How to make the best use of wine glasses

when picking up wine glasses, make sure you choose clear ones to best enjoy the colour and appearance of wine.

When serving the wine, fill only 1/3 to 1/2 of the glass to allow the frinker to swirl the wine and release the bouquet. The air space between the wine and the mouth of the glass allows air to bring out the best in the wine's aroma.

Although stemless wine glasses are becoming popular, be careful when using them. Holding the wine glass in your hand will cause the heat from your hand to warm the wine. This can impede the wine from giving off its best aroma and flavor. If you must use these glasses put them down between sips to avoid warming the wine.
