Wine Glass – 5 Steps to Help You Choose the Proper Wine Glass

 

Every wine has certain characteristics that are different from any other. This is why every wine should be served in a proper glass that is capable of accentuating its characteristics.

1. The wine glass must be transparent, colorless, and have no decorations
2. Ideally it will be made of crystal, half-crystal, or superior glass. No matter what kind of material, the glass must be thin, ideally less than one millimeter. A thicker glass can be unpleasing to the drinkers' lips, and can alter the perception of the wine.
3. The glass should have a stemware shape. The base must be large enough to keep the glass stable. You should lean towards buying glasses with a longer stem. The longer stem gives the drinker more room to hold the glass, keeping heat away from the body of the glass. Heat emanating from the drinker's hand can alter the temperature of the wine and influence the perception of its aroma. This is why the wine glass must always be held close to its base.
4. A glass that has an opening that enlarges in respect to the body is ideal for drinking younger and crisper white wines. This shape directs the wine to the tip of the tongue which is more sensitive to sweetness, and to the sides of the tongue which are more sensitive to acidity.
5. Mature, fuller white wines require a glass with a bigger opening and larger body. This allows a better perception of the complex aromas associated with older white wines.Young red wines use the same glass as mature white wines. The younger reds have stronger tannins and must stimulate the inner parts of the mouth, avoiding contact with the gums. A larger glass also allows better oxygenation. The same glass referenced above could also be used for mature red wines. The only caveat is that the glass should be slightly larger. The opening should also be somewhat narrower to experience the complex aromas of a mature red wine.
