How to open a bottle wine

[@JSolisHD]

The reason why a sommelier is decanting the wine is when the bottle is older og age, he will decant it over a candle light into a caraffel. The candle light is to see through the bottle neck for impurities/residues (that had gathered on the bottom of a bottle) during the pour. Once or before he gets to the bottom of the wine bottle, while spotting the residues is closing in on the bottleneck, that's where he stops the decanting process, and voila. The wine is ready to drink. I work in Food & Beverage Business.

[@العقيدمعمرالقذافي-ح4ف]

what kind of residues are there

[@Robymigliaccio]

Thanks for your explanation

[@roviperezcruz2448]

Why did he not use a strainer? So it's much more effective than seeing thru light of the candle. Tia

@@roviperezcruz2448 it’s not as theatrical

[@Crossbow123]

There was a sticker around the bottleneck. I don't think a candle will help much with that.

dude prolly has some family business around wine, champagne, brandy or something like this and will proberly pass it on to his children when he gets older the same way his parents passed it on to him. NOT saying this is the case that he is a owner of some wine house but this is a typical thing for smaller houses... Teach them when they're young

[@joebigfatty]

@@vatozl0c0z I want to clarify something since this is actually my family, my dad does not have a family business about wine at all and my family is Italian, (I am actually in the video for a little bit at 1:31) but anyways I remember my dad showing me this video and saying that we made it in a KZbin video and I remember being very surprised and confused since I was so young. I remembered it and went to find it and now I see comments kind of insulting my father. His intentions aren’t to shower us or bore us with anything he was just trying to inform us which he likes to do with most things not just wine lmao, he loves for us to be informed on this history of things and how they work and I love it a lot. I know that you didn’t know all that but I wanted to provide some context lmao 👍

Oh yes 😊. It's about an old red wine! I did in practice in hotel school. The bottle must not be shaked... Waoo

[@burnthecandleatbothendz]

even if i had a $50k bottle ,id just drink it like a beer

[@youngkim5909]

Very well done, if I may offer some criticism: Candle should be lit before arriving at the table, usually the sommelier turns away from the table when tasting the wine, wine should be on a coaster when placed on the table and usually we ask whether the costumer would like the bottle and decanter at the table. But otherwise, very nice pour and steady hand.

[@cptmuska]

Or maybe he did it correctly...

[@sinceunati]

Does it really taste that much different doing all that?? For real..does it?

[@alexbenson6388]

Hmm you're right, but calling them "customers" took everything away from what you just said.

[@slopcrusher3482]

Againan Again it doesn’t taste different, what the poster is describing is more of a traditional thing instead of something that directly effects the taste

Never seen anyone drink the wine. I work in steak houses and we sell bottles worth $500 and up. If the costumer doesn’t like the wine we don’t go checking the wine. We over charge three times it’s original price so one customer complaining about a good bottle of wine isn’t worth the trouble of fighting this.

[@majorero2012]

Well, even when your restaurant do it that way, it doesn't mean it's the right way. It doesn't matter how expensive are the wines you sell. 3 times the retailer price it doesn't correspond to the right of changing the wine without criteria; It's just a matter of atmosphere and service

[@RR-cg2rq]

You seem uneducated

[@RR-cg2rq]

Hey, cat got your tongue? We're asking you questions.

[@supadopemex9245]

In my opinion, a steakhouse is much different from fine dining. Everything done is this video was proper etiquette and tasting a 20 year old bottle, perfectly acceptable. The price has nothing to do with it, just the age. This sommelier is not gonna be tasting a bottle of a 3 year old vintage of Opus One, which is probably priced at $500+ at a steakhouse.

[@MisterRightX]

ever considered that the wine can be corky?

[@helmiautoparts4357]

What candle for?

[@바니버니-o5v]

To check the segment inside the bottle

[@helmiautoparts4357]

바니버니 you mean if there’s segment inside the bottle it’s not valid to be served?

[@바니버니-o5v]

@@helmiautoparts4357 it doesn't matter if the segment is left in the bottle, but it shouldn't be served.

It's to make sure the bottle isn't "corked", i.e., spoiled. That is to make sure you get a refund if bottle is bad. :-) This is the norm.

[@MMYLDZ]

The first bit of the wine is used to wet the decanter and is not meant for the customer to drink. Also this way the sommelier can confirm the quality of the wine and that it hasn't gone bad.

[@zBMatt]

This is what you’re supposed to do with a vintage. Otherwise in its years of existence it may have gone bad due to a variety of reasons. Would you rather your multi-hundred dollar paying customer find out the wine went bad or your employee?

Gian Santiago it would appear that my simple opinion has triggered your pretentiousness. I'm eager to hear about how educated you are and how your experiences from your travels have made you less of an "ignoramus". Yet a simple comment I made tilted you? I travel and I have been around the world so I've seen my fair share of this so called culture. Funny thing is, I've wined and dined in similar establishments, but I can still call this Maarte because it's my opinion. Thanks for trying though. 🤝

@@GCS88 You're proving my point. Is this your first day on the internet? The fact that you had to comment meant you were and are triggered. Gusto mo kasing mag yabang. Na mas maalam ka. Let's not be like that. Just because you had a few cups of wine served by a sommelier (doubtful) and flew coach to a few foreign countries doesn't make you more enlightened. I learned a bit of culture from you. A pretentious prick in The Philippines is the same pretentious prick in (insert country).
