Whether it is red wine or white wine, or sparkling wine (such as champagne), or even fortified wine or spirits such as whiskey, it is generally underfilled..
Red wine——Under the requirements of professional sommelier, red wine is required to be poured to one-third of the wine glass. At wine exhibitions or wine tasting parties, it is generally poured to one-third of the wine glass!
If it is white wine, measure 2/3 of the glass into the glass; if it is champagne, pour 1/3 of it into the glass first, and then pour into the glass until it is 70% full after the bubbles in the wine subside. can~
BUT If you drink it daily, you don’t have to be so demanding and you must be so precise. It doesn’t matter if you drink more or less. The most important thing is to drink happily~
Why is the wine not filled? What good will it do?
sober up
Wine is called a “living liquid” and has the title of “Sleeping Beauty” when it is in the bottle. The wine that is not filled is conducive to the “wake up” of the wine……
The wine that is not filled means that the contact area between the wine liquid and the air in the glass will be larger, which can make the wine wake up faster than the full wine~
If it is poured directly, the contact area between the wine and the air will be very small, which is not conducive to the awakening of the wine, so that the aroma and taste cannot be released quickly. Different wines also have their own suitable glass types, such as Bordeaux glasses, Burgundy glasses, white wine glasses, champagne glasses, etc…
When drinking red wine, I almost always shake the glass slightly, hold the stem, and rotate the glass gently, and then the wine sways in the glass, feeling like it has its own filter…
Shaking the glass can make the wine contact with the air, thereby promoting the release of aroma substances, making the wine fragrant~
However, if the wine is full, it is impossible to shake the glass at all. If the wine is full, you must be very careful when picking it up without dripping or spilling.
Not to mention shaking the glass, the glass would probably be spilled, and the wine spilled on the table, directly at the scene of a car accident. It might be so embarrassing if it was at a wine show, wine tasting, or salon reception… .
Wine is relatively elegant. Holding a half-filled glass of wine, you don’t have to worry about the wine spilling out when you walk around (provided you don’t hit people), and it’s pleasing to the eye just sitting and standing.
If the glass is full, you have to worry about the wine spilling all the time, and it lacks visual aesthetics…
