Wine Glasses: the Who, the Why, the What Do I Do?
Listen now
Description
Is it important to drink specific wines out of certain glasses? Are champagne flutes a myth? When did humans start drinking out of glass? Are there really rules? All of these mysteries and more will be revealed! A nice bottle of wine does deserve a nice glass... but not all glasses are created equal, cost the same, or feel the same. Let’s look back at the OG days of wine glasses — I’m talking metal goblets and the earliest days of glass blowing. But then, we’ll zoom forward and discuss the latest wine-drinking vessel trends from the casual table glass to the super swanky. Wine glass recommendations: The crème de la crème is the Zalto wine glass brand — this is what I like to drink out of at home but they are extremely thin and breakable so… maybe don’t get attached! Other brands I love: Gabriel-Glas Vintage sets!! I look for mine at thrift stores and use them for parties because if they break it's all good! I love the glasses we use at Jon & Vinny's! You can purchase a set of 6 through our website! Hosted and Executive Produced by Helen Johannesen. Produced by Dear Media.
