FAQs
- What does wine Aeration mean?
Aeration literally means to add air or oxygen to wine. This is a process that has been followed for centuries, and wine aeration should be an integral part of your wine enjoyment.
- Why should you aerate your wine?
When you age wine, there is a complex chemical reaction that occurs between the sugars, alcohol and phenolic compounds. Over time the tannins break down creating a smoother aromatic and more drinkable wine, which is one key reason why older wines are more expensive. Aerating a young wine mimics the ageing process and the result will be a richer wine with enhanced flavors, and softer tannins.
