  <title>Ep 582: Back to Basics –  Wine Etiquette</title>
  <description>This time I revisit a show from long ago on Wine Etiquette. In this Back-to-Basics episode, I cover the three main places you would use etiquette - a dinner party, a restaurant, and a tasting room.&amp;amp;nbsp;  I address:&amp;amp;nbsp; The Dinner Party: What to bring a host, a good welcome drink, whether or not to open a bottle that a guest brings, &amp;amp;nbsp;the etiquette of what to do with the last glass in the bottle, and the point in the night to serve your best wine. I also talk about the proper way to pour, how high to fill a wine red or white wine glass, and whether or not to display a bottle you have decanted.&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;  Source: Des Moines Register &amp;amp;nbsp; The Restaurant: I review every step of wine ordering from perusing the menu to looking at the cork to approving the wine. I discuss the interaction with a sommelier and what to do with large groups, and how to handle a restaurant that serves less than fresh wine by the glass. I touch on giving the waiter a taste of a special wine and some ideas of what to do at a BYO restaurant.&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; Tasting rooms: When to make a reservation, what to wear, tasting room fees, spitting, commenting/ask questions, and the most pressing question people have: what to tip tasting room staff.&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; I tried to cover everything, but if you still have questions, feel free to reach out!&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.&amp;amp;nbsp;Become a member today!  www.patreon.com/winefornormalpeople  _______________________________________________________________ &amp;amp;nbsp;  Check out my exclusive sponsor, Wine Access. &amp;amp;nbsp;They have an amazing selection -- once you get hooked on their wines, they will be your go-to!
