Why wake up before drinking red wine? What's the benefit of a red wine wake up

In the TV series, do you often see such a scene that you always wake up before drinking red wine? Do you know why you should sober up after drinking red wine? What's the benefit of sobering up?

Red wine has life. The tannins in the wine are oxidized very low before the bottle is opened. The wine flavor is sealed in the wine. It tastes sour and astringent, and the fruit flavor is light. The purpose of sobering up is to make red wine permeable, absorb oxygen, fully oxidize, release charming fragrance, reduce astringency, and make the taste soft and mellow.

Because red wine belongs to fermented wine, in the process of long-term storage in the bottle, a small amount of air enters through the oak plug, making a slow fermentation. The newly opened red wine often has some peculiar smell and miscellaneous taste, which affects the taste effect.

The aroma of wine usually takes some time to radiate clearly, so the people who are good at wine will put it into the big belly wine awakener for a medium period of time after opening the bottle as an example. The length depends on the 'Constitution' of the wine, especially for some red wine with complex taste and heavy tannins, which needs a long time to sober up. White wine generally takes a short time.

For young wine, the purpose of sobering up is to dispel the peculiar smell and miscellaneous taste, and oxidize with the air; for old wine, the purpose of sobering up is to make the mature and closed fragrance materials radiate through oxidation. The difference is that old wine may be more prone to 'cold' than young wine due to old age and infirmity, for example, old wine may be obviously too oxidized and acetic the next day after opening the bottle, while young wine can I am still healthy after three days. Generally, the sobering up time of old wine is shorter than that of young wine (but not absolutely), and that of heavy and strong liquor is longer than that of soft and clear liquor. As for strong liquor and expensive and rotten sweet liquor, it is better to spend a little time sobering up.
