I don’t know much about wine, how can I learn more?

If you are interested in learning about wines, we believe the best way is to just keep tasting them! Purchase wines from diferent countries, of different grape varietals and explore them till you find your favorites. Alternatively, have a chat with our wine experts via email at info@winetalk.com.my or sign up for our newsletter to stay in the loop of our wine tasting events.

Can you deliver wines that are not on your wine list?

We will be happy to look for a specific wine request, provided it is available in the Malaysian market. Email the details of your special request to info@winetalk.com.my and we will get back to you on availability and price.

What does ‘vintage’ mean?

The vintage year on a wine label is the harvest year of the grapes from which the wine was made. It is also called ‘Millesime’ in French, ‘Cochesa’ in Spanish or ‘Vendemmia’ in Italian. Some wines like Champagnes are made from a blend of different years, this is why they are labelled as ‘Non-Vintage’ (NV).

What is the difference between the dry and fruity grape types?

Some grape varietals like Chardonnay or Cabernet Sauvignon Sauvignon are reputed to produce ‘dry’ wines, leaving a dry finish on the palate. However, this does not mean that ‘fruity’ wines are sweet. They are just more aromatic and easier on the palate, much like the Sauvignon Blanc. Many prefer one over the other but if you’re unsure, we recommend you try them both to figure out your palate preference.

What are the differences between the wine ‘body’ types?

This represents the strength or tannin levels of the wine. Light-bodied wines are soft, easy-drinking wines, usually un-oaked and low in tannins while full-bodied wines are rich and concentrated, usually containing higher alcohol and tannins. Medium-bodied wines fall somewhere in the middle.

What are sulphites and should I be worried about them?

Sulphite is a term used to describe sulphur dioxide and other sulphur derivatives. Sulphites are found in all wines as they are a natural product of fermentation. Sulphur dioxide is added in winemaking to prevent oxidation, kill bacteria and make the wines safer to export. Producers are required to include the phrase “Contains Sulphites” on their labels to alert those who may be allergic, which is approximately 1% of the world’s population. If you are part of that 1% but are still interested in wines, contact us at info@winetalk.com.my and we will be happy to recommend labels suitable to you, made with extremely low sulphate levels.

Is it true that wine, especially reds, are good for health?

Many studies have been done regarding the subject, and it’s been found that wine, in moderate quantities, is good for your health. Red wine in particular contains a high level of resveratrol which is an antioxidant which can prevent heart disease. Yay, resveratrol!

At what temperature should I serve my wines?

With the hot weather in Malaysia, we recommend a cooler temperature for your wines over the usual ‘room temperature’ recommended in European countries. White wines should be served at a temperature of 5-7°C, champagnes and rosés around 10°C, and reds around 16-18°C, depending on the body type.

I don’t have a wine chiller. Can I still store wines at home?

Yes, but not for a very long period of time. You can store your wines without a wine chiller as long as you store them in a cooler room and keep them away from direct sunlight (e.g. a store room or under stairs). White wine can be stored in your fridge and we recommend that you pop your red wine in the fridge for at least 1 or 2 hours before serving them to bring the temperature down to a desired level. However, it would be a good idea for you to invest in a wine chiller if you plan to stock up on good bottles of wine for longer periods of time. You can find good ones on our page here.

Where are the wines from the ‘Wine Talk wine list’ being stored?

Some of our wines are kept in a temperature controlled room in our HQ and the bulk of our wines are stored by third party suppliers. They have outstanding facilities designed for storing wines, keeping them in top notch conditions.

Can I comment on the wines I received?

Please do! Our aim is not only to sell wines, but to share the experience. You can rate and comment on the specific wine product page itself or drop us comments and feedback at info@winetalk.com.my
