How to choose the correct Wine glass

Hello,

For this new post I’ve chosen to focus on how to choose the correct Wine glass. Whether you are about to drink a light body white wine or a strong full body red wine, you should be aware about the best type of glass to use:

- If you choose to drink red wine, a larger glass will allow the wine to aerate and release the flavor and aromas

- If you choose to drink a white wine, then thinner smaller glasses are preferred. White wines are intended to be drink chilled. The narrow bowl at the bottom allows the wine to stay cooler longer. Make sure you held the glass by the stem to prevent heat transfer.

- If you are drinking sparkling wine, a champagne flute is the best choice. The flute is a thin, taller shaped glass an the narrow top helps to prevent the bubbles from escaping.

Have a look at the following video from WinetastersTV and you will get further tips on how to choose the correct wine glass.
