Wine Tips

- Make sure any wine glass you utilize is rinsed and dried with a clean cloth.
- Most wine glasses should be filled about 1/3 of the bowl.
- To keep from dripping when pouring, lift the bottle from the glass and turn slightly to the right as you pull away from the glass.

- Red and white wines, when recorked, can last in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
