You can actually deal with this problem by not swirling. If you wish to release the aroma, simply place a straw in the wine and blow some bubbles. Then sniff deeply. If you inhale a bubble, so much the better. Works fine in both hemispheres, and for left-handed people, too.

Long day staring at a computer screen.
I misread the title as ‘Direction of swine whirling.’
Gotta be careful doing that. Once those swine molecules star depolarizing, the smell is awful. It’s enough to make large, I’ll-behaved canids huff and puff.
Heh. Sounds like Texas barn dances.
Heh heh heh it’s going viral. Derek Lowe, chemist blogger extroardinaire, has chipped in.
Yes, water forms clusters around ions, around proteins, around anything in solution which is charged. But the time a water molecule spends in the cluster is measured in femtoseconds.
“For context, a femtosecond is to a second, what a second is to about 31.7 million years.”
So if you drink really, really, really quickly you might taste those clusters.
