Over the years, I’ve amassed quite a collection of wine glasses. It has proved to be very useful as my mood for wine vessels changes all the time. Some evenings, I might like to drink red wine out of a short rocks glass while eating pizza. Or prosecco out of an ornate moroccan cup. Because I spend so many evenings presenting appropriate stemware to guests for their chosen wines, it’s nice to come home and play by my own rules. Which are no rules.
BUT, as I slowly and surely approach “adulthood”, I feel as though I need to commit to a somewhat unified aesthetic. I need a great multi-purpose glass for entertaining. I love a good stemless glass for reds and lambrusco, but don’t know if I could live with stemless for EVERY wine. If I were to go with a set, I always love the elegance of Schott Zweisel. And their Classico line is timeless with a not too tall stem, which is my usual complaint with them. On the more affordable front, Riedel has a line for Target called the Vivant collection. A great starter set for anyone.
So, what style of glass is your jam?
