As the name suggests, the word ice bucket is a bucket filled with ice cubes. Ice buckets are often used to store white wine, rosé and sparkling wine.

Correct steps:

The first step: prepare an ice bucket, add ice to the ice bucket, and then add water;

Step 2: Make sure the ice water covers 2/3 of the wine bottle;

Step 3: Add a handful of fine salt to the ice bucket;

Step 4: Keep turning the wine bottle so that the wine in each plane is fully in contact with the ice water;

Step 5: Wait about 7 minutes for white wine; about 5 minutes for rosé wine; about 2 minutes for red wine.

Without the salt, it will take about 20-30 minutes to freeze wine in an ice bucket.

Many people think that simply putting the wine in ice cubes will cool it down, but it's actually very ineffective. Pour half a bucket of water into an ice bucket filled with ice cubes, which can increase the contact area between the wine bottle and the ice water. During the melting process of the ice water, the heat in the wine will be quickly absorbed to achieve refrigeration. Effect.

If there are only ice cubes and wine bottles, because the contact area between the two is too small, the air between them is filled with air, so the cooling effect is almost zero.

In addition, putting a handful of salt in an ice bucket filled with ice cubes and water can lower the freezing point of the brine; in addition, the salt will absorb heat during the melting process, which will lower the temperature of the ice water. Therefore, adding salt to an ice bucket can quickly enhance the cooling effect.

Avoid serving wine at too low temperature

Many people put the bottle in the ice bucket to cool down, and then let it stay in the ice bucket all the time, which can easily lead to too low serving temperature. Since different wines have different optimal serving temperatures, especially red wine, too low a temperature will destroy the taste of the wine. Therefore, professional sommeliers will take the wine out of the ice bucket and put it on the table at regular intervals after the wine is opened to ensure that the serving temperature is maintained at a certain level.
