How to open a bottle of wine the right way

[@CarlosLopez-hi3pk]

Thanks to you I opened my first bottle of wine the right way you the man

[@Intovino]

Thanks for the feedback

[@dustinjavaherian9893]

Even though you did rotate the wine bottle slowly I still would recommend to cut the foil without rotating it. You do that by scoring the front and then then the back then rotating your wrist around the bottle

[@kimkane135]

Love the instructions with everything, all very helpful, Thanks!

[@franciscogutierrez818]

I didnt know how to use a waiters friend corkscrew so I watched this video and I was completely blown away when he opened the knife on the end of it. I immediately checked if mine had one and it did!

[@toots239]

You missed a very important reminder at the end. You should never place the opposite side of the cork to close the bottle with the leftover wine. It will definitely contaminate it. Use a wine stopper instead if you're having difficulty putting it back the initial way.

[@soulmate-winekey]

确实是这样。

[@6-Iron]

Grab the foil with one hand, twist and pull it straight off the bottle. No cutter needed. Game changer.

[@EggNog1]

Absolutely my friend. I enjoy decanting or just opening a new bottle as much as tasting.

[@chrispysaid]

This dude has like 4 different accents

[@Alexander-dt8sk]

I want to see a video of someone inserting a corkscrew into a screw top! 😂

[@amadogon]

If the cork smells like other smell other than fresh wine, why is that due? Is it due to the cork being of bad quality? Failure to cork the bottle correctly? Or what other possible reason for this happening?

[@michal0297]

If the wine is very old and wasn't stored properly.

[@starseer3209]

All this time I've had this opener and didn't know how to use it 😂

[@erinkelnhofer7922]

Thank you! Your such a great Teacher!

[@Intovino]

Erin Kelnhofer thanks for your kind words

[@thomaszaccone3960]

Should you re-seal thr wine with a cool or one of those synthetic plastic bungs???

[@Brendan-CoachingStar]

Excellent guide!

[@Ana-cz5bm]

thanks bestie first time i ever successfully opened a bottle of wine myself😘

[@timcapell]

I’m still learning on wine. I always just poked through through the foil…dumb i know now. Lol Curious what happens by me doing that? Contaminates??

[@alytemple2168]

I was wondering what are some ways to tell if a bottle of wine that has been open has gone bad?

[@hrabia]

I use tip of corkscrew to cut the foil, works best and doesnt need more knives

[@Soonhun]

Hello, I had a question. I have absolutely no sense of smell. Is there another way to check the cork besides smelling?

[@jjdiaz2]

Just check to see if the discoloration on the cork goes all the way through to the top of the cork. If it does, then the wine may have been exposed to air. Also, I was told that smelling the cork was a terrible way to tell if the wine is corked. That's also why the sommelier always pours a small tasting first. You tast the wine to see if it's corked.

[@karthik829]

Wish I saw this way early. Very helpful

[@Intovino]

Glad it was helpful!

[@mealziscool]

thanks daddy cxxxx

[@CMoore8539]

Is vinegar a normal smell for red wine. You’d be amazed at how many people have no idea how to open a bottle of wine correctly. Thank you so much!♥️

[@rohena360]

No, its not a regular smell. It means its bad.

[@brette6854]

3:36 for everyone that just wants to know how to open the fuckin thing.

[@sullivanspapa1505]

How about temperature to drink wines?

[@ВасильевичФёдор]

Мне нравится дегустация вин, спасибо❤

[@misterjosephfloyd]

This would never work in fine dining. It's completely wrong for that type of service. Never spin the bottle, keep the label facing the guest. As for the worm, never on the table..never spinning the bottle.

[@p1zzal0ver61]

thats the way i was taught from a master sommelier. (had the luck to take a course for free from him)

[@horstklink9455]

misterjosephfloyd you’re correct!

[@katherineprice2940]

Thank you

[@THATGUYTALKSMOVIES]

But wait, you forgot to show us the proper technique to open the twist-top bottle! 😜 lmao. Great vid as always for those needing to know. I've always known how to open a bottle of wine BUT...did learn that I was indeed cutting the foil in the wrong place. Small detail but, important. On a related note, I totally prefer a traditional, waiter's friend corkscrew, and the joy of opening a bottle by hand. Those vacuum sucking, Rabbit gizmos simply don't do it for me. lol.

[@soulmate-winekey]

你是懂酒的😊

[@carlaorellana5712]

Thanks! I was struggling, your a master!

[@vegasrenie]

I used a corkscrew on a screwcap many, many years ago! Screwcaps were new, so it wasn't even in the realm of possibility that there would be anything other than good 'ol cork! Still embarrassed. lol

[@BesteUSAF]

As someone else mentioned, if you breath in to the palm of your hand and then wrap it around the foil many times the entire foil will come off. Would that be considered acceptable?

[@sullivanspapa1505]

How many times?

[@charlesharrison4953]

Of course not you savage !!! How dare you even think of doing this you uncivilized barbarian !!! Just kidding 🤣 what ever works for you my friend.

