The wine is served! Yes, but how?

Knowing how to pour a wine is very important: it helps to ensure that the flavor and aroma are not altered. First of all, once the bottle has been uncorked, in this case sparkling wine, examine the cork, smell it (possibly in secret!), and make sure that it does not “smell like mold” (a typical smell of cork). Serve the sparkling wine at a temperature of 6 ° to 8 °, taking into account that its temperature will usually go up by two degrees in the glass, which should always be served at room temperature. To avoid wetting the bottle while pouring, rotate it by 90° sharply and rapidly in an anti-clockwise direction. At this point, you should wait for the foam to lower before bringing your mouth and nose to the glass, otherwise you will inhale the gas which is just being released. Be careful though: unlike an aged red wine which requires “decantation” and aeration, sparkling wines should never be decanted as they will lose part of their effervescence and the resulting wine will be flat. Finally, one last tip: if you have doubts as to how clean the glass is, pour a small taster amount of the same sparkling wine into the glass, let it rotate slowly over the entire surface of the glass, then throw it away. This simple operation is known as “vinification”… the glass is now ready for your sparkling wine!
