>>This appears to be nonsense. Please enlighten us as to why it is not.==Sorry, just my observation. The Pepper Bridge Winemaker Jon Francois fills his barrels and they stay in one spot never moving until they are drained by gravity in their cavernous underground barrel room. Most of the startup wineries here move barrells pell mell whenever they "top off" adding liquid due to evaporation. Moving of the barrells causes sediment to stir and does indeed cloud the glass. One sip of Pepper Bridge cab both bottled and barreled proved to me instantly the benefit of such ccare. Enology, sheesh.
