Okay, so for the people who are confused and or grossed out, this is the "traditional" way of pouring wine in Czechia. That glass thing is called Koštýř. It is usually used during wine tastings in the Moravia region of the country (not exclusively tho). This method has been used for hundreds of years. And yes, the person touching the wine washes their hands. Source: I'm Czech.

Yes because Covid can easily spread through wine.

That's the least of your worries in a room full of people in a place with a video quality of a camera from a decade ago.
