Worked at a hotel lounge and bar for a month now with zero experience. We do serve wine but normal cheap wine. I serve it like what he's shown and most foreigner are amazed i knew how to serve
Awesome, thanks for sharing.
the way his face was so proud that it didn't make a sound when the cork came out kills me
Thank you for showing so clearly & properly how to remove foil / handle key / proper cuts
Thank you!! Much needed info 🙂
I would pull the cork almost out of the bottle, then remove the corkscrew from the cork before wiggling the cork out, its far more efficient to have control over and remove silently an old cork and you don't have to screw the cork off the corkscrew after pulling it out while holding the bottle and rubbing the corkscrew that's been in your pocket over the exposed rim of the bottle which should also be wiped with a linen after removing the cork especially if the bottle is old or the corkscrew has crumbled some or went through the bottom of the cork. The cork should also be felt and smelled quickly by the server to detect a rotted or bad wine before the guest does. Also removing the cork is not always necessary in US if a couple wishes to take the bottle with them for example after dinner and you push the cork back into the bottle and package it up to go.
Thanks so much for this video!
Well done, Jordan! You certainly have many skills, including video production.:)
Thanks Mr. Isaac!
I would be upset if my waiter denied me the satisfaction of the cork's pop
High end restaurants usually want it to be silent when opening a bottle of wine.
Excelent service
This helped a lot thank you.
I think your technique is very good I love it, but some knowledge might not be right. You let the host taste the wine to approve that the wine has not gone bad, not if they like the wine or not. The only condition the host can return the wine is if it has gone bad, never because it tastes bad.
100% right.
In fact by smelling the corck one should already be able to figure it out. However I do notice that the act of tasting etc adds some experience so I support that part
You dont work in the yes business
Beautiful
can you put the cork back into the bottle or is it kinda like once the bottle's been open, that's it.
Waiter for 3 months, nobody showed me how to do it. But still the colleges are always here to complain about my way to do things 😅
I’m so glad I work in a nice casual restaurant lol this makes my brain hurt
why should we avoid the pop sound?
It’s more professional. It’s the standard set by the court of master sommeliers
The Pop can give the wine an air shock its called in terms of Restaurant!!!...
what if the host is a girl? do you still go to another person to pour wine?
The host is always last. Even if it’s a girl. Cheers!
Its supposed to sound like a kiss. "Almost Sommelier"
🍷
Quilt cabernet saving
How do you know who the host is? Is that established during introductions?
The one that orders the wine.
what do you keep looking at?
Let me stick to working at Applebees chi
😂😂
You should be wiping the top of the bottle with a serviette after removing the tip of the capsule, and once again after removing the cork according to the Court of Master Sommeliers.
I thought the question was how to open a bottle of wine not what kind of glasses and where to put this stuff
"Serviette"... I guess the term "napkin" is just too plain, low class, and not pretentious enough for fancy folks. LoL!
Lol. Ehh not even. the word napkin is used in American English whereas the word serviette is used in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, etc. In Spanish the word is servilleta.
Not for us box wine people
awesome. stuff
I WATCHED MY VIDEOS ON WINE SERVICE. 🍷 YOURS IS THE BEST! THANK YOU. I WISH I WORKED AT YOUR CLUB. YOU SEEM LIKE YOU WOULD BE A TERRIFIC BOSS!!🙂
