To open a bottle of wine flawlessly, we follow a number of key steps that preserve the quality of the wine and enhance the tasting experience:
- we begin by carefully inspecting the bottle to make sure the capsule is intact and free of signs of tampering, a sign of the wine's authenticity and quality;
- once this step is completed, we select a high-quality corkscrew with a well-sharpened spiral to reduce the risk of damaging the cork or dropping fragments into the wine;
- place the corkscrew in the center of the cork and slowly turn clockwise-this process requires patience;
- once the spiral of the corkscrew has gone completely through the cork, we gently pull upward: the goal is to get the cork out with a gentle hiss, without splashing or damage to the cork. We keep the bottle stable throughout the process, avoiding sudden movements that could spill the wine or cause splashing.
These carefully and thoughtfully executed steps make opening a bottle of wine a rewarding and respectful experience for the wine contained within.
