Last night with dinner we had a red wine "made from Frontenac grapes, produced by whole berry fermentation and aged in French Oak".
The GF opened the bottle and directly poured us some wine. After a few tastes she asked my opinion. "Ehhh...", was my response, "it has somewhat of a funky taste to me."
After a few more tastes I read the label on the bottle and it says "Best if allowed to breathe for thirty minutes before drinking."
I hadn't really planned on having more due to the funky flavor. However, I decanted off the rest of the bottle and gave it the full 30 minutes. It went from "no more of that" to, "hey, that's not too bad, I'll have more".
Why?
