Why do you only fill a wine glass up 1/3?
In: Other
Because part of the flavor experience in wine is from the aroma. That’s why you’ll see people swirl the wine around the glass too, it releases the scent.
If you’re just sipping from the top you’re not smelling the wine as effectively as you do when you’re breathing those trapped smells in the glass.
At least that’s how I’ve always understood it.
