The Chemistry of Wine Service
Beppi Crosariol has his Decanter column in the Globe and Mail’s Life section. Great perspectives and advice on wine, liquor and alcohol of all types. Over time, via his quasi-educational reporting any pedestrian alcoholic could be brought to full literacy. It this installment we learn the depths of what types of wine - grape or vintage, in what sequence and what temperature it is ideal to serve several them. For example, when and where you should serve a Chateau Mouton 1982. To paraphrase Beppi, don’t put an acoustic set on stage after a Metallica show. And apparently, it isn’t sacrilege to cool down a glass of wine with ice. (Pity he doesn’t go into advising the stemware or decanters for that matter.)
