Fill only one-third of your glass with wine leaving rest of the glass empty for the wine to swirl.

Hold the wine glass with the stem or the base whichever you find comfortable and cool. 

If the wine is too cold, use the heat of your palms and cup the glass.

Swirl the wine in your glass and swish it in your palate. It helps the flavours of the wine to open up.
