Truth is my wine?

It is my wine Real
By Kenneth J. McCormick
Webmaster of the network on the facts

There are numerous articles fakes in this world. To mention some, there is counterfeit money, credit card fraud, identity fraud and what I've been listening lately about some of the Chinese cars, some cars can not be forged too. When one tends to think of counterfeit goods, I really do not think that give so much importance to the falsification of wines. I know I certainly do not give much thought came from, but otherwise I'm not a wine drinker, so I can not speak for them. I was very surprised to learn that there are plenty of bottles of counterfeit wine on the market. It really should not have, because some of the old bottles are really worth some money and when money is involved so is crime. I wonder however, if someone jumps a couple of thousand dollars for a rare wine and he and his friends drink, if most people never really know the difference? Just wondering how many people have done this? The reason I told you I do not drink wine do not want you to think that this article is written from the viewpoint of a wine connoisseur, as I am quite the opposite. I just wanted to clarify above that point.

I was reading about wines, the other day without really knowing why? The article talked about wine counterfeiting and called Chateau Faux. For some reason I felt this was kind of intriguing. We all know the major problems with Chinese imports that have been experiencing, but how many people know that counterfeit wines is also a big industry in China? Some of the wine bottles as recently as 20 years ago are no longer manufactured in the same way. To forgery of some of these wines that time, most counterfeiters have to complete an original bottle. Here's the thing though, the bottle has to be perfect and labels must also be in order. One may not know it was a fake, even if he was an expert until the cork is pulled. Most times I have said, you can tell by the cork, if you know what you're looking for, if a bottle has been filled. Here's something that I have learned, the corks on bottles of wine can have a crop in his hand burned. I do not know if this exists in most brands, but I know that there is some. A gift from dead is when you remove the cap from an expensive bottle of wine and this area has been softened, if the mark it was usually recorded in the cork. So here is the how it works, this type of wine that have the name and vintage on the cork. . The special bottle of wine I'm talking about is said to have been purchased for $ 2000.

Like the U.S. currency, some very expensive wine manufacturers are using high technology and prints labels, hoping that this will make counterfeiting of their products much more difficult. This is not true, if someone takes over an empty bottle. There are some people out there who collect rare wines. Can you imagine how many of them think they are the genuine articles stored in their warehouses, when in fact only have a forgery? About the only saving grace in the wine counterfeiting is that people usually buy these expensive bottles of wine can afford the loss. This does not make the crime less serious, however. Always I said that a crime is a crime is a crime. Not reduce crime just because you're taking advantage of the richest segment of our society. Counterfeiting wine has become so widespread in the United States, the FBI is involved in it. Some believe that some of the biggest wine auction houses in the world are turning a blind eye to the question of whether the bottles are authentic or not. Perhaps this is because nobody wants to pull the cork to answer that question, they feel that destroy the value of wine. The truth is that even if you opened a bottle or two of a large consignment of wine to be auctioned, it certainly does not guarantee that the rest of the wine is genuine. This is really a big problem for wine lovers and collectors. When wine collections are auctioned people completely honest, this is not means that, without knowing it, have no counterfeits in their libraries.

So how much wine is sold at the auction houses? Well, The Independent, says last year Christie's is said to have sold about $ 58 billion in outstanding wines in London and Paris to New York and Los Angeles. That's a lot only a wine auction house. It has been said that there is some agreement between the Italian mafia and Chinese manufacturers of fraudulent wines. This problem is so grave that is believed Some very old wines may have been forged many years ago and was not detected. I can see everything now, some of several wealthy executives is organizing a dinner and appears open a bottle of Chateau Lafite-Rothschild, who paid thousands of dollars and all your guests drink and praise the taste, but in reality is a fake and no one has noticed. I really do not know, but I suspect it just might be possible for a wine to be imitated in a laboratory. They can not do perfectly well, but could be close enough to fool many people. After all, if you gave a bottle of these things to someone who had never tested, how they know that was a forgery. So I think you should have proven real at least once, before I can judge the next bottle.

When we talk wine counterfeiting in China, we are not saying that the Chinese government tolerates this practice. As a matter of fact, they actively suppress wine counterfeiters. The problem in China is that there are factories in reality everything is devoted to it. So these are not small operations are more like wine wholesale counterfeiting operations. As I said earlier, many of these factories are linked to organized crime and are working hand in hand with the mafia in Italy, the mafia in Australia and many gangster organizations. I think one of the major real problems occur when counterfeit wines have improved to the point where it would not be able to tell the falsification of reality without a laboratory analysis. In this technological world of ours can not be seen as an impossibility. Controlled machine As for the community art, for example, is now possible for a team to make an exact copy of an original painting so perfect that a law has been passed that states that you should say about the painting which is a reproduction. You can only prove that the same will happen in the wine market in the coming years. In a way, although this could be a bad thing for collectors wine and wine aficionados, it could become the start of something good for the rest of us. What I'm talking about here is food that can be produced without using real animals and yet so close in taste not know the difference.

We know that a lot of foreign wines sold in Beijing is not primarily genuine.This However a problem for the Chinese. Europe has also been accused of falsifying high end wine. Many believe this is actually where the forgery began wine and it is only recently that the Asian market has developed for it. Want to impress your boss so he got a bottle of wine that cost a few hundred dollars. Then you start thinking about your purchase. You begin to worry that the bottle may not contain the real thing and that maybe you boss, who comes to dinner at his home with his wife, has proved the genuine article and notice the difference. What should you do? Should I take the opportunity and this wine on the table, or if you receive something less exotic, it has less chance of not being original? This may be the choice facing all wine drinkers in the future. It's nice to think that you have something rare, but not so nice when you have to worry about its authenticity. Well, I have people coming in the morning. I think I'll go out and get a box of wine, nothing is too good for my clients and I know for a fact that is true Gallo.
