I love the ending. So professional! An inspiration.

@Boskov01 2 года назад

2:03 There's a certain satisfaction when I hear the glass make that clear and loud TING when it cracks. Makes you wonder who came up with this idea to open a bottle of wine this way.

@betterthanthat25flo 9 лет назад

Amazing idea, l would never dreamed of something like this. Thanks for sharing! !

@ColonelBummleigh 3 года назад

Outstanding. 0:38 You had me interested with the word "Kit" there Ronan. Reminds me about Knightrider, and of course "Gucci kit".Very good.

@forrestwoods8599 12 лет назад

Well, I'll be darned. That is just too cool!

@iknowbest5034 3 года назад

This was awesome

@akeem77777 5 лет назад

That was cool, thank you!!

@br2266 2 года назад

Thank you!

@tariqalkhatib2248 9 лет назад

awesome well done

@EarlRausch 10 лет назад

Thanks for your explanation for the need of a light source, Once decanted how long will the port stay good with a glass stopper?

@anikokapornaki7264 6 лет назад

Amazing trick and super elegant presentation! I need to get a tong like that and a big feather. Do you think this trick can be transferred to other bottles of wine. I am not a port fan but this is a neat party trick, too. But as far as I could see from the video, the candle was not really needed this time.

@u140550 Год назад

I I know it is cleanly cracked, although that last step I’d do that not only for sediment; but just for my piece of mind to make sure there is no glass. I know my parents wouldn’t drink it if I don’t do that, but what a great trick.

@johnpalmer7858 9 лет назад

why do candle?

@vardor 6 лет назад

it's not really the heated tongs and the feather...it's the candle that did it all!!!!!

@formatcforcortex2465 6 лет назад

show business...

@Firstname137 6 лет назад

To look through the bottle when you're pouring. Inside the bottle there is sediment floating around, by being able to see it through the bottle you can leave it behind and not pour it out.

@mayanksharma-ms3gy 5 лет назад

To see the sediments that’s start gathering around the neck

@geridayao8924 Год назад

Sediment is not dirt, it is proof of it as organic not reconstituted wine and probably the healthiest part of the wine as oppose to digesting glass shreddings.

How to open a bottle of Vintage Port with a feather AND metal tongs AND fire.

@ColonelBummleigh 3 года назад

Bummer when you're banned from using metal tongs.

@clebercoelho4218 9 лет назад

Achei que ele ia fazer cócegas na garrafa até ela espirrar a rolha,kkkkk

@ShoorfLonelyLokly 9 лет назад

It's not just feather. You can clearly see you can not do that without another tool and a heater.

@raakeshmadoo9043 3 года назад

What about shards of glass falling into the bottle? Is this not dangerous???

@user-cg9yu4gx2q 3 года назад

If you notice he used kind of a filter when transfering the whine to another bottle, its unlikely any shard will fall, because this process works more like melting than breaking anything, its a clean cut, either way, when transfering the Port if there is any impurity from the cork or even a shard from the glass, it should stay in the filter. This is a legit and safe process

@sjc83 9 лет назад

why did you light the candle?

@TheGuggala 7 лет назад

Supposedly your supposed to use the light of the candle to look for sediment through the bottle as you are pouring the wine. But since he's using a cheese cloth to catch the sediment it is rather a redundant step.

@CabinFeverKris 10 лет назад

Does anyone know the name of the intro song?

@neelnaik7096 7 лет назад

Whats the point of lighting the candle?

@sorin990 9 лет назад

What is the song called ? :)

@aydinsito 9 лет назад

if you are using muslin while decanting bits from the cork shouldn't be a worry..neither candle needed

@KaidFN 7 лет назад

Your Funnel is not fancy.. Sad...

@Dafoodmaster 3 года назад

it's strange to me that yeast sediment in port is so thoroughly removed while in bottle fermenting beer it's often swished around to incorporate into the beer, or savored at the very end

@DerrillGuilbert 10 лет назад

Physics is fun.

@ICBMPIRATE2 9 лет назад

And the black candle??

@ICBMPIRATE2 9 лет назад

I now Know That the candle is to help you see when the sediment reaces the neck when pouring the bottle so you can leave it in the bottle, Thanks Alexander Armstrong!

@balasmj 5 лет назад

Because they had run out of white candles

@Veronica.John10-10 3 года назад

I'll buy the tongs and meet you there, lol, as long we can make a youtube video about opening it!! 🤓

@waltdee1986 5 лет назад

who is to say a tiny piece of glass didn't break into the bottle.

@toufichaddad6626 6 лет назад

He use the candle to see the sediment remaining in the bottle, and to make sure he's not pouring it into the decanter.

@redanapalm 3 года назад

No kidding

@enricocasari4246 2 года назад

The candel ? For what?

@michaeldodd3563 5 лет назад

Is the candle symbolic?

@teamthoth 5 лет назад

No. Some people don't filter their wine. You place your bottle between you and the candle as you pour it into the decanter and the light will show sediment gathering at the neck. You are pouring it in a way to not get the sediment in the decanter by trapping it where the neck opens and the candle let's you see it.

@NeilMcGrath 10 лет назад

that's the job

@neilmcdonald80 10 лет назад

Ill be over for a glass of port some evening

@NeilMcGrath 10 лет назад

Do boy. Just bring a bottle of port, a port tongs and a feather. I'll sort out the glass of iced water.

@neilmcdonald80 10 лет назад

Seem to have misplaced my port thongs..

@veritasnyx7760 7 лет назад

It's a bit overdone,but hey, rule of cool. Now I'm just trying to decide which is more impressive; this or sabrage. Also, I'd thought one would use the quill end of the feather. Guess not.

@hughm1383 6 лет назад

Those tongs weren't red hot.

@spaceman6194 8 лет назад

candle ?!?!

@eduardomallohuergo1801 4 года назад

He forgot to approach the bottle to the candle while serving.....

@pho3nix- 7 лет назад

You absolutely cannot open a bottle of Vintage Port with a feather - without a black candle.

@aimeethomson7806 4 года назад

No hassle

@Rune2650 9 лет назад

it is more "how to open a bottle of port whit cold water and heat"

@eqlzr2 7 лет назад

Yes, let's just taste test this freshly opened bottle of port by pouring a little into a glass without filtering it first to make sure there are no slivers of glass in it from fracturing the bottle neck. ;-)

@TheCelieme 7 лет назад

The bottle needs to be open on a totally different place, otherwise you are just drinking glass.

@user-pz6zx9xp4y 4 года назад

@Mark-qg8hm 6 лет назад

OK, he didn't open the bottle with a feather. He opened the bottle with a pair of burning hot tongs and ice water. The feather was irrelevant.

@MysticDonBlair 2 года назад

Please don’t use a plastic funnel Try something handmade from a craftsman It says you really care and value the experience

@teamthoth 5 лет назад

Do you even need the candle when you have a dollar tree funnel and some coffee filters?!

@harihari1480 3 года назад

1: after using the port tongs please put it away or put it inside a glass of cold water 2: after you successfully cracked the bottle, please wipe it before you pour the wine into the glass. Imagine there’s a crumble of the material of the glass and you drink it.

@Halocopter117 9 лет назад

I can't believe he was that careless to have a taste of the Port before pouring it through the muslin, so many people have had micro shards of glass in their system from stuff like this & using a sword to open a bottle. When are people going to exercise logic?
