Re: Storing dessert wine

Posted by Delirium on June 25, 2003 at 01:13:33:
Something I've heard recommended by several people: find (clean!) glass marbles, and fill up the bottle with these until the wine is at the original level, then simply recork it. This should be better than the vacu-vins, as they don't reduce the amount of air in the bottle by as much, and tend to leak over time. However, disturbing your wine by dropping glass marbles into it may have some negative effects; I can't really say. Perhaps try rolling them gently down the sides as the bottle is tilted.
