Opening Wine at Eleven Madison Park (ORIGINAL video)

Many have ripped off my video. This is the original with edits that I made. This is how all wine should be opened. Awesome experience at Eleven Madison park in New York City. They are always at the top of their game. There’s a reason why they were the number one restaurant in the world.

[@kheetodiet]

I posted this video to showcase an older tradition of opening a bottle of wine. Some have assumed correctly that they do this with the more expensive bottles. My intent wasn't to show that we're spending a lot of money. It was my first time experiencing this way of a wine opening, and I wanted to share so others can see how it's done.

In old bottles of wine, the cork gets dried out and brittle, they cut the top off the bottle so the broken cork doesn’t fall in.

"it has two filters" so you don't get any glass. Too bad they couldn't filter cork.

This is not an old bottle of wine. It’s a Chambolle Musigny, 2002 Vielles Vignes by Geantet Pansio. Sells for $98USD. 🤣😜

[@LuizOtavioZen]

@@cwtjps The reason they do that is to show the bottles are original and sealed, there was a scandal back in the day where a restaurant was rebottling the expensive wine bottles with boxed wine and selling as the original. If they break the bottle it creates the assumption that it was not rebottled because fixing glass always leaves a mark.

[@crimsonchips]

@@hejalllit’s not for the experience. I don’t blame you for not being unable to afford centuries old wine, but it’s because uncorking the bottle is almost impossible to do cleanly consistently. What they put it in after is a filter to strain out any glass shards that may have broken off. It also could be why they don’t sell it by the glass.

[@garthvater]

Incase you didn't know, that isn't just for show. Some bottles of wine are so old the cork can't be removed normally without it disintegrating. They use the extreme heat and cold to stress the glass and break it just above the bottom of the cork so that it opens perfectly every time. They then double strain it to remove any cork that's in the wine, they store the wine on its side to keep it in contact with the cork. And the giant container used to decant the wine into also isn't just for show either. It aerates the wine, which opens up and brings out the mellowed flavors gained from its age. I don't know anything about the bottle they opened in the video but it likely was 4 figures. Especially considering their 10 course meal is 365 per guest.

Very old wines, the cork tends to disintegrate when you use a regular cork screw opener and drops into the wine. So they use techniques like this to avoid many small bits of cork.

Nothing like drinking shards of glass with your wine.

[@yathinnavy]

Just to educate. The wine they are having is a Pinot noir from burgundy. The most expensive Pinot noir's come from Burgundy. He is using something a port tong which are used for opening very old wines, because over time the cork in the bottle usually softens making it break mid way and falling into the wine while opening so the tong helps cut the bottle right at the neck where the wine starts. He pours the wine through a fine filter to avoid cork pieces or wine sediments and usually the glass cut is smooth so there are no small pieces of glass. Btw that wine retails easily for 250 to 300 dollars

[@voeunsavothy508]

Only 300?

[@krisrap3828]

Or, he could just pull the cork out and if it does break, use that same "fine filter to avoid cork pieces" that you mentioned in your description. Also, what do you mean by "usually the glass cut is smooth"? Only "usually"? Other times it is not cut smooth and glass particles end up in the wine? Thanks for the info but people who would indulge in this sort of thing are not to be envied for their wealth but pitied for their stupidity.

[@yathinnavy]

@@krisrap3828 you are correct about the cork. Why I meant 'usually' is if the port tongs are not used properly it might chip the glass leading to small pieces going into the glass. but if done correctly as shown the glass is smooth and would not have small pieces of glass. Port tongs is a very traditional and old concept of opening old wines. this is nothing but an experience to guests who are passionate and enjoy these experiences. "envied for their wealth"' sure but stupid to do it, probably not.

[@nguyenminh-luongluc3218]
