Crystal Wine Glasses
 So,
you have crystal wine glasses prettily perched on the shelf in your
display case in your dining room. They look great, but, when do you dare
take them down and actually use them? These glasses should be saved and
used for special occasions. They add to the ambiance of the wine
drinking. Look for the crystal wine glasses with the crystal emblem.
Red wine
glasses
are usually a little taller and wider so the complexities of the
wine
can be better appreciated. You'll want at least two styles.
The Bordeaux glass is designed for the rich, full
bodied
red
wines such as Cabernets and Merlots. The wide bowl allows the
wine
to breathe and brings out the rich aromas. Because the glass is tall,
the
wine
proceeds directly to the back of the mouth allowing for maximum flavor.
The Burgundy glass is used for other full
bodied wines such as a Pinot Noir. Larger than the Bordeaux glass, the
large bowl of the Burgundy glass allows the
wine
to dispense to the tip of the tongue where it's easier to taste the
sweetness of the
wine.
White wine glasses
are smaller to help keep the wine
cool.
For less mature wines you will need a glass with an opening that's
slightly larger than the body of the glass itself. This will allow the wine
to dispense at the tip and sides of the tongue to better enjoy the
wine's
sweetness.
For more mature white wines use a taller,
straighter glass that will allow the
wine
to dispense to the rear and sides of the tongue to better taste the
bolder flavor.
Red or White wine glasses
Wine glasses follow the same tulip-shaped
design and have three essential components: the base, which keeps the
glass upright, the stem which allows one to hold the glass without
transferring one's body heat to the
wine,
and a body conducive to maximizing the flavor and aroma.
It is recommended that
wine
glasses
be composed of crystal or other similar thin glass because thick glass
is thought to influence the taste of
wine. |
