, apples, citrus – often indicating the grape variety. 2. Floral: Rose, violet, jasmine – adding elegance to the wine. 3. Spicy: Cinnamon, pepper, clove – giving depth and warmth. 4. Earthy: Forest floor, mushrooms, wet leaves – contributing to the wine’s complexity. 5. Herbaceous: Eucalyptus, mint, freshly cut grass – offering freshness and uniqueness. Next time you enjoy a glass, take a moment to explore and identify these aromas. Cheers to deepening our wine knowledge! 🍷 #WineAromas #WineEducation #WineTasting #PapillonSomm
