Answer 2

If you have the opportunity to serve a bottle of fine wine to dinner guests, there are some things you can do to make sure the presentation is as nice as the wine itself. A special wine should be treated with respect by the host and the guests.

Let it Breathe

If you are serving a red wine, open the bottle at least 15 minutes before you plan to fill the glasses. The elements in the wine will react chemically with the oxygen in the air, which creates a mellowing effect throughout the bottle. If a bottle of wine is not allowed to breathe it will taste sharp and unpleasant, which ruins the effort you’ve gone to in purchasing a fine wine. Your guests will not understand why you are so proud of the wine when it is virtually unpalatable because it wasn’t exposed to the air long enough.

Keep the Wine Near the Table

Once you have poured out a glass of the wine for each of your guests, place the bottle somewhere near the table. A fine white wine can be kept in a bucket of ice on a stand near the host’s chair. Red wines don’t need to be chilled and can be kept on a sideboard somewhere near the host. As each guest finishes their glass, the host will be able to refill them without having to leave the room. Storing a fine bottle of wine near the dinner table gives the evening an air of sophistication and celebration.

Offer Palate Cleansers

If your fine wine is being served before or after the main course, be sure there are plenty of palate cleansers available for your guests. Nice choices include small crackers, cheese, and grapes. The purpose of a palate cleanser is to clear the flavor of the wine from your mouth so that you can enjoy the full sensation of the flavor with each new sip. Palate cleansers are also nice to have if there are different flavors or types of wine being served at a single sitting. If you use cheese, be sure it is a cheese that has a strong flavor. Wine has a tendency to mellow the flavor of cheese.

You pair the wine with the dishes served with entrees.
