Good video and thank you for being honest. I've led hundreds of wine tastings, and my position is similar to yours. You only need one or two good glasses for every type of wine. I get a lot of pushback and disagreement from people who have been to Riedel tastings. Or they own 20 different types of Xalto glasses. If you love wine glasses and you like to collect them, that's one thing. But you do not need multiple glasses to enjoy your wine. One, or maybe two, classic styles will do the job. Cheers and congratulations on the great channel!!
Well, at least we are not alone, right? 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Do nice hear that there are likeminded people. 🍷 Cheers to that!
I love ❤️ the way your fingers look when you're holding the stem of a wine 🍷 glass Agnese 💋 💋
I’m a huge fan of universal glasses for most wines (I’m a big Gabriel Glas fan). The only exception is fine Pinot Noir, it seems to me that universal glasses just don’t allow Pinot to express itself like a big bowled Burgundy glass does.
I agree. Especially wines like delicate Chard (eg high quality Chablis) and Pinot need their own large glass. The Zalto is my fav.
If I could afford I would drink all my wines from Zalto glasses, they all are so fine and beautiful. ✨
@@NoSediment One of my wine trade clients has taken me to 67 Pall Mall a few times where the house glasses are all Zalto. I'm not sure if the experience is enhanced by drinking from such fantastic glasses or worsened by the sheer terror of drinking from something that looks like it would shatter if I even just looked at it the wrong way.
Max Riedel gave a demonstration highlighting the difference that a pinot noir glass makes for pinot noir. Everyone agreed it did make a difference. I had a cold and could not tell. I need to try this again.
i would say, burgundy glass is the most versatile glass you should have in your house
I had an a-ha moment recently when, because the host did not have enough flutes to go around, I was served a basic German Sekt in a wine glass instead. I was astounded as to how much aroma the Sekt presented. I never experienced that with flutes. I will now only drink sparkling wines from my Gabriel Glas universal wine glass, which is my go-to glass when drinking good wines.
GREAT! Sparkling wines first of all are wines, and there are so much beyond the bubbles. And they should be enjoyed as much as the regular wines! I am happy that You had this experience! Cheers! 🥂🍾
Refreshing and informative information as always!
Thank you!
Cheers! I hope You enjoyed it! 🍷🥰
Good show. I'm a retired wine salesman (old school). In the early '90's, the company I was working for hosted a seminar with Georg Riedel, we had just started carrying his stemware, and one of his major points was that your palate had taste zones. Well, I thought that just explained everything!!
That said, I still use Riedel Overture red as my house glass. Enjoy your channel.
Yes, indeed, I have attended several seminars hosted by the members of Riedel family or their employees. Those are fun, especially the fact where they allow to keep the glasses, but the theory doesn’t add up for me. However, I do think their glasses are great and I do use them a lot, not for the reasons they market them though. 😅😉
I have some 10 types of wine glasses at home and choose them exactly as you: I use my mood in the day. And I use white wine glasses for traditional method sparklings almost always. Nice video again!
Thank You very much. Happy to hear that I am not the only one who enjoys variety of wine glasses and chooses them depending on the mood. 🥂 Cheers!
Great video! When I was looking for new wine glasses and liked the look of the Zalto denk'art, I bought one of each (white, universal, bordeaux, burgundy) and tested them with various wines, the same wine in 4 different glasses. After all I settled on universal and burgundy glasses. The white wine glass only worked with really, really light whites and the bordeaux glass has such a wide opening, it was sometimes hard to pick up aromas. I use the universals for champagne, white, and most red wines and the burgundy glass for pinot, nebbiolo and barbera wines (which are my favourite grape varieties)
I loved Your comment, and am happy I did not offend You with my video. We can of course choose to enjoy our wines whichever way we like and that includes choice of the wine glasses. And it is best that we choose and not someone else for us. Thank You’ 🙏🏻
excelente video...gracias😎
Thank You! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥂 Cheers!
