What is the right way to consume red wine?

Mab asked:


What is the right way to consume red wine? Chilled? or with ice-cubes? or just at room temperature? I know people drink chilled beer, but wine beats me!!! Which is better in terms of taste and health? Red wine? White wine?

Ok, so for christmas my sister and i are wanting to buy my parents a bottle of dry red wine. Their favorite styles are Cabernet Sauvignon, Red Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, and Syrah. We are trying to keep the price under 30 bucks. Have any suggestions?

Specific brands they enjoy are Mount Veener, Greg Norman, Hahn Estates, and Fess Parker.

Matt asked:


I know wine-tasters often take a gentle sniff of the wine they’re drinking before they actually taste it. I’ve heard of wine described as having a “nutty nose.” How do nose and aroma actually differ?
Thanks guys! I always thought there was a difference, but I guess not.

NCPA15 asked:


A bit of red wine was spilled on my butter colored jute rug. I tried the cleaner “Awesome” and scrubbed with a toothbrush, but from the looks of it the stain will still be visible when the spot dries. I think the issue is that jute rugs are very coarse in texture and are tightly knit. Ideas?

Want to make each of your guests feel special at your next event? Having hand painted wine glasses, or other glasses such as martini glasses, margarita glasses, and Pilsner glasses for your guests to drink from will make them feel special. This is also another way for your guests to distinguish between one glass over another and keep track of the glass they are drinking from. You wouldn’t have a need for the little charms to place around the stem of each glass.

The glassware can be painted to compliment the theme and colors of your event. They can be painted to match or all different patterns. That is up to you. It is important to keep in mind that since they each are hand painted, no two will be exactly alike.

Depending on the budget for your event and the type of event it is, you could even use the specialty glasses as a party favor. Your guest will love being able to take something so lovely home with them. It is not only a pretty piece, but something they can continue to use in the future.

You do not have to spend a fortune to offer this to your guests. The glasses are reasonably priced and can be completed in a short period of time. You could also have a general theme painted that you feel will work with most of the events you oversee. This will allow you to use them for more than one event and cut the expense even more.

It is definitely worth checking in to!

Please contact me if you have any questions.

About the Author:
My name is Amy Ressa. I am the owner of The Painted House and More. My business is located in Central Ohio. I have over 16 years of painting experience which began painting in my own home. I originally started painting with stencils and then progressed in to freehand decorative painting. My style of painting is the One Stroke Technique, developed by Donna Dewberry. It is an easy way to make painting visually interesting. I have experience painting not only on walls, but glass, ceramics, fabric, metal, candles, and canvas. This technique is great for small and large jobs alike. It isn’t limited to just one area. I love to use the acrylic enamel made by Plaid. It is a great product that is very durable. You can bake your glass projects to set the paint, or just let it cure in the open air. After 21 days your paint will be set. I am always looking for people who I can share my talent with. If you have any interest or questions, please feel free to call me at: 614-530-0219 or email me at: aamilou@aol.com.
