10 WINE MISTAKES & How to AVOID THEM like a Master.

[@sanpavlos]

Another mistake: Saving that nice bottle for a special occasion that never comes. (I’m not thinking of world class cellars here) If you have a couple dozen “special” bottles tucked up in your closet, don’t hoard them waiting for the absolute perfect moment… the moment is now. Invite a friend or two and pop those corks!

[@siegbert_schnoesel]

Very true

[@Sam-nb1rm]

Happened to me once. They occupied quite a lot of space. I mean, if there’s a social occasion, just buy a wine. No need to store 🍷🍷🍷👍🏻

[@rickmurmurmur]

This 100%! If you open that special bottle, it automatically becomes that magical moment right?

[@eliasbram3710]

definitely. Once i stored a special beer (yeah, there are some beers that are meant to be aged before consumption) just to come home and find my father and his friend emptying it and complaining about the fact they dont like darker beers lol

My big wine mistake when I was younger was only drinking what other people liked. Researching and finding out what my own taste is really opened my eyes to the beauty of the wine world and made it not so intimidating. I even started a business of wine tasting because I hated how sommeliers would pour your glass and then walk away without any info or tasting notes.

[@JeanMi36]

I love how you’re not pedantic about wine, especially with your background and your title. When my friends think wine is something overly complicated and pedantic, I show them your stuff. Massive job, as always !

[@dkm2828]

Great topic as always. The two wine mistakes that are my pet peeve (1) not thinking that champagne IS wine. My sister often says “I never drink win; I only drink champagne”. The other end of the spectrum would only open champagne for special occasions. My advice: drink sparkling wine like you would drink any other white wine: everyday (e.g.,Prosecco), special occasions, aged/vintage, … and don’t forget the non-champagne bubblies (cava, franciacorta, …); they often offer amazing values. (2) Thinking that you can only drink premium wines with connaisseurs. I once advised a friend on buying an aged white burgundy (my definition of heaven), just released by the domaine. She did but does not want to drink it w/o me for fear of missing a heavenly experience. My advice: my dad often says “wine makes people happy”. once in a while, open an expensive vino and enjoy yourself with friends even if you cannot rattle off the 53 aromas that fancy wines critics have used to describe the wine. It’s like renting a Ferrari for a few hours and going for it. You may never appreciate the brilliance of the transmission or the genius of the chassis but I guarantee you will definitively have a huge smile on your face like I did recently. Bottom line: Don’t overthink, enjoy wine with friends and family, be happy, and leave the fancy words for wine pros and wine nerds like us

[@williamgechtman9287]

Definitely share great wines with friends regardless of level of "expertise." I have a close friend who knew nothing about wine so she was not be a wine snob. She knew no names. She did not like champagne she said, until she had 1982 Don Perignon. "I don't like champagne, but that's good!" She did not like "red wine," until she had several glasses of a 1990 Claude Dugat Gevrey-Chambertin Premiere Cru. White wine? Not really. Now she asks if I'm bringing any Joh. Jos. Prüm when I visit. ( I find JJ Prüm Spätlese wins over many "I don't like wine" folks). Definitely serve "great" wines to your friends, particularly those who "don't like wine." They may find they just don't like *bad* wine.

Warm red wine drives me bonkers. Restaurants in Dublin are inclined to serve red wines that are too warm. Great video Konstantin, thank you.

I went to a wine tasting recently and the temp outside was 30 degrees c and so the wine was way too warm and the alcohol really overshadowed the taste. I gave feedback saying that it would have been better to chill the red.

It fills up very quickly!

[@travioh]

Great video and key points :) Whether wine or food, your consumption preferences can only be made clear by broad sampling (feat. Bayesian updating)👍

[@maximmartynow8085]

When I first watched one of your videos, it was because I had to buy an expensive wine as a gift, I had never consumed any myself. But you got me interested, now, barely 8 months later, I'm the family's "wine expert". Though I only drink a glass or two every three weeks or so, your videos have greatly helped to gain experience quickly. Though I'm still young and my taste is rather sensitive, so I prefer smooth wines with fewer tannins. Merlot is usually my favourite, and since you made videos about a few popular varieties, maybe it is time for one about Merlot? In my opinion, it is a good choice for beginners like me, who prefer more mellow wines.