Great video Agnes and you are spot on. The Gabriel Glas has been mentioned, and I agree that it is a great all-around glass. It is my "go to" glass for all wine styles including Pinot Noir.
Great to hear that, and thank You for the compliment. To be honest, I was really worried about this video. 🥹
Before starting wine appreciation, I had laying around beer snifters (~330ml) and brandy glasses (~750ml) as well as flutes (for Prosecco and Cava). The first two types (with stems and clear-colored) have worked quite well for enjoying still wines, particularly since they are mostly of the aromatic white and bolder red varieties. They have also had the added bonus of being relatively sturdy quality.
Hahaha, that is one thing missing in the wine glass world -> sturdiness! But as I have told in the video, if You enjoy the glasses and they work for You, than You shouldn’t feel obligated to buy other glasses only because some other people say so! 😅
Definitely need the tulip glass for champagne! Best combination for seeing the bubbles and maximizing taste. But maybe I can repurpose it for red too.
For Champagne I always use either narrower white wine glass or Champagne Wine glass, which is wider than flute! 🥂
Kind of agree with most of what you said. I have some Riedel, Zalto as well as the new-ish Spiegelau Definition. Usually when I'm not sure I just pick 2 or 3 glasses, pour a bit of the wine in and smell and taste which one suits this one the most. Incidentally the Riedel Veritas New World Pinot Noir goes amazingly well with barrel aged Russian Imperial Stouts.
For a while my favourite wine glass was Riedel New World Pinot Noir, and I would enjoy all my wines from it. Now it is New World Syrah. I guess it also depends. I didn’t know about the beers though. 😉 Cheers! 🍷
Hi there! I was just curious if you ever got around to getting (and trying) the Conterno Sensory glasses?
Feels super balanced in the hand and my personal #1 pick over Zalto bdx/brg
No, I did not. 🤦♀️ But thank You for reminding me. I do love all kinds of glasses. And these were ones that I truly wanted to try. 🤔
My daily driver at the moment is a riedel xtreme cabernet, which i got a set of really cheap so i dont mind smashing them too much and i use them for basically everything. Works fine.
Exactly! 🙌🙌🙌 Sometimes my ‘daily glass’ changed though. For a while it was New World Pinot Noir, and now it is New World Syrah 🤷♀️
I bought the bromioli ones that match the bottles they sell.
I was a big Zalto fan. Pinot Noir glass and the Universal for whites but recently discovered the Conterno Sensory glass. Designed for Nebbiolo wines but they work beautifully with all varieties and are more curved and rounded and not angular like the Zaltos. Gorgeous to look at and to drink from.
I have to find and try the Conterno glasses, many here have commented that they are really good! 🙌
@@NoSediment
They are beautiful compared to an angular Zalto.
I think you’ll like them.
To notice an aroma its concentration must be higher than its detection level. OAV Odor Activity Level (concentration/detection level) must thus be higher than one. The detection level of an aroma depends on its molecular structure which we can not influence. But we can influence the concentration of aromas in a glass. E.g. by increasing temperature or as I have shown below optimize the geometrical shape of the glass.
To detect aromas the important factor is to reach a high concentration of aroma molecules in the glass. When we inhale through the nose the concentration should be as high as possible i.e. number of aroma molecules per cm3.
I have found that the important factor is the ratio between height and diameter. My research has shown that the diameter should be at least 80 mm and the ratio should be around 1.5 to maximize the aroma index. (To detect color and taste in another thing.). Aromas evaporate from the surface of the wine and on the sides if we swirl the glass. We can calculate the area and assume that each mm2 releases a certain number of aroma molecules. We can also calculate the volume of air in the glass. The concentration of aromas can then be estimated as an aroma index = evaporating area *100 divided by the occupied volume. We want a high concentration. A glass with a diameter of 200 mm and a height of 120 will have an aroma index of 2. The aroma index for a glass with the same height but a smaller diameter will be 5. Thus the small glass will have a higher concentration of aromas per volume unit and that is the important criterion for our receptors in the nose. More than twice as much. Making it easier to detect aromas.
