Red Wine Glass

Medium to full-bodied red wines of most styles.

The Shape

A tall bowl with a moderately wide base tapering to a narrower opening, giving wine room to breathe while keeping aromatics in the glass.

How the Bowl Affects Aroma

The generous bowl increases the surface area of the wine, allowing oxygen to soften tannins and lift darker fruit and spice aromatics toward the nose.

How the Rim Affects Drinking

A slightly inward-curving rim funnels the aromas and directs the wine to the middle of the palate, softening the perception of alcohol.
