Wine Glasses

If you are a true lover of wine, you should be aware of the different types of wines glasses can make a difference to the experience of drinking the wine itself, some even say that wine glass choice can have an impact on the taste, aroma of the wine.

    Good wine glasses should always have a stem – this is especially important for wine that is served chilled wine as it ensures that the wine’s temperature doesn’t increase as your hand’s warmth gets transferred to the glass. In addition, a stem also ensures that the glass will not get covered with messy fingerprints.

This will help you in appreciating the true color of the wine being consumed, generally speaking most people avoid buying coloured glasses for this reason.

    Types of wine glasses

    Red wine glasses

    Red wine should be served in glasses with larger bowls. Use a glass with a larger bowl when the flavor of red wine is fuller as it will help in releasing even more flavors. These glasses tend to taper inwards so that aromas can be smelt by the nose.

    White wine glasses

    White wine should be served in glasses that have medium-sized bowls and tapered inwards. If the white wine is of more delicate kind, then you can serve it in larger glasses


    Champagne and sparkling wine

     Champagne should be served in tall, tapered flutes.
