Cleaning And Maintenance - Hoover HWCB 15 User Manual

Slight effervescence in still wine- this isn't really a problem with the way the
wine has been stored, but as a result of incomplete malolactic fermentation
before the wine was bottled. A good way to get rid of the effervescence is to
let the wine breathe. Alternatively you can use a bottle vacuum device, after
about five minutes the effervescence will vanish.
Sediment- this is not normally a problem, however both red and white wines
can produce sediment after a number of months in a bottle. The sediment
consists of tartrate crystals and is totally harmless. If anything the building of
sediment can be considered a good sign because it means that the wine was
not subjected to much (if any) filtering, meaning that the flavours and aromas
should be preserved better.
A good way to get around sediment (if it is a problem) is to stand the bottle
upright, the day before opening, so that the sediment can settle to the bottom
of the bottle.
You can also decant your wine; decanting will "open up" the flavour of both
young and old wines, but younger wines in particular. To decant, pour the
wine slowly and evenly into your decanter.
