In the tradition that has been passed down from the Sages, the blessing of the bread should actually precede the blessing of the wine. This is in order for us to help preserve the priority of the wine, and to avoid causing " shame " for the bread which should be blessed first, the bread is considered " removed " by concealing it from our view with the challah cover.
