Is it rude to swirl and sniff for the nose of your wine at a fancy restaurant? Furthermore what type of Sherry would you order directly before or directly after dinner? Is it correct to order sweet Sherry after?

No it is not rude. Swirling wine and sniffing it's bouquet are appropriate ways to get the full body of the wine. Sherry is a preference to the drinker and usually people prefer Sherry after dinner (with a nice cigar). Directly after dinner I prefer a brusque green creme de menthe to settle my dinner.

By all means swirl and sniff away! It is not rude at all. I think sherry is a predinner drink. My two persoanl after dinner favs are Gran Marnier Cognac or a good port.
