Wine Glasses?

I am planning a wine tasting party and need to purchase more wine glasses. How expensive should I go? and should I use a type of glass made for both red and white wines? Any advice would be appreciated!

There are so many wine glasses on the market. You can easily find the ideal stemware to fit both your budget and needs.

Red wine is better in the large bowl glasses because they allow oxygen to get mixed in with the wine, which “airs” the wine and reduces excessive tannins. You can just go ahead and serve white wine in them as well or purchase some smaller glasses for white wines.

The top wine glasses for tasting wine is generally considered to be Riedel. They are great quality glasses. You can find some cheaper brands that are also good. Another quality brand that comes to mind that is less expensive is Spiegelau.

I would definitely suggest that you not use plastic wine glasses for a wine tasting party. The plastic can interfere with the flavor of the wine.

Have fun at your party!
