LAW Facts

Oxygenation is the process of letting the wine air in the glass for a few minutes prior to tasting or consuming.  Most wines will benefit with some time open so they can ‘breath.”  Wine is alive and if you were trapped in the bottle for a period of time, you would like to take a few deep breaths as well.