I think for each aroma there is a detection threshold.
The thing that got me on the wine education track (I have a NWS somm1 and a WSET L2 AW) was the difference between drinking Marlborough Sauv Blanc from a "standard" wine glass vs a Sauv Blanc glass. My friends and I found it to be a better experience/taste drinking it from the sauv blanc glass, and were quite surprised to know it was the same wine in both glasses! This not only started my path as a wine nerd, but also as a fan of using different style glasses depending on what I am drinking.
With that said, I tend to drink sauv blanc, and other aromatics (including riesling) out of sauv blanc glasses. Sometimes fruity reds out of Burgundy glasses. And everything else in Gabriel Glass "standards". So I suppose I have my likes when it comes to glass styles, and am a believer of it making a difference... but at the same time, am pretty lax about it with only three styles of wine glasses in my house. (not mentioning the ISO tasting glasses)
Thanks for this video, Agnese!
It is so interesting that You say that, because at WSET all the wines are tasted from the same glass in the classrooms and at the exams. I have always had my doubts about the glasses, and this was the environment where educational force finally said it out loud. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 But as I say in the video - we should enjoy wine from whatever wine glasses we prefer the best, and if we feel like having different glasses (for whatever reasons) we should. Thank You for Your insightful comment and cheers! 🍾🥂
Do you know if the thickness of the glass makes a difference? Ive been using riedel which are really thin but tough to replace when they break
I just returned from a trip to France where I discovered Lehmann stemware. They are located in Reims and are the lightest glasses that I have used.
Those are really great, I love them. And use them at my wine shop/lounge. 🙌 But, there are another brand that is more fragile, Zalto. Those are epic as well! 🍷
2:59 hilarious scene 😂
After trying lots and lots of glasses, my opinion is that you can * get away* with one glass, but ideally you should have two. You definitely don't need more than that. I like the Zalto Bordeaux + the Riedel Performance Riesling (if I had to choose only one of these, it would be the Zalto). I also keep a set of cheap glasses around for company and for when I don't want to break out the fancy crystal. So 2 nice glasses + a set of cheap ones.
I think You are absolutely correct. I made this video, more as a theoretical idea, making sure that I tackle the issue (which is selling/marketing based in half truths). But I have many wine glasses at home, and I use them all. And if person wants to have a wider glass for Pinot Noir style wines and narrower for whites, it is completely fine and reasonable. Though At professional tastings I always get away with only one style of glass, and have never seen anyone bringing several wine glasses for each style. 😂😂😂
Right now I'm drinking Aussie Pinot Noir from a coffee cup. Tastes perfectly fine.
Now, I do find that Riesling does best in a narrow-ish champagne flute. JMO.
Hahah, that is great! I am guessing a bit differently to catch the aroma compounds, but taste should be nice, if the wine is nice! 😅😂
I like a larger size of unbreakable Govino. 20 years or so ago I had a stroke and there is reassurance in knowing I can't scatter shattered glass across the floor. (Years ago, before my misfortune I liked Les Impitoyables le Taster but even before the stroke I had many accidents with these).
Thank You for the comment and Your input. I have to check these wine glasses out, I have one wine glass in my wish list, that is advertised as unbreakable. But each cost like 180eur, and I am still convincing myself that it is worth it. 🤞🤞🤞
Ah you had my favorite- Reidel Veritas champagne glass
I also like it a lot and enjoy Champagne from. 😉
Is there a brand of wine glass you like best? Also, I heard that for sparkling wines the glass should have a catalyst mark at the bottom. I normally only see this in a fluted glass, are there normal wine glasses with this?
