You’ll want to take the bottle of red wine you’ll be serving and decant it for some hours before you plan on serving it. You’re going to want to leave it out just at room temperature with the most ideal temperature being 62-65 degrees.
If you have concerns about leaving the bottle uncovered you should feel free to put a piece of netting over the bottles opening. The netting is important rather than using something else as the wine still needs to be able to breathe.
Warm the Glasses
Warming the glasses is something that is very easy to do and you want to do it especially if the glasses feel cold. You can warm the glasses by simply running them under hot water for just a few seconds then you’ll want to dry them completely.
It’s important to keep your glasses just like your wine, at room temperature or even slightly above. If the glass is slightly above room temperature it will accentuate the wine within them even that much more. It is not necessary to keep the glasses above room temperature, just at room temperature.

You’ll want to have some salty snacks available if you’re not severing the wine for dinner specifically. Some examples will include:
- Aged cheeses and crackers
- Salty ham slivers
