How much do you know about the color of the wine bottle?

When wine bottles first appeared, due to the limitation of glass manufacturing technology, glass products showed natural green. Green wine bottles can block part of the light from entering the liquor, effectively prevent the excessive oxidation of wine and provide a better environment for wine storage.

Brown wine bottle can be said to be the most common wine bottle color at present. Like green wine bottle, brown wine bottle has a certain blocking effect on light, and the filtering degree of brown wine bottle to light is higher than that of green wine bottle, which is more conducive to the aging preservation of wine.

Although dark wine bottles can protect wine to a certain extent, they still need to be kept away from light in the process of storing wine.

Transparent wine bottles give people a fresh and lively feeling, which can show the attractive colors of wine to consumers. Those wines that give people a refreshing feeling are most suitable to use transparent wine bottles, such as white wine, pink wine and fruity wine.

In addition, the transparent wine bottle can make it easier for consumers to observe whether the wine has precipitation and impurities, which is convenient for consumers to buy. Although the transparent wine bottle is a sign of the progress of modern production technology, generally speaking, this kind of wine bottle is more suitable for drinking wine within one to two years after bottling, otherwise the wine will be easily oxidized.

Sometimes, in some producing areas, especially those with a long planting history, the color of wine bottles is actually an inheritance of tradition.

So don't be surprised to see some white wine in green or brown bottles.