Well, I use many wine glass brands, the top would be Zalto, Riedel and Lehmann. And yes, some champagne wine glasses will have a mark at the bottom, for bubbles to form. I don’t always look for it, as it is not critical for me. (+ if You use Your wine glasses actively those scratches will appear naturally with time 😅😂). But I don’t think that producer will add that mark for a wine glass that they don’t consider a ‘sparkling wine glass’
For me a mason jar will suffice! 😂
Kidding aside, you're spot on 100% and regarding both arguments!
For one, it doesn't really make a difference, while at the same time you should enjoy your wine whatever glass from you feel like.
I tend to use the standard Gabriel Glass most of the time.
Another thing; when it comes to presents for wine lovers, a set of wine glasses is always welcome! I lost count on how many of these glasses I've broken, lol!
Yes, yes, and Yes! You are completely correct on all aspects. And especially the one regarding the gifts. Those extra light and fragile wine glasses tend to break a lot, and we (wine enthusiasts) always need more. 🙌🙌🙌🍾 Cheers! 🥂
@@NoSediment 🍷🥂
Thanks for this, it needed to be said.
Thank You! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥂
What about glasses why flat bases (not bowl shaped)? I've seen them becoming very trendy. They're mostly advertised to drink white wines with.
Hi I am from India, planning to start wine distillery in India
🙌🙌🙌 Hi, all the good luck with that. To be honest I know very little about distillation. 😢 But I hope my wine channel can be of help to You. 🥂
@@NoSediment yes sure
Distilled wine 🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️
I find it more to do with the size and opening of the glass. Smaller opening is better for less aromatic wines to concentrate aroma. Larger glass makes some wine rounder and fresher. Maybe it’s due to the volume it delivers at each sip?
This is comparing the King decorated goblet, mafia small round globe, iso glass, Cab glass, pinot bowl.
I have a question though. Do heavy oaked whites fare better in a wider opening Cab style glass? To dissipate the oak and review the fruit maybe?
It is very difficult to answer Your question, because we all do not perceive aromas the same. So what for one would be intense, for other would be mild. Therefore, I didn’t talk about the specific wine glasses or shapes, as we each might have our favourite ones, and that is fine.
Regarding the taste though- each of us of course also have own unique experience, but I forget to note one thing - if we taste wine the way they teach You in schools, allowing it to cower whole tongue, teeth and gums, then we should get whole picture, no matter what the vessel we are enjoying it from. 😅
I have one wine glass. I use it for everything and it doesn't even have a stem, just a flat bottom and you can't even knock it over. Wine doesn't taste any different in it than in any other glass.
Hahahaha, good one! Yeah, it shouldn’t taste different! 🙌🙌🙌
If I have a girl over for a nice dinner, and serve 2 different wines, I really feel having 2 different shaped glasses is a nice touch. Of course it isn't necessary. Stemless glasses are great for dishwashers, every day wines, and not getting broken as easily by kids and pets - they aren't for special wines or special occasions, but they are worth having. The temperature argument is valid, however I only hold a wine glass for long periods of time in a social setting - enjoying a glass of wine by myself, and I set it down unless actively drinking. It wasn't mentioned, but you should experiment - does cab taste the same or better or worse to you in a Burgundy glass? This is the biggest reason to buy or not buy a different glass.
Of course it is a nice touch, I would be very impressed if my date would have two different shaped wine glasses for each wine. 😉 I hope it tastes the same, as I do my exams always with the same glasses, as all of the students, for all the wines. I am not arguing against the difference in aroma, but for taste - if we swirl wine around in our mouth so it touches all the tongue, there is no reason it should taste differently. 🤔🤔🤔
I have fun with the aesthetics of wine glasses, and have fun with variety for that reason. The only real debate is with bubbles: do you go for more aromatics, or more of a flute to see the bubbles travel? For a quality champagne, I take the tulip. A value Prosecco, maybe the flute.
