Believe its not for serious drinking....

Any of the New World wines will be ok...try South African...between i will recommend Red Wine rather than white for the occassion, more choice of combi with foods.

bro u into wine too???

welll i heard that there is a certain "grape" wine from French only come in during X'mas and quite sweet and popular...

anyone know the detail of this wine...

I am just an average FR (fish reefing) writer. If you like my FRs, please upz my points.

One wek is too long.

Consume within 3 days.

Anyway it doesnt take long or more than 2 people to finish up an entire bottle.

A week is still ok for stronger wines if you got a chiller. Yes, 'softer' wines will then need to be consume within several days. Rule of thumb, colder, opened wines age slower....but that doesn't mean you can chuck it into the freezer! lol

yup agree. . .

Get a wine chiller if u are a serious drinker.

Do not place it in ur normal kitchen chiller bcuz u will be opening/closing the chiller like 10-15 times a day. ur wine will spoil faster than u noe.

If u just wanna to store abt 16 bottles, might wan to look at Farfalla brand at Carrefurre.... There sells below $200. i got mine there..... :yeah:

Bro acidjazz is right to say that open wine best to consume not more than 3 days. and try not keep in the fridge for too long as the temp between the fridge and wine chiller is different. :D Wine best stored at 16-18 degree.

Why u wanna keep? wine is like wxmxn, you gotta finish when you open it, you can't keep it (the best parallel i can draw).

Wine is like a woman. The older it gets, the better it is.

Invest in a wine chiller.

thanks guys for the wine keeping tips. will bear in mind to finish a bottle of wine within 3 days.

Not too sure about the wine & women part... "The older it gets, the better it is" and "you gotta finish when you open it, you can't keep it" ... interesting... :lol: ... this christmas I will be having wine with young women.. so best of both world? ;)

So if my wine can't finish within a day, I still get a chance to invite those young women for a second round the next night to finish the wine. :lol::lol:

CHEERS!

Not really. People keep wines because of the vintage. Certain climatic conditions during certain years will give wines of a certain region a certain characteristics thats different from the previous batches.

WInes hardly bottle aged nowadays. Mostly barrel aged. The reason is due to the reaction and the flavors imparted from the oak/maple barrel the wines are kept in. Thus the longer its kept, the stronger the flavor as more layers developed in the 'so called' bouquet and body.

In the bottle... No flavor ma.

My best theory, Buy it. DRink it.

Unless its some really rare wines which u cant get on the market often enuff or if u order bulk from vineyards abroad...

Travy knows his wine ! You are right that the aging process is in the barrel, once you bottled it, its for consumption. People in SRC REALLY knows enjoyment, fishes, reefing, holidaying, wine drinking, appreciating the opposite ######, truly epicureans !

      SECURING YOUR CRYPTO ASSETS WITH MUYERN TRUST HACKER

      The whole thing commenced in early 2019 when I made my first significant investment in Bitcoin. Bitcoin's price was booming, so I invested my whole life savings of $400,000 in the cryptocurrency, intending to make a fortune. I saw my Bitcoin's value rise for months until I had approximately $1 million in cryptocurrency assets. I tried to sell my Bitcoin on an exchange to cash out and realize my earnings. I was horrified to see that it was empty! Hackers have gotten access and taken every satoshi. After the initial shock wore off, I started frantically researching recovery options. That's when I found MUYERN TRUST HACKER, a highly-regarded cryptocurrency recovery service. Their forensic experts traced the hack back to an exploit in my wallet's code. Even though the thieves tried to cover their tracks, MUYERN TRUST HACKER's tech wizards were able to pinpoint the destination wallets that received my stolen crypto. I could scarcely believe it when I logged back into my newly secured wallet and saw my balance restored. Thanks to MUYERN TRUST HACKER's tireless efforts, I recouped nearly every satoshi of my hard-earned crypto assets. My story proves that even in the face of catastrophic theft, hope and recovery are possible with the help of true experts. I say a big thanks to MUYERN TRUST HACKER and you can also get this good-hearted work for yourself. (Te legr am: muyerntrusthackertech ) also on ( M a il; muyerntrusted(at) mail-me (dot)c o m )
