You don’t have to be a master sommelier to know that not all wine glasses are created equal. Finding the right wine glass isn’t just about aesthetics, it can actually enhance the flavours and aromas of different wines to completely transform the drinking experience. The distinct shapes, materials, and design of a glass can influence how a wine breathes, how the bouquet is concentrated, and even how it hits your palate.