For me Riedel has done a great job with Veritas Champagne Wine glass, that is small enough (and they actually have a irritation spot at the bottom where bubbles are created) therefore I can enjoy the stream of pearls. But it is sufficiently large to highlight the aromas. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 but even if I don’t see the bubbles, I don’t mind, as long as I feel them on the palate. Cheers and thank You for the comment. 🥂
Right now Maximilian Riedel is breaking his clothes, 😂😂 I also totally share your point of view, since I started in the world of wine I always thought that the issue of glasses is only marketing, I use the burgundy glass and the pinot noir glass of 475 ml my favorite for the design is the pinot noir. PDT: happy prosecco day.
I hope he is not! 😳 I do like their glasses, and I think their glassware is very beautiful, but unfortunately I don’t believe that each grape needs its own glasses. 😬
@@NoSediment Exactly, one glass per vine is not necessary... the Riedel's are very pretty but expensive... 😭 cheers!!
Cheers! And thank You for supporting me on other channels as well! 🍷
“Those who came up with this idea “ cough … Riedel !
To be fair i would buy more for the aesthetics than the other reasons.
My favorite is Riedel’s Bordeaux extreme.
My favourite glasses usually change over the time. Currently it is the Veritas Syrah, Riedel family says it is also the most versatile. 🥂🥂🥂
@@NoSediment i appreciate your response, i tried the Riedel performance Syrah and felt the stem was too delicate , but liked the shape, i may just buy the veritas .
I’ve heard this before about not using stemless glasses because you don’t want to warm up the wine. Really? How long touching a glass would it take to noticeably warm a glass? When you drink cold milk or orange juice in a regular glass, does it come to body temperature? I have trouble believing that wine will warn up in the time it takes to drink a glass.
As opposed to a juice or milk, wine glass is usually not finished within few minutes. And while at the restaurant You might have option to place Your glass of wine on the table, when You are at the wine tasting or even simple party or gathering - You might spend most (sometimes all) the time standing with that glass in Your hand. And during that time it gets to Your body temperature very quickly.
@@NoSediment you've obviously never had wine with me! "A few minutes" is about right! I do prefer wine glasses with stems at home, but I'm not convinced of the physics of this.
(looks Agnese in the eyes...while holding a red plastic cup) 🙃 Serious talk now... I see stemless wine glasses like Pajama- onesies, good for lazy evenings in front of the TV (or PC) with snacks.
Hahaha, I really don’t mind the stemless glasses, but practically wine glasses with stems makes more sense. 🍷
Many years ago (at least 25) I bought a number of Riedel Vinum Chardonnay glasses and use the survivors (I have broken a few) as my everyday drinking. They are not to large and not to small and I find them 'just right' for the majority of wines. Saying that I also have a small number of their Bordeaux and Pinot Noir glasses which I found for an incredibly reasonable price (5 British Pounds for two) at a local discount store..Bargain!.
Yes, I agree, wine glasses do break, therefore when finding a good bargain, one must use the opportunity. 🙌
Como Sur?
And are those different dogs?
No, the same old dogo! 😂🤫
Never liked Champagne flutes. Always seemed too condensed and narrow. I only use my coupes for cocktails. I do like the modern Champagne glasses that have a larger bowl but taper to a smaller opening. This way one can safely swirl their champagne and release the aromas with minimal scent escaping. Also appreciate nucleated varieties to aid the “pearls”. White wine glass of course works equally well, but it’s like attending a dinner function in formal attire or sofa loungewear… the food will taste the same, but the formal attire symbolizes the event as special, celebratory. Nobody, yet, attends weddings in pajamas. We place significance on the emblematic
You have made a very good points, thank You. I agree with Your point and often will use the nicest Champagne glasses just to enjoy the moment more.. or add it a bit of weight. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻✨🥂 Cheers!
@@NoSediment I appreciate your courage to broach this subject. I always say the same lol… if you swirl or chew the wine don’t you hit all your taste buds? 🤣👏
I kind of disagree with the main synopsis. While universal Bordeaux shapes are ideal for many wines and even champagne, for Chard and Pinot large burgundy shapes (such as Zalto oder Josephinenhütte) are the way to go imho.
So 2 glasses it is.
