Build Your Own Three-Glass Tasting Set (Bangkok)
Skip the jargon—taste side by side. At Venezia SeenSpace in Seenspace Thonglor, a three-glass tasting set is the fastest, most fun way to learn what you actually like. We’ll help you pick a theme, pour small, and keep each glass at the right temperature so every sip shows its best.
Step 1 — Choose a theme (3 easy options)
A) Bubbles, Bright White, Chillable Red
Start crisp, add texture, finish juicy. It’s the perfect intro trio for Bangkok’s warm evenings.
B) Classic vs. Natural
Pour a classic white next to a skin-contact (aka “orange”) white, then add a pét-nat for a playful fizz. Pét-nat (“pétillant naturel”) is bottled before fermentation finishes—lighter pressure, often a little hazy, and very lively.

C) Light-to-Deeper Reds
Begin with a chillable style, then step up to something more savoury. Keep the first red slightly cool so the fruit stays bright.
Decanter
Step 2 — Serve at smart, Bangkok-friendly temps
Wine tastes different at different temperatures. Use this as your quick rule of thumb:
Sparkling: well-chilled (about 3–7°C)
Crisp whites: fridge-cool (about 7–12°C)
Light reds/chillable: just cool (about 12–15°C)
Richer reds: slightly cool (about 15–20°C)
These ranges come from widely used service charts and are ideal for a city as warm as Bangkok.

Pro tip: For a light red, 20–30 minutes in the fridge (or a few minutes in an ice bucket) is enough—cold mutes aroma; cool makes it sing.

Step 3 — Use the right glass (keep it simple)
Bubbles: a tulip wine glass (not a narrow flute) keeps the fizz while letting aromas open.
Wine Enthusiast
Most whites and light reds: a medium-sized wine glass shows aroma without warming too fast; stems help keep temperature steady.

3) “Red Without Weight”
Cranberry-bright, low-tannin red (cool)
Herbal-fresh red with a drier finish (cool)
Optional: a sparkling red for a playful twist (cool)
How to taste (no fuss)
Look: color and clarity—don’t overthink it.
Smell: two short sniffs beat one long inhale.
Sip: a small mouthful; notice fruit, texture, finish.
Compare: which glass feels fresh, textural, or savoury? That’s your style.
If you like fresh & fizzy, start with bubbles. Want texture? Choose skin-contact. Craving red but not heavy? Go chillable. (Yes—chilling light reds is not only allowed, it’s delicious in summer.)
