My first wine kit says after corking the wine, leave the bottles in a cool cark place for 3 days then lay the bottles onto their sides. I presume this is something to do with allowing air to escape but what if I am using screw caps.
Should I just lay the wine down on its side or leave them standing up. I am thinking of the sediment that will probably gather on the bottom if stood up and I cant understand why laying a bottle down would help as the sediment will gather on the side and make pouring hard.
