The sense of smell contributes greatly to the enjoyment of the wine (and with other foods as well). Taking time to smell the wine allows you to enjoy the aromas, which can be delightful.

Why do some people tolerate spicy food better than others?

Sometimes its because of different personalities, but other times it because of personal preference. It has been shown that taste itself is influenced by sight and very heavily influenced by smell. One person's ability to tolerate spicy foods over anothers could be linked into the sensitivity of their sense of smell. I know many people with poor senses of smell who absolutely love spicy foods as it assists them in their ability to taste the foods due to the strength and the inclination of spicy foods to clear the sinus cavitys. (There are three types of people in the world: non-tasters, medium-tasters, and super-tasters. The type of taster that a person is depends on the amount of fungiform papillae on the surface of the tongue. The greater the amount, the more a person will taste. It is estimated that a quarter of the population is comprised of non-tasters, a quarter is comprised of super-tasters, and the remaining half is comprised of medium-tasters. A non-taster would be less likely to react strongly to spicy foods than a super-taster would be.)
