Friday, November 12, 2021 - Another year on for both of us. No change from my previous note. Nust glad still to be able to enjoy such a gem.
But the cork, the cork. An issue I find with all old corks, as does even Jancis Robinson I discover. It’s all about the tapered corks that the port industry pioneered . The lower wider part swells further through contact with the wine. The upper part gradually dries and becomes more friable. I know of no reliable technique to deal eith us apart from the fancy fiery tongs. I do what I can then push the residue into the bottle and decant quickly. Works well for mr.
