Meteorite flavored wine
Thanks to Ian Hutcheon, owner of the observatory Centro Astronomico Tagua Tagua, in Chile, you might one day see “meteorite” join these enological flavors.
The Englishman, who also owns a vineyard in Chile’s Cachapoal Valley, recently produced a cabernet sauvignon named Meteorito that has been aged with a 4.5 billion-year-old meteorite. The space rock sat in an oak barrel with the wine for 12 months during fermentation. Hutcheon used a 3-inch meteorite believed to have crashed in the desert 6,000 years ago to give his wine what he calls a “livelier taste.” (The Drinks Business, Borkultusz, turizmusonline.hu).
