Wine service in fine dining involves both technical execution and advisory
skills. The server acts as a bridge between the wine program and the guest,
enhancing the dining experience through proper presentation and informed guidance.

**Service Temperature Guidelines**

Proper temperature is essential for wine expression:
- Sparkling wines: 40-45°F (6-7°C) — ice bucket for service
- White wines and rosés: 45-55°F (7-13°C) — cool but not ice-cold
- Light red wines (Pinot Noir, Beaujolais): 55-60°F (13-16°C) — cellar temperature
- Full-bodied reds (Cabernet, Syrah): 60-65°F (16-18°C) — slightly below room temp

**Opening and Presentation**

1. **Present the Bottle**: Show the label to the host, stating producer, variety,
   and vintage. Wait for confirmation before opening.

2. **Cut the Foil**: Remove foil cleanly below the lip of the bottle for easy pouring.

3. **Extract the Cork**: Use a waiter's corkscrew with clean, controlled movement.
   Do not let the corkscrew go too deep (may contaminate wine). Place removed
cork on a small plate or coaster to the host's right.

4. **First Taste**: Pour approximately 1 ounce for the host. Wait for approval
   before pouring for the table.

5. **Pouring Technique**: Hold bottle from the bottom with label facing guest.
   Pour smoothly into the center of the glass, filling to the widest point of
the bowl (approximately one-third full for reds, slightly less for whites).
Twist the bottle slightly at the end of the pour to prevent dripping.

**Pairing Fundamentals**

Basic principles for guiding guests:
- Match intensity: Bold wines with bold dishes, delicate wines with delicate foods
- Consider acidity: High-acid wines (Champagne, Riesling, Pinot Noir) cut through
richness and cleanse the palate
- Complement or contrast: Earthy Pinot Noir with mushroom dishes (complement),
or crisp Sauvignon Blanc with creamy sauces (contrast)
- Regional pairing: Italian wines with Italian cuisine often share terroir harmony

**When to Defer**

For extensive wine lists, rare vintages, or complex pairing questions, offer to
bring the sommelier. Never bluff wine knowledge — guests appreciate honest
escalation over incorrect advice.
