Choosing the Right Glass: Selecting Wine Glasses
 
The Importence of Glassware
Selecting the right glassware for your guest will enhance the appearance of your presentation and style. Why stem ware?  A glass with a stem helps to avoid warming the wine by your fingertips.  This is most important when serving wines that are at their best served chilled.  Knowing the basics of wine can ensure that every glass can be enjoyed at the peak of its flavor.
 
Wine Glasses
Although you can find many different sizes and styles of wine glasses, the cup or “bowl” is the most important factor of the glass.  The correct glass will enhance not only the visual appeal, it will allow the properties of the wine such as the body and aromas of the wine to be enjoyed to its fullest.  There no hard and fast rules for serving the perfect glass of wine, but here are the standards that are generally observed.
 
  • Red Wine – Traditionally, red wines with strong bouquets are served in the larger bowled wine glass.  This allows the wine to breathe without losing the aroma.  The width of the rim and capacity of the class allows the depth of the bouquet and the taste to be appreciated.
 
  • White Wine – Lighter, more delicate white wines are served in taller glasses with a narrow bowl that allows the bouquet to concentrate. The smaller glassware are also appropriate for the lighter rose’ wines as well.
 
  • Champagne – The fluted tall slender champagne glass is the best fit for champagne and sparkling wines.  The flute displays the sparkling quality of the bubbles it their best advantage.  This also keeps the champagne form going flat to quickly.
 
  • Sherry/Port – As sherry and port are strong wine hybrids that are served as pre or post dinner aperitifs, they are served in exceptionally small glasses.  Like liqueurs. Sherry and Port are both meant to be sipped. Like most liqueurs they are best served at room temperature.
 
  • Decanter/Carafe – Wine decanters traditional are ideal for serving up wine the need to breathe before being served.  This is particularly true for old red wine that has sediment.  Decanters provide a etiquette presentation to showcase the wine.
