STORING UNFINISHED BOTTLES

[Dick Peterson]

Hi Tom. Thanks for the support. Microwaves are such an obvious, gentle way to warm up a wine carefully that I'm always surprised that so few people are ready to accept it. I guess the wine industry has done such a good job of making wine an object of worship that most people just aren't willing to quickly accept something that sounds "too modern." At least 99% of the wine people I've suggested this to over the years poo-poo it. I'll bet you've had a similar experience. I used to judge wine each year at the International Wine & Spirits Competition at Ockley between about 1978 or 1979 and 1987. Did you judge there and did we meet? Sorry I can't remember in my old age. Dick Peterson
