In experiments conducted
with Jordan Chardonnay,
we preferred wines closed
with Origine by DiamĀ®
corks.
Because the quality bar is extremely high at Jordan,
changing wine closures was not a decision that could
be made quickly. I began following Diam when
it became an industry buzzword in 2009, and over
the years, I've stayed up to date with the company's
research and kept records of which wineries made
the switch. Research and experiments are a major part
of winemaking, and while I am not always ready
to make changes, I recognize that it is best to test new
techniques and products for impact and efficacy, so we
have historical data in case we ever want to seriously
consider them for Jordan wines. From screwcaps to
plastic corks, we've tested and rejected them all-and
Diam was the latest tool that warranted a trial. First,
we tested the consistency of both cork types through
aroma evaluation. We opened different bottles from
multiple cases of the 2018 vintage-some aged with
the natural cork and others with Diam-and found that
the aromas and flavors were identical in every bottle
with Diam, as well as more vibrant and expressive.
The round mouthfeel complexity that comes with
bottle age was consistent across the Diam bottles as
well. The natural cork-aged wine, however, had slight
variations in aromas, flavors and texture within each
case due to their natural elasticity and tiny holes. While
natural cork is a phenomenal closure, Diam offers us
a level of sensory consistency never possible until now.
Consistency is a cornerstone of the Jordan house style.
