Re: UPDATE: Auction purchase - wine beyond damaged
Except to empty the bottle to put into recycling. I’ve never seen dregs quite like this. Sediment is one thing, 2” (or roughly 100 -150 ml) of gelatinous sludge is remarkable. In a bottle opened two and a half weeks ago in wine that seem pretty far gone? Hardly remarkable at all. Nature don't stop.

I suspect at least part of that is bottle shock. Also, if you store a wine for 10 years, that it moved once in its infancy is unlikely to make a huge difference.

I don’t think sweetness is exactly the right word although I get where it comes from. Gloss, or polish, may be a better descriptor. Perhaps. I think of it as more obvious/forward fruit. The other issue is that (to my palate) many of the US wines tend to have much lower tannin, which makes the fruit...
