Starting a wine cellar: the trick is finding wines that work for you
March 17, 2011
At least that’s how the joke goes. And there’s more than a grain of truth to it: When life revolves around immediate gratification, it’s hard to think about waiting five, 10, 15 years to drink a nice bottle of wine.
Commit to starting a cellar, say wine enthusiasts, and you won’t be sorry.
The roughly 5 percent of wines out there suited to aging — the best known being Bordeaux, Barolo, Barbaresco and white and red Burgundies — undergo a marvelous transformation as time passes and oxygen seeps through the cork: puckery tannins in big red wines soften, fruit flavors give way to subtle undertones of tobacco, leaves, wood, saddle leather and chocolate. Whites that seem too acidic when young can, with age, come into balance, revealing hints of apples and pears, nuts and buttered toast.
But salting away wine isn’t only about serious laying down; it’s also great to have a selection of drink-now wines at the ready, so you can always find the right bottle for you dinner or to take to a friend’s house. Plus you don’t have to remember what you like; it’s right in the cellar to remind you.
In either case, the trick is finding wines that work for you, But stashing away lots of wine isn’t only about serious laying down; it’s also great to have a selection of drink-now wines at the ready, so you can always find the right bottle for your dinner or to take to a friend’s house. Plus you don’t have to remember what you like; it’s right in the cellar to remind you.
In either case, the trick is finding wines that work for you, the fledgling collector, or you, the wine lover who wants a basement cache for drinking and enjoying on a moment’s notice.
