Can I still drink wine that has been stored for 20 years?

What I want to say is of course you can drink it, otherwise why would we keep our national liquor Moutai that has been for many years? To look good? Definitely not, so I think old wine that has been stored for 20 years can still be drunk, and sometimes it will be more fragrant than ordinary wine, but the premise of all this is that the wine must be stored properly. I have been fortunate enough to drink 20-year-old wine several times. I will tell you about my experiences on those occasions and see if you can learn anything from my experience. One of the times was when I was in elementary school, I went to an uncle’s house to pay New Year greetings. Because it was a bit far away, my uncle was very happy and brought out his own good wine. I remember it was a bottle of Maotai.

I heard from my uncle that it seemed to be more than ten to twenty years ago. I am still very impressed. The wine was very fragrant. As soon as I opened the bottle, the whole house smelled of wine. Then my uncle gave me After pouring a small amount, it was spicy at first (after all, I am still a primary school student who doesn’t know what good wine is), but it was very fragrant in my mouth, and it lasted for a long time. The second time I was at my house, my uncle and my aunt came to my house as guests and brought a bottle of wine without any label. They said it was the sorghum wine from the production team at that time (it must have been 20 years ago). At the beginning I felt that the wine was very strong, but after drinking it, it was nothing, so I didn’t care. However, I felt very dizzy for half an hour. In the end, my dad, me, and my uncle didn’t finish the bottle. That wine, to be honest, I have a good capacity for drinking, and I can drink a pound of it if I want to (the highest record is one bottle plus one glass of Niulanshan Erguotou, although in the end I had someone else send it home), my uncle and my dad also It's not that bad, he's even better at drinking than me, but the three of us didn't finish a bottle of wine that day. One can imagine how powerful the wine was. The third time was at my uncle's house (after all, he had a lot of wine, so I covered my face with my hands), and the most recent time was during the Chinese New Year last year. I just took out a bottle of Jiannanchun.

(This is what it looks like, but the packaging of the bottle of wine is a bit weathered) It is no longer a whole bottle, some of it has evaporated. I took a special look at it and found that the production date was 1995 and the degree was over 50 degrees. Then we started pouring wine. Because I was already in college at the time, I was poured a glass directly. It was just a one-tael quilt. When I poured it, I could feel the stickiness of the wine. Because I was really quite young at that time, and I would often drink with people at home, so I could feel the quality of the wine. At that time, the wine gave me the feeling that it was smooth in the mouth, but very spicy (after all, the degree was there), but as a northerner, it was acceptable. After drinking it, I felt that it left a fragrance on my lips and teeth. It is really no exaggeration. . I originally wanted to have another drink, but unfortunately there are more wolves and less meat,,,, so I think 20-year-old wine is still drinkable, and it will probably taste even better, but sometimes it also depends on the quality of the wine. If it is not good in the first place, I don’t think the wine will taste that good (personal opinion, please forgive me if there are any deviations). But no matter how good the wine is, don’t be greedy!
