The Schott Zweisel Wine Glass Collection - Which One Is Yours?
Impressive both in size and shape, the glass you use to drink and taste wine continues to bring renown to the prestigious wine experience. It is believed that the shape of the glass has something to do with the flavor and aroma (or bouquet) of wine.
Most wine glasses have a stem. Like a goblet or chalice, they are composed of a bowl, stem, and foot.
Some are designed with a narrower opening of the glass, and others come in a more conical shape. The bowls of these glasses come fuller with a larger opening to allow you to dip your nose into the glass and sense the aroma.
"Red wine glasses are defined as rounder with a wider bowl to increase the rate of oxidation. As oxygen from the air chemically interacts with the wine, flavor, and aroma are believed to be subtly altered. This process of oxidation is generally considered more compatible with red wines, whose complex flavors are said to be smoothed out after being exposed to air. Red wine glasses can have particular styles of their own." Wikipedia
