I have posted about these bottles before, they are designated to be toasted when the world is freed from the respective person.
The ribbons are printed on a labelmaker in the P-touch series from Brother, and have the following names:
- Trump
- Putin
- Orban
- Musk
In these shit times this is my little protest against terrible people.
Normally I warn people that saving wine for an occasion is a bad idea due to the fact that it doesn’t actually age in bottle save for champaigns and merlot but it looks like that’s wine you have so I’ll save you that speil.
Still though, saving bottles should only be done for something you can guarantee within 2 years for screw caps, and 5 for cork. After that the wine loses flavour. Champaign and merlot have a bit better shelf life and if kept right will age but will still degrade with enough time.
Guess I didn’t save you from my ramblings. Sorry for that.
Lastly, seems you’re storing that champain upside right. If you do that, the sandy grape solids and yeast will get mixed into the bottle. Upsode down, near or below freezing is the way to go. Unless that’s fake champaign thats really just sparkling wine in which case that’s not going to age well.
Hopefully.
I don’t particularly like champagne or wine, I only do this for the memes.
You seem to know about this though, would it be dangerous to drink champagne that has been stored standing up for more than 4 years?
Not dangerous, no, just likely unpleasant. It’ll be grainy and lose the top notes (prevelent flavours)
Though if drinking champagne is already unplesent absolutely nothings changed so full send my guy.
This is funny btw, sorry for the info dump
Yeah when I turned 18 we went through 3 bottles of champagne/sparkling wine before we got to one that was drinkable. Turns out if you store them too long they just go bad.