[@mcgie2002]

If you like smooth grape varieties like Merlot, you will also like Italian wines made from Sangiovese f.ex., or even more so the variety Carmenere which was saved by being exported to South America a few hundred years ago before the vines all died from a disease in Europe. Stay thirsty, as Konstantin says 😉

I have not read all the comments but one think I think is important is to taste the wine when it is first opened. Is it tight? Does it need to rest till the next day , is it posbily corked? DO you think it will pair with the dinner? See how it changes between the first sip when you have it with Dinner.

[@MysticDonBlair]

🍷 I recommend making your own wine as a way to really understand wine. Start easy with store bought juice and yeast. First see how easy it is to make, then try more advanced techniques.

[@hhallengren]

Timing Not all wines are intended for direct consumption - some need a bit of time to calm down and settle. This is a pretty common problem in the nordics (where they have an alcohol monopoly) - where there’s a very limited possibility to buy anything but the lates release from the vineyard. That resulted in me having a very perplex relationship to Nebbiolo. When I started to really get into wine Nebbiolo was the sweetheart of all sommeliers. And as I listened to a bunch of Wine podcasts I started to buy Nebbiolos in order to try to understand what the fuzz was all about. The problem was that as I was only able to get the lates release that probably needed a decade or three in order to straighten out. But as I didn’t know that at the time - I just kept buying more and more expensive bottles of Nebbiolo, because I though that I obviously was missing something, and kept being disappointed. 15 bottles later I gave up - I though that Nebbiolo probably wasn’t for me. Skip a head a few years and I was visiting a restaurant where I knew (and trusted) the sommelier and she told me that she had a nice bottle of Nebbiolo open and wondered if I wanted a sip - and it turned out that I had one of my best wine experiences from that bottle - it was just beautiful and perfectly mature. The problem was that all my previous attempts had all just been a bit premature.

[@herbert5758]

What a pleasure seeing your videos. I think you pretty much nailed it. For me the biggest challenge is to find out my own taste in wines. If you are just starting our on your journey it might be easier to follow other 'masters' advice, but the real goal is to find out what you enjoy. For that purpose you have to be open and try a lot of different wines from different regions and like you advised : Travel a lot and visit some wineries and talk to the winemakers and taste and taste and....

“Better to invest that money into the wine” Straight facts

[@herbert5758]

Nachschlag gefällig... ;-) one more thought comes to mind. Often it could be more helpful not to avoid some of those mistakes, but actually make the mistakes. The goal is not to avoid all mistakes, but actually learn from them. 'Wow that Spätburgunder really tastes different when it is a bit cooler...' But first, one must realize that a mistake has actually been made and not blame the Spätburgunder because I drank it at the wrong temperature. Anyway,... great to watch the video and enjoyed it very much. Could watch the Konstantin Baum Videos all day long...;-)

Hi Konstantin, choosing the real deal to go with a meal is an art for me. I bought many years ago in Capetown a very good food and wine pairing guide. It‘s not a bible but give you good ideas. E.g. for one of my favourite italian dish a Sauvignon Blanc is the perfect match. But which one?! Tropical line or herbaceous line??? So I have to try and try and try many different stiles from different countries; now I know which wine is the real deal🥳 Wine temperatur, I hate the discussion about an appropriate wine temperature in german restaurants especially for red wine, which is usually served way to warm. That hardly ever happens to me in Spain, Portugal, Italy…..

[@MsJavaWolf]

I think it's a mistake to drink extremely expensive wines too early in your wine journey. Life is too short to drink bad wine but if you are not familiar with Bordeaux, it could be a waste of money to dive straight into Chateau Lafitte because it would be hard to pick up all the subtleties of the wine. I would say, start with decent wines and only go for the very top ones, once you find a variety or region that you really like and understand.

[@einoware436]

Lot of wines have serving and storing instructions on the back label or at least on their website. RTFM people.

[@tomlafferty4393]

Bodegas Faustino is an example of a single brand using very different labels to market their various styles to different markets. They have a new "art" collection that looks good at a bar and is young and easy to drink, whereas the classic Gran Reserva it a traditional style label.

Excellent advice which I’m already following for many years. Lucky me 🥂🥂🥂🍷🍷🍷

[@solomonmengeu1003]

These are all great points, I think the most common one is serving red wine too warm and whites too cold. Of course this has a lot to do with the climate and weather where one lives, but it is something that both wine professionals and amateurs should take to heart. I remember reading somewhere that for assessing quality drinking wine at room temperature is good, as flaws or mistakes can't be hidden so easily. But for enjoyment and pleasure getting the temperature right is key. Getting out of one's comfort zone is also important as life can be so boring if we always stick to what we know and feel comfortable with. I have a question for everyone, how many of you are part of the 100 grapes club? Meaning how many of you have drink wines from 100 + cultivars/varieties? According to my Vivino I am at 92, hoping to push past that with two wine fairs in town this month and next. Stay thirsty, everyone. Zum Wohl!

