How many wine to pour in a big glass

Any holiday or solemn event can't do without the correct table layout, refined dishes and, of course, wine. In order that cultural society remained to that, it is necessary to conform to some traditional rules which developed in the centuries-old history of the consumption of alcoholic drinks.

It is known that the playfulness of champagne can only be considered in completeness if to fill a wine glass to the brim. However this rule is unacceptable if you bought noble wines. Around the world on etiquette it is accepted to pour this vivifying drink only to a half of a glass. If at any restaurant served you the wine poured to the brim, then it speaks not about generosity of the owner rather, and about lack of knowledge of rules of good form. It is so possible to pour unless beer.

In narrow glasses of "Flyut" to the brim pour champagnes, in big-bellied Burgundy - red, and in habitual to Bordeaux - white wines.

Each type of wine demands a special glass. So, red wines with a rich bouquet pour in really huge glasses which contain up to 600 milliliters of liquid. It is obvious that to pour out all bottle in one glass to nobody and will come to mind.

Glasses for white wines have the traditional Burgundy form and volume in 300-350 milliliters. In such glasses wine quickly heats up therefore it is necessary to pour such volume of drink that was enough only for couple of drinks.

Etiquette

If the wine glass is filled completely, then the fragrant bouquet of fruits can't be experienced. It is impossible to play wine and to consider all paints and shades of filling. Under the law of etiquette the glass with wine should be held by a leg. But if ware is heavy, then the guest will clumsily try to hold a wine glass with wine, trying to execute instructions of rules and holding a glass by a leg. It will need to do nothing how to undertake a glass. "Well and that here it?" — you ask. The fact is that traces from fingers will be ugly allocated on your crystal and to spoil magic feeling of a holiday. Besides, it is good to drink wine in a cool state, but not in heated by heat of your hands.

Glass volume

How many wine can be poured into a big glass — there is no exact figure. A big glass or small — it depends on a type of wine. White grades can be poured in smaller crystal, and red give in big wine glasses. Anyway it is necessary to follow the rule that it is only a half necessary to pour. It is better to add wines once again, than to pour. The restaurants respecting themselves always suggest to put not the whole bottle, but a decanter of 250 grams on a table. In case the client wishes to increase volume, then the waiter will repeatedly fill a decanter with wine.

At restaurants it isn't accepted to put a bottle with wine on a table, for this purpose there are special supports which are placed near a table. Cases of service of the company more than 6 people can be an exception.

The opinion that in a glass it is necessary to pour only a third of total amount meets. But anyway — full the glass shouldn't be, otherwise you risk to be entitled the layman.
