Business People Must Have Wine Etiquette

Wine etiquette, wine etiquette is very cumbersome, but the fun of wine is reflected in this series of tedious. If you want to really appreciate the inherent quality and profound cultural details of wine, you must drink its best flavor, and don't pay attention to wine etiquette.

　　 Wine etiquette

1, open bottle

Bottle opening is very exquisite, not open to drink. If so, a bottle of good wine will lose its original taste. Usually, in order to make the aroma of this bottle more fragrant, you can open the wine before drinking it, let the wine permeate the air, especially the wine stored in the year, and even seal it over a long time ago, and the wine body is still living in that era. Let it blend with the present air for a while, it will help greatly the improvement of the quality of the body itself, and the old wine usually has an old gas, so that it can breathe fresh air, which has great benefits for the reduction of the wine body.

　　 2. Choose the cup.

The best choice of glass is colorless and transparent, so as to appreciate the color of wine. The shape of the cup is preferably tulips, and the mouth of the cup shrinks slightly, so that the aroma can be condensed. The cup must have a cup and feet, so that not only can shake the wine cup, but also avoid the influence of the temperature of the hand on the wine. Champagne should use long goblet to enjoy the color and bubbles of wine.

　　 3, pour wine

This is a very simple action, but do not fill the wine, pour the wine into 1/3 cups at most, that is, the maximum diameter of the cup is enough. Because enough space is left to shake the wine cup before it can spill the wine to the outside. At the same time, there is enough space inside the cup to retain the aroma that escapes from the wine.

But sparkling wine is not restricted by the "1/3 rules". In principle, the sparkling wine poured down to the bubbles and reached the mouth of the cup, similar to the inverted beer. If we pour wine slowly along the wall, then the bubbles on the top will be less. Then the principle of pouring wine is 2/3.

　　 4. test

If the wine is served in the restaurant, the waiter will pour a little wine into the host's cup after opening the bottle, and then change the bottle or pour it to others after the owner has approved it. The purpose of this wine is to test the quality of the wine, not to confirm the taste of the wine.

　　 5. Toast

From a convenient point of view, holding a cup is the most natural and the most robust one. Many people also take cups like this. But the correct posture is pinching the cup under the cup, or even holding the bottom of the glass with the thumb and forefinger. The reason why this kind of posture is not natural and unbalanced is correct. It is because it prevents human body temperature from being transmitted to wine. On the other hand, it avoids the fingerprints left in the cup and affects the appreciation of the wine.

Perhaps in some people's memory, there is a cup holder holding the cup between the middle finger and the ring finger. It's an elegant and romantic grip on brandy, but it's best not to drink wine. If you think that the temperature of wine is too low, you can use this posture to warm the wine, rather than mechanically and dogmatism.

　　 6. Toast

When the toast is held in the west, hold the glass up and look at each other, and at least drink a drink to show respect.

　　 7, spin

Don't drink wine immediately after entering the cup. There is still a shake Cup before entering the wine. The purpose of shaking the cup is to release the aroma of wine, but also to give the wine more time to oxidize, so that the wine has a soft process. This is also one of the reasons why wine can not be poured too much.

Shake the cup to make the liquor bottom-up and rotate along the direction of the cup. A good shake Cup action will make the wine in the cup form a larger concave surface, thereby speeding up the release and oxidation of the aroma. At the same time, it has a graceful spiral track. When shaking cups, you must not shake the wine outside. Shaking cups can be done by putting some water in the cup. But the water is different from the wine. A glass of water may have been trained to spin freely. The wine may still be dangling in the cup, and there is a danger of being dangled. Of course, you can also slack off, put the wine cup on the table, and then move the finger on the table with your fingers on the bottom of the cup, so as to play the role of shaking the cup.

　　 8, wine temperature

When drinking wine, if the temperature is too low, the aroma of wine will be closed in the wine and volatile, but if the temperature is too high, the alcoholic body in the wine will ferment, resulting in this wine may produce aroma compounds, greatly affecting the quality of wine. It is very important to master the temperature when drinking. It is generally recognized that the temperature of drinking white wine is limited to 16 degrees Celsius, while red wine can not exceed 20 degrees Celsius.