Biggest mistake you missed is drinking wines at an appropriate time. Don't save a bottle for a special occasion years past the optimal drinking time. Do not buy a recent vintage port and open it right away. Many wines are sold ready to drink, but more and more, I see red wines especially sold that are better drank 5+ years in the future.

[@SteelyTheVan]

I’m curious, if you are to briefly chill a red wine before serving, but it may still need an hour or more to decant/carafe before serving … you are back to room temp. Should you decant/carafe in the refrigerator then take it out before serving? How do you recommend handling this?

[@AllanDC97]

decant first, put it back into the bottle and then fridge for 1 hour.

[@williamrobinson7435]

I once had the pleasure and honour to be given lunch by a certain v distinguished International musician, and we had a bottle of Batard Montrachet.. When they bought the wine, my host felt the bottle and said we should leave it in the sun for a bit, good advice, just like this video. If I wanted a bottle of decent white Burgundy I'd have to save up for 2 years first. Can you imagine doing this and then not getting the spacious smokiness that you pay for in a bottle of B. Montrachet? What a waste. Great vid! Nice one Konstantin, cheers! 🍷👍

[@Craigwdlr]

A small caller tour would be a great video 🙂

[@brienmiller1005]

Just one bone to pick. Of course you are correct that almost everyone, everywhere, serves wine at the wrong temperature. But going beyond that genera point is misleading. You should serve all wine at the temperature that is correct for each specific wine, and that temperature will depend as much on the specific wine as on whether it is red, white or other. Many quality white wines, (not overly oaked) will not come alive, as you say, unless, among other things, they reach something like "room temperature" which is itself not a constant. The point is that you have to taste and evaluate the temperature of the wine when you drink it. Fortunately, the key is practice, practice, practice.

[@Koby616]

Thanks god i fixed one of my mistakes. I sucribed 😅 thanks for tips

[@drmatthewhorkey]

Look I respect the hard work somms do but some of my least favorite food and wine pairing experiences have been at top notch restaurants. Nothing disappoints me more than paying for a nice dinner and the somm pushing their 'tasting menu' which usually consists of mid-range wines that they have to turn over. Whenever I go to nice restaurants, I choose the wine I want to drink and adjust food accordingly (also taking into account what the restaurant specializes in). For point ten, thanks a lot and I agree. I've been traveling around the wine world for seven years full-time. I know that I don't know everything in wine but it really irks me on trips when some other 'wine people' that do this part time try to talk down to me. I'm in the cellar and in the vineyards the whole year round, that education is PRICELESS. (sorry to get all high-horsey for a second).

[@Killerthomasinho]

You show Merkelbach wine in this video. Do you like their old school way to make riesling? And do you like their wines?

[@smokehousestu9614]

A wine mistake could be having preconceived ideas about a grape based on a previous experience. Eg I did not try Sauvignon Blanc for ages because I had a poor experience, too tart and too much vegetation. But now I see that many producers and countries especially New Zealand produce tropical flavour Sauvignons which is much more my taste. Do you think this is a natural progression via climate warming or man made I.e wine makers actively looking to adapt their wines in order to achieve a more popular flavour profile and therefore wider/larger audience? Anyhow Konstantin, absolutely love your videos, many thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge.👏

I'm a bit late to this site, but my comment is that most people I know buy wine locally, so, availability to locally available wines and access to local tasters for advice, no matter they're being a Master or not (take-it-or-leave it recommendations) are locally for the hoi-polloi of some help.

Agreed with the suggestion above. Bare in mind that warmer sparkling can be volatile and likely to bubble over if you are not careful.

[@michaelosborne9279]

If you get serious, then buying mostly en primeur has some advantages, as the better stuff will take longer to mature so your quality journey goes steadily upwards. But do splurge on the odd bottle of mature stuff so you know you'll like the EP stuff you're buying in 10 years when it's ready. Also do diversify your collection: your taste may change as you age and you may find you prefer different styles. And try and find some regions/countries you like that aren't yet crazy expensive. Like South Africa or Siciliy or Greece.
