The Right Glass Matters

It is clear from the sheer variety of wine glasses that the glass can make a differnce in the enjoyment of wine.  Of course all of glasses can be a bit confusing for the average wine drinker, even true wine lovers are'nt always sure why the right glass is the right one. Some basic Rhino wine gear and know how can transform even a basic bottle of wine into an experiance. 

While the tallness of the stem of thickness of the bowl are just as much aestestic as appearance, but the shape of the bowl is essential.  Tall, thin champagne flutes are shaped as they are because it showcases the pretty bubbles without letting all of it fizz away.  White wine is at its best in slightly smaller than average tulip shaped glasses because they keep the small amount of wine cool where a larger amount may get too warm.  Reds on the other hand go just fine in larger bowls but they need a larger opening to areate the wine more.  A simple medium bowl with a tulip shape works well for most wine, just make sure that the opening is large enough to areate reds and that it doesn't get filled as much to keep whites cool and crisp like they should be.
