When Storing Wine..
Wine aids in the production and flow of gastric juices. This facilitates digestion by breaking down the food in the stomach quickly and effectively. For many, after the age of 50 our bodies do not produce enough hydrochloric acid that are needed for digestion. So many doctors, including my own, have suggested a glass or two of wine with a meal. Who am I to complain?
Learn the art of Wine Tasting.
Since its inception, wine has long been considered as one of the most popular and most well loved beverages.
Wine is an alcoholic drink that is manufactured through the process of fermentation, where the sugar content of the organic material from which the wine is made are usually grapes converted into alcohol by utilizing yeast.
With the complexity of producing wine, most of these alcoholic beverages are classified into many categories, depending on the style, vintage, vinification process, taste, and quality.
However, whatever type of wine being purchased, one of the greatest and the most important factors is that most wine lovers consider the way they are being stored. This is because a good class of wine is never too good enough if it is stored inappropriately. It is extremely important to store wines in proper places in order to preserve its flavor and richness.
There are many factors to be considered when storing wine. To know more, here is a list of some of the important factors that must be considered when storing wine.
1. Humidity
When storing wine, it is important to take note of the room?s humidity. This is because extreme humidity can gradually decrease the quality of the cork. When the cork is destroyed, the aroma or flavor of the wine is gradually dispensed.
The appropriate amount of humidity when storing wines ranges from 50% to 80%. However, the ideal humidity should fall on the 70% mark.
The idea here is that humidity doesn't directly affect the wine itself. The materials like the cork or cardboard boxes are the ones that acquire greater impact. Once destroyed, it can have an effect on the wine as they already allow some air or any particles that are exposed to the wine.
2. Temperature
Among all the many factors that must be considered when storing wine is temperature. This is because irregular and erratic temperature changes will greatly affect the overall quality of the wine. In most cases, wines age prematurely when exposed to unstable temperatures.
The ideal temperature when storing wine should range from 50? to 55? F.
3. Dimness or Level of Obscurity
Light will hastily age wine. Wine stored in clear bottles will age faster than those kept in colored bottles.
However, light can seep though colored bottles as well as clear. The direct effect of the ultraviolet rays of the sun will give the wine a distasteful odor and may eventually damage it.
Indeed, storage is extremely important in identifying the quality of wines. In fact, well-kept wines usually cost more. That is how important storage can be.
As of now, there is no such thing as a diet wine. Unfortunately, there is no getting away from the fact that wine contains calories and calories make you fat if you do not burn them up. A glass of white or red wine contains around 100 calories. Sweeter wines that contain residual sugar as well as alcohol have more calories.

Cote-Rotie - La Turque
The 1996 "La Turque" is an extremely rounded wine, with solid flavors but splendid balance. Like with all "La Turque's" the bouquet is ripe and full of deep, cooked-fruit aromas. Structured and strong, this vintage holds up as a fantastic example of a Rhone Syrah ... La Turque exhibits knock-out aromatics of licorice, tar, pepper, bacon fat, and black fruits. The wine is fat, velvety-textured, and full-bodied, with terrific fruit purity and intensity. Drink this multilayered, spectacular Cote Rotie during its first 15-17 years of age." - Robert Parker-OWC (Subject to availability) LTG96 LTG96

Energy drinks don't have the cachet of wine or coffee. There are no magazines, websites, or specialty stores to support your interest in sugary concoctions of taurine, guarana, ginseng and caffeine. On the other hand, analysts estimate energy drinks generate $10 billion in annual sales, with growth rates that far outstrip sodas, juice and water.