What I want to say is that let’s use whatever glasses we want and like our wine to be enjoyed from. We are paying for the wine and it should be enjoyed the way we want it! Easy as that! 🙌🙌🙌What I am against is marketing programme that is based on semi-truths. If You feel better to have choice of 2 glasses -> Great, that works as well! 🙌🙌🙌
If I could only use one glass, it would be Josephine No. 2. what I actually use are Josephine No. 1, 2 and 3.
It is crazy how much more you smell with these glasses.
I have to check out these glasses! 🥂
We had a wine 'tasting' experience several years ago at a winery where one unidentified wine was poured into different shaped stemware... For some odd reason, the same wine smelled and tasted different from the different glasses.. My wife, who is NOT a wine drinker, even participated and concurred with the results.... Why is this the case ? I have no idea !
Well, I will never argue againts different aroma. :) but if we taste wine the way they teach You in the wine books (swirling throughout all the palate, tongue, gums) there is no reason wine would taste different - no matter the vessel You are drinking it from. And then there is a power of word. If in front of You is someone who is moderating the tasting (and selling wine glasses) they will talk and lead You to believe that there is a difference. 🤷♀️ 😅😅😅
@@NoSediment Good points. Especially the power of suggestion !
I believe you should follow up with a blind tasting from different glasses to proove your claim, that the glass plays no role in taste. My experience is very much different.
Glass plays no role especially in taste. I could be convinced otherwise about the nose though. Taste -> if You swirl the wine on Your palate and let the wine touch all of Your mouth, tongue, teeth and gums, it literally makes no sense what vessel You drink Your wine from. I have been to many tastings organised by retailers and glass manufacturers, these are more fun than scientific unfortunately. 🤷♀️
There's no way you can go about such a test unbiased as you can't ignore the glasses' other properties (weight, volume, geometry, weight distribution etc.). That said, happy for you if you found your way (no irony here). I for my part agree with Agnese, and I've had my share of "glass tests".
@@NoSediment I believe to have noticed a difference with sparkling wine, Riesling, Pinot Noir and Barolo (but that is what I usually drink). My regular glass is labeled "Universal" by the manufacturer and I switched to a champagne glass and a wider (for me Pinot but manufacturer calls it Bordeaux) glass and I thought they are better fits (smell and taste), but I will continue testing the hypothesis.
@@cyranotu People who claim that glass makes no difference assuming the basics (large bowl etc.) are there should do a simple tasting test. After reading up on Riedel and how glasses don't matter, just for the fun of it I've done just that -- same wine, just different glasses -- and the experience was shockingly different. Not just different, but shockingly different. Then I repeated the experiment with my wife and wine friends and everybody agrees the difference is absolutely noticeable. So... Yeah, a good universal glass is fine, but if you want it all, you need a bit more in your cupboard.
Hi, Agnese.
I think, generally You are right.
But I would like to offer you a challenge - try some wine from a porcelain cup.☕
Unbelievable feelings.🤣
I have never done that before! Only the tea goes in the porcelain cup! 😉😉😉🤫
@@NoSediment especially for red wines.🍷🤪
@@NoSedimentaccording to your advice drink using whatever you want which also means a porcelain tea cup and since the wine will get in your mouth anyway and touch all of your tongue it should taste the same. But curious you mentioned the glass does affect the aromas but aromas also affect how we perceive taste. But at the end of the day if wine taste the same for you if its in a can, box, bowl, wine glass or sippy cup its ok as long as you are enjoying your wine. 😊

"There are companies who have invested...."
Can't imagine who you might be thinking of!
I've a few to chose from at home but it's rare that I use anything other than Spiegelau Authentis Bordeaux glasses. Nice enough and versatile enough for most wine and robust enough to cope with day to day use.
Unless I'm mistaken, the Spiegelau brand is owned by "a company which has invested..."
