Perrin & Fils 2008 Rasteau L'Andeol - Part 3 (France)
Alright ... so here we are on the fourth night of this bottle being open and the Wine Shield is in the bottle (installed correctly?) - theory is that the Shield should protect the bottle from oxidation for longer than if the bottle was left unprotected. Truth is the wine has port like flavours and smells, which is a sign of oxidation. So did it protect the wine better? I'd have to say that my findings are really inconclusive on the matter ... one bottle does not a test make. I'm going to have to give it another go in the next couple of weeks, but this time I will have to open two bottles of wine so that I have a control bottle and one under the wine Shield, to see if it makes a difference; and I think I know just the bottles to do it with For now I wouldn't rush out and get Wine Shield unless you want to experiment with it as I am going to do.
