I clean at a shop on Saturdays, and they're going to have a party. I'm supposed to walk around and check to see if anyone needs wine poured for them. Help me figure out a way to do it so it doesn't look weird or awkward? What exactly should I say? What sounds very professional? I want to make a good impression.

PS
The clients are very pretentious and snooty (the type who get weekly nose jobs), so should I treat them different from a "regular" person?

if they want you to serve wine to people, why don't they instruct you as to the way they prefer to have it done? that's what they should do

They ARE not different from a regular person. Just remember that they are just the same as you. They have all the bodily functions that you have and put their pants on the same way you do. They are no better than you!
Simply walk around and smile and ask if they need more. After refilling their glass, say something like "Let me know if you need anything else." Just be polite.

First relax and don't let these people intimidate you. I waitressed for a few years and I would just watch glasses and when they are low walk up and ask if anyone would care for another drink.

Just be calm and see them as the humans they are and politely say "Excuse would you care for some wine or would you care for more."

Just be yourself..not nervous. and polite. They are no better than you...Many millionaires and movie stars started as waiters and shop employees..including several presidents.

They are clients of your employer. I'm sure they would appreciate it if you treat them well, but don't pamper them too much. You're an employee, not slave labour.

Just because they are snooty doesnt make them better.Treat them like you would your friends.

Just be yourself. Usually, the less said to 'em, the better. Always smile, even if you think they are dorks and snotty.

Could I interest you in a refill? or Would you care for more wine?

You would politely wait for a break in their conversation and then you would say "may I replenish your drink for you?" If they refuse, then politely nod and step away.
