Bottle Of Wine

A California winery submerged four cases of Cabernet Sauvignon in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina, to see how the ocean affects the aging of the wine

Winemakers have long known wine recovered from sunken ships has a unique taste and the ocean is thought to have something to do with that.

And the scientific community is united in that fact.



Michael Kaiser, the director of communications for WineAmerica, the National Association of American Wineries, suggested that wine recovered from sunken ships may simply taste better because the wine is really old, although the water may affect it as well.
