Proper barrels are pretty important in the aging of some red wines. How can ultrasounds emulate this? and, reading a page about the chemistry of wine aging, I wonder how so many chemical processes can possibly be emulated by ultrasounds too... if anything, this machine maybe make bad wine a little less horrible by breaking done the taste a bit...?
Absolutely! Although the machine may do what it claims(which is to artificially age the wine), the article claiming that this will make 'plonk' into beautiful wine is naive & uninformed. Writing as though age was the only factor in making a good wine makes the author of the article sound very uninformed.

Wouldn't surprise me... but you never know. It's certainly an industry that tends to attract people with more money than common since.

If you put a new born in there will it age? Only one way to find out!
