    However, another wine I shall definitely buy again is the one attached. A religious person might say it's like drinking angels' blood.:D

    I wasn't keen on it TBH; a bit rough....
    The chemistry of wine is complex and so just the fact of having the bottle opened for a day or so might have altered it.

    Having a wine open, letting it breathe, will definitely soften it. I'm a big fan of decanting wine weather its young or old. Nothing fancy, a plastic 1 litre jug and a plastic funnel (< €5 in any hardware shop!) just pour the wine into the jug and then back into the bottle using the funnel. Job done.
    The pouring is best done with wild abandon so you get as much oxygen as possible into it, although be careful going back into the funnel. On older wines you can hold back sediment too. Win Win.

    a young wine needs it, an old wine deserves it.
