Does all wine get better as it grows older?

Not necessarily. Although many types of wine, particularly red ones, improve with age, there are some which do not keep so well, and may become unpleasant if kept for too long. Also, it has became fashionable recently to drink some wines when they are ‘new’ this means that the wine has been made from grapes harvested in the same year. In the wine-making industry, experiments continue to speed up artificially the ageing process in fine wines.
