Red Wine Glasses

Red wine glasses are characterized by their rounder, wider bowl, which gives the wine a chance to breathe. The more mature and full-bodied the wine, the wider the bowl of the wine glass. The wider bowl not only promotes oxygenation or breathing but also the development of the aromas.

Since most red wines are meant to be consumed at room temperature, the wider bowl also allows the red wine to cool more quickly after hand contact has warmed it. The stem of a red wine glass is an important feature as it provides a way to hold the glass without warming the wine from body heat. It also prevents fingerprints from smearing the wine glass, and makes the glass easier to swirl.

Red wine glass sizes usually vary from under 9 ounces (270 ml) up to 14 ounces (415 ml). The shape of the red wine glass is very important, as it concentrates the aroma (or bouquet) to emphasize the varietal's characteristic. The shape of the red wine glass also directs the wine itself into the best area of the mouth from the varietal. In general, the opening of the red wine glass is not wider than the widest part of the bowl. Whereas shape can greatly enhance the enjoyment of the wine, design can make the experience a visual feast.

Chateau Red Wine XL Glass -
Designed by Bertil Vallien for Kosta Boda. When Bertil Vallien designed his Château collection over 25 years ago, it was an instant success. Since then, our drinking habits have changed radically, so that today we appreciate wine far more than we did in the eighties. In 2005, to keep up with the new trend, we modified the shape of the wine glasses. Today, they are now a little more rounded and more generously proportioned to enhance the bouquet and flavor of the wine.
