Biggest rule I break is probably one of accumulation, having more wine in my collection than my current consumption habits can keep up with. At some point the collection will age past it’s prime before it is consumed. Yet somehow knowing that I’m breaking this rule doesn’t stop me from purchasing more bottles that seem interesting… 🤷🏻♂️

I rarely spit at a tasting. I assess the wines being poured with the intention of buying and only taste a small handful. For example, last week I was at a Rhone house and had no interest in tasting their rose, cab from a lot on the property etc. I tasted three of their syrahs and a grenache, then made my purchases. Plus, after about 10 wines my palette is almost shot and subtleties betwtween wines begin to fade, sort of like tasting 10 IPAs in a row.

Decanting on the table is better than decanting on a guest, which i just did for the first time ever this last week. As to breaking rules, i open sparkling with a little pop for brunch, but not for dinner. At home i use a pinot noir glass for pretty much every wine i drink, even port which can get dangerous.

As a non wine-professional (although I’ve been pleasantly mistaken for one at tastings 😊) I never considered spitting to be a rule (of course it makes total sense for professionals except in the occasions you mentioned). I only attend limited tastings per day (getting to be fewer as I get older 😂), space them out, go with a full stomach, politely ask to have my BYOA when possible (i.e. bring my own little antipasti where there’s none), carefully pare down further from the flight to maximize my ‘quota’, and enjoy fully imbibing with a long enjoyable banter with the pourers or the vintners, which to me feels most natural at a wine tasting 😊 But what gets tough is when the pourers love my enthusiasm too much and start pouring wines not even on the flight 😂 perhaps a good problem to have? During winter I store outside in similar places as you and as it gets warmer I do take the refuge of fridge at times, closer to when I can use soon. These days I am trying not to store much either.

Funniest thing was drinking 2010 Petrus out of Tritan tumblers whilst out in the bush in Namibia. Cleaning decanters is a pet hate of mine too, so rarely decant as long as the wine has been standing up for 48 hrs. If not, I filter it. I don’t use Riedel decanters, prefer Lalique or an antique as much easier to clean.

Totally agree about cleaning the damned decanter. I have a lovely one but it's virtually impossible to clean properly. I made my peace with wine storage long ago. I simply don't have the space to store all of my wine in optimal conditions. A lot of it remains in boxes in the least used room in my house (which also contains much of my library). The temperature, whilst not perfect, is reasonably stable. My wife and I also have a property in Andalusia. It's a tiny whitewashed home in one of those pretty villages, 2 kilometres from the Mediterranean coast. I have a small but tasty collection there as well. I just have to improvise my storage and hope that the house, which is designed to moderate the temperature, does the rest. We can go eight months at a time between visits and I've got some old vintages which have been stored for years. I'm sure many would gasp at the storage conditions but I swear that I've never opened a bad bottle and it ages perfectly well.

Freezer? Yes, sometimes and I get paranoid too 🤣 so oftentimes I chill it for a while, then bring it to the fridge. Decanting? Doesn't happen to me too often, but I usually just pour the last glass for me and save my guests from those issues! Not spitting? Well, I've mostly been to informal tastings, but sometimes the wine is far too good and it hurts to spit it out! Storage? Not an issue! I don't usually have that much wine for it to become a problem 🥲 Loud popping? To be fair, I don't very much like the sound and/or the mess, so to me the nice sound is the discrete hiss!

5:46 Storage is tremendous for wine, specially whites. I wrap all my premium whites in dark cloth and plastic since whites spoil so much easier, sometimes in a matter of weeks. This is also the main reason why most of my whites I get straight from the producer into the cave as white wines on display in supermarkets can stay there for weeks. And not just whites: I've bought a red Pera Manca that was on those fancy horizontal displays on a Continent store and it was clearly subpar compared to the proper-stored counterparts. That's a 350€+ wine.

I never spit wine, but of course, I am never paid to drink it either. This seems to so unnatural to me. Not only the waste of wine, but trying to intelligently taste and describe 30+ different wines in the same day. I enjoy slowly sipping a glass or pairing it with food and don't think I've ever had more than 5 wines in day. I can drink 3 bottles of the same wine over a week and still be learning and tasting new things at the end. In some ways, your job seems like so much fun, but this would be difficult and I am not sure I'd enjoy it.

I think there could be a whole chapter written on enjoying wine in whisky glasses. They are easier to clean, mostly come without stems, break far less, and even if square, they are open enough to really inhale your wine and not jyst drink it. People in general also have far less accidents with such glasses, especially if you use a coffee table to enjoy your wine like i do. Stem wear on coffee tables is not too practical.

City Steading Brews on KZitem taught me the value of a good whisky glass for its universal appeal without ever saying it. Its a home brew channel that teaches how to brew most things. Think they are based in Florida. A suggestion is for you to do some filming with this channel to explore the whisky glass across many brewed recipes vastly different. Ive never seen a wine pro be humble enough to visit homebrewers and i think it would improve culture & exposure
