Non oaked white wines (most Sauvignon Blancs and Chablis) are young, fruity and acidic.

The best choice is a tulip shaped glass that keeps the aromas inside, takes your nose closer, and directs the wine to the middle of your mouth, avoiding the sides, where acidity is emphasized.

The best choice is a smaller U shaped bowl that keeps the aromas inside, takes your nose closer to them and directs the wine in the middle of your mouth, avoiding the sides, where acidity is emphasized.
Unoaked Chardonnay is more acidic on the palate and using this tulip glass your tongue forms a U shape and naturally guides the wine right down the center.

The narrow rim helps also to tilt your head back which accelerates the speed of the wine hitting your tongue.

A smaller bowl helps to serve smaller quantities so the wine keeps a cooler temperature. Remember to hold your glass by the stem!

This wine glass is called Montrachet.
Ideal for oaked creamy, buttery and aged Chardonnay.
The larger bowl directs the wine to the sides and the back of your mouth.
This wide rimmed glass makes you lower your head, slows down the speed and extend the area where the wine hits.
This glass is perfect for full-bodied, oaked white wines such:

• Marsanne
• Meursault
• Oaked White Rioja
• Roussanne
• Sémillon
• Viognier

The Bordeaux glass is the perfect glass for medium to full bodied red wines.

It is taller than other red wine glasses, and has a slimmer bowl.

The slimmer bowl sends the wine directly to the back of the mouth for maximum taste.

The shape of the glass does in fact change the taste of the wine!

The Burgundy glass is the perfect glass for light and fruity red wines like:

• Beaujolais
• Gamay
• Pinot Nero
• Pinot Noir
• Blaufränkisch

The Burgundy glass is broader than other red wine glasses.

The larger bowl has the function of accumulating the aromas of light and delicate red wines and release a greater amount of volatile compounds.
It also allows a proper swirling, channeling aromas upward.

In addition, the style of the glass directs the wine to the tip of your tongue.
The shape of a glass changes the way wine enters our mouth so that different receptors are stimulated.
