how to hold wine glass
How to Hold a Wine Glass. Hold all stemmed wine glasses (red, white, etc) towards the base of the stem between your thumb, forefinger and middle finger. Youâll find that your other fingers will just rest on the base naturally. Donât worry, itâs totally socially acceptable to swirl your wine.
Wine is served in stemware because the temperature at which wine is served can have a profound impact on the tastes and the enjoyment it yields. Wine glasses should always be held by the stem of the glass rather than the bowl since the heat of your hand will quickly warm the liquid.
