    For current CMS exams yes pour clockwise regardless of gender. This video was made prior to their revised standards.

    I was under the impression that you would pour clockwise around the table, regardless of gender, with the host/taster being served last. Am I incorrect in this assumption?

    I think this video is very has some usefule information.  I have never used a coaster for the cork, or a cradle.  I may start using a coaster for the cork depending on how much room I have at the table.  There was nothing in the video as to trouble shooting broken corks, or using any of the other opening tools.  The majority of people could have read this.

    Jody Plaisance Unfortunately, there is not an easy answer and it depends on the wine. It could be 10 years or never depending on the wine. Generally, a wine with higher tannin will create more sediment (Cabernet, Nebbiolo, etc)

    At what point would you consider handling a wine to prevent sediment from moving? 10 years, 15, 20??
