Glass, ice, or soda water with the wine? I'll explain why NO❌ 😃⁠

Let's start with the usual phrase "The wine is drunk by each one as they want" and yes, it is definitely like that. However, I want to tell you why some practices are a resounding NO:⁠

⁠

🍷 Why NOT use a glass? Because when I grab it with my hand I transfer the heat of my body to the wine, I warm it up, I quickly remove it from its ideal temperature. That's why the glass has a stem, so as NOT to heat the wine.⁠

⁠

Why NOT use ice? because you are going to dilute the wine. If the reason is that it seems too strong, I suggest you try softer wines. If the reason is because it's hot, add the ice, stir for a few seconds and take it out so the temperature drops but it doesn't get watery.⁠

⁠

💦 Why NOT use soda? The same reason as with ice, if it is to dilute, opt for softer wines. There is a wide variety of whites, rosés and smooth reds that you can try to enjoy your drink more.⁠

⁠

Of course, if we talk about cocktails, things change. You can make very good drinks with wines, especially using young wines. Would you like to share some ideas? I read you 😍⁠
