Which Stemless Wine Glasses are for you?
Unless you have been living under a rock these past few years, you will be well aware that there are now a plethora of Stemless Wine Glasses to choose from out there. The fact that there are hundreds of styles from hundreds of vendors, is a testament to how huge the Stemless glass market has become.
Its apparently quite important to use the correct wine glass to enhance your wines. Just like conventional glasses, stemless glasses are now designed to be varietal-specific, which basically means that there are certain glasses for certain wines.
Red Wine
Stemless Red Wine Glasses generally come in 2 styles;
The Bordeaux glass, which has quite a broad bowl and is designed to enhance full-bodied wines such as Cabernet Sauvignons, Merlots, Chiantis, Zinfandels, and of course Bordeaux’s; and the Burgundy glass, which has an even bigger and wider bowl to help accumulate aromas of the more delicate wines such as Pinot Noirs, Barolos and Burgundies.
Our recommendation: Riedel and Waterford, plus Govino for outdoor enjoyment
White Wine
When it comes to the enjoyment of white wine, there are generally 2 shapes which are most commonly used;
The stemless Chardonnay glass, which has a wide bowl and is slightly tapered at the top; and the stemless Sauvignon Blanc glass, which is normally tall and slim, with a slight taper at the top.
Our recommendation: Riedel or Libbey, plus Govino for outdoor use.
Naturally, for the ultimate in quality glassware, Crystal is the way to go. Crystal Stemless Glasses are not only aesthetically pleasing, but they are much heavier because of the lead content, and the way that crystal enhances the colors and aromas of your wines, really sets it apart from all other materials.
Don’t risk your fragile glasses while out and about!