[@frlouiegoad4087]

Many times "I" hold foil and it just slips off the neck of the bottle with a upward twist. No cutting. They are not always snug tight.

[@sharonsmith5377]

They’re in Cornwall atm I believe I don’t know where they normally live as I’m new but I’m not watching this shit and just gossiping so if anyone can tell me they’re normal area I will be advising social services to watch these videos

[@ElementsMMA]

You don’t need to cut the foil, just squeeze it and you can normally just pull it off. That’s how I always do it.

[@nthdegree1269]

I do that as well, but I think there's an aesthetic reason they are doing it the other way.

[@ethanbennink7680]

That’s fine at home but not if you’re serving a table at a restaurant

[@ElementsMMA]

@@ethanbennink7680 you can also just shimmy the label up an eighth of an inch and cleanly slice through it, it’s much quicker and easier that way if you want to keep the foil around the neck of the bottle

[@tylerjackson8476]

Right on man, thank you

[@smellllvin]

Thank you 🙏

[@sullivanspapa1505]

It’s assumed that One never tries to hold/keep/store a bottle of wine for future use but what if someone wanted to do this; just asking for a friend?

[@coldface8989]

how do i open a bottle so that a cork shoots out and hits somebody in the head, how come i wasnt taught this (opening a bottle of wine) in high school

[@poopoopeepeeyummyumm6814]

Thats champagne my guy.

[@AstiWines]

Hysterical!! Any Sparkling Wine, Champagne, Prosecco. As they say in the movie, "A Christmas Story" ...... Hey kid, be careful you'll shoot your eye out!!"

[@lynedilim1839]

Thank you for sharing👍

[@charlesharrison4953]

Didn't know you needed an engineering degree to attempt this !! Btw if I do it this way will I be better than most people ??

[@K1ck1992]

For people who want to drink fast, just put the tool in without removing the foil first and just jank it out. easy peasy

[@MoonSoul00]

Thanks a lot

[@allex475]

Perfect! thank you so much

[@SeekingTruthAnd]

Wonderful lecture ! I just succeeded opening the bottle by following your instruction.

[@christinah.7477]

This is crazy! He opens the foil by twisting the whole bottle, and puts the "worm" in the cork with the bottle on the table. This isn't wine service, it's opening a bottle of wine!

[@Sebastian_Niedermeier]

This video mentioned that cutting the capsule in the middle of the bulk is the perfect way to go, though it's hard. I've heard this before and keep wondering about the origin of this tradition. Sadly, no one I ask seems to be able to provide any context and there are basically no references online. The best I could figure out so far is that it probably originated in France. I'd be glad if you could give me any information you might have :-)

[@christiaan81music]

Sebastian Niedermeier in the middle of the bulk? What do you mean?

[@Intovino]

Hi Sebastian, It dates back from lead capsules and not cutting at top ensures there is no contact between the wine and the lead which is actually poisonous (although the contact would be far from poisoning you). It is more hygienic.

[@aevanism]

Was your thumb got injured ? Take care Monsigneur

[@Grapexciting]

Nicely explained!

[@alexmagana6133]

Geezus bunch of hater comments! Who cares if the bottle is spinning or he smells the cork! The bottle is open right?

I normally just remove the foil completely, is that considered uncouth or something?!

[@Intovino]

Hi! The foil should remain on the neck. It is a key part of the presentation of the wine. Hope that helps!

[@darkshines800]

I'll be sure to remember when I'm trying to be well turned-out :) Thanks!

[@ElementsMMA]

@@darkshines800 I never cut the foil, it’s a waste of time. You don’t need to cut it, generally just squeeze the foil and pull it off in one piece. That’s how I always remove it.

You don't need much. I'm a small woman, and I can do it. Just use the right technique

I agree with Anca820. Not much strength. It's more about leverage...... and practice. Lots of practice. I enjoy the practice!!

[@christiaan81music]

Pls don't smell the cork.. Smell the wine.. Much more accurate to notice wine faults! Never understood this. At best check the condition of the cork with long cellared (aged) wines.. (for natural cork that is).

[@Intovino]

Hey Christian, thanks for your reply. The cork is normally not supposed to actually smell of cork; if it does, it's a clear indication of a corked wine.

[@AstiWines]

Hey Christiaan, the tradition of smelling the cork began in restaurants. The Sommelier would open the bottle, pour it into a little cup, "Tastevin" (very old school and done primarily in the winery) and check the cork. It's less cumbersome and more "polite" to have the customer smell the cork than hand the bottle to them for them to assess the wine.

[@christiaan81music]

@@Intovino sometimes the TCA smell is quite faint. You could miss it by only judging the cork

[@paulcostley6800]

there is no correct way of doing something.

[@Intovino]

Maybe correct way isn't the right term... Maybe there is a better way, or just A way. If you are in most European restaurants, the way to eat is with a fork and a knife. Of course there are other ways, but the best way is with the fork in your left hand and a knife in your right. The same with opening a bottle of wine. Also, there are some reasons for each of the steps described.

[@paulcostley6800]

Intovino. I was kind of joking. The point is the best way of doing something is all based on opinion.