I think it is owned by that company. But in all honesty I didn’t mean to trash any company, I just wanted to be honest about what I believe in. And share that with everyone. 🤷♀️
That's definitely a different take on wine glasses. Most videos I've seen advocate for a universal glass of some sort. This is the first one that goes here are the basics to get an optimal style of wine glass beyond that if your wallet permits go for it
Well, I don’t advertise wine glasses, and don’t get paid for anything. Therefore, I can only share which wine glasses I like the best, but it can be different from what You enjoy the most. When we are talking about how wine glasses shape the flavours (which is not true) we cannot talk about the aesthetics of them, which in my opinion is very important. I have many wine glasses because I just love them. 🍾 Cheers!
@@NoSediment I've got some ridel , the Gabriel glass which seems to be climbing in price ,plumm A and B which I think is an Australian brand and a few versions of Lehmann . I picked based on the wine and how much stress I want during the dishwashing process that follows
Wine glass shape DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Are You shouting? 😳 I said that shape should be with a more narrow opening than I bowl itself, that allows aromas to gather. 😉 However, it makes no difference for the tasting. If You are tasting wine, and swirling it in Your mouth, touching all the tongue, teeth and gums, it doesn’t matter from which vessel You sipped the wine. 🤷♀️
Part of the age of consumerism, you find it everywhere now and you should always be suspicious of perceived needs. You can't buy a pair of socks these days without "having" to consider a dozen different specialized applications for them.
Consumerism and strong marketing! Plus, these companies support so much events and somms that they simply cannot publicly talk later that they don’t believe in needing different glasses for different grapes. This is why I have so much respect for Jancis Robinson. 🍷
I just have 1 wine glass type for all my wines (red/white), unless it's champagne. Glass wine manufacturing companies are a racket.
It is completely fine. 🍷
Wine glasses truly have absolutely nothing with taste, however if you really understand vine you can smell different in glasses for yourself and if you understand chemistry of vine, then you now that if you put riesling in Burgundy glass aroma will be gone in 10 minuts and if you put pinoit noir in Shyraz glass or some white whine, then it's gonna take much more time to "wake" aroma.
But it can't be something surprising, every somelier knows that oxingen have huge influence on aromatic of wine.
Oxygen, of course can have huge impact on wine, that however, doesn’t mean that one wine glass offers way more and way less oxygen - especially if You swirl the wine. 🤷♀️
@@NoSediment Bigger area size bigger vaporising of aromatic substances 🤷🏻 when you have wine who has small amounts of aromatic substances you need narrower.
@@pavelgregr3568I understood Your logic. But we are swirling the wine, and that process introduces way more oxygen to the wine to a point when surface area becomes a minor player. 🤷♀️
@@NoSediment Yeah of course for someliers who pour, swirl and drinks you can drink it from whisky glass and it won't change much, but in restaurant when they give you wine to drink while eating it's not enough one swirl won't make wine suddenly aromatic, and substances in white wine just need less space where is contact with oxigen 🤷🏻♂️.
@@NoSediment And I agree that there are lots of useless wine glasses but Burgundy, Shiraz, Chardonnay and Riesling are glasses that should be every good place with wine have. Maybe Bordeaux but it's more tradition than actual meaning
2 different good wine glasses are more than enough for 90% of the wines. my opinion.
Agreed! Bet sometimes even one is enough! 😂
what if there are no glasses, but a bottle of Petrus is open, how experts handle this? drink or pass ? 😅
Please grow your hair back! 😊 good info. 👌🏽
Will do my best’ 🤷♀️ Cheers! 🥂
We all know that the BEST wine glasses come from, GOODWILL! and Cheap! LOL Forty dollars for wine glass NO thank you LOL
Hahaha, I had no idea! 🤷♀️
I still love your channel though! :) :) ! @@NoSediment
@@NoSediment I owe you an apology!!! I was in a small store in Portland Maine and, the wine glasses were as much as 80 dollars!!!! I apologize,, you were right!
This is just plain wrong. Buy new world Pinot Noir. Buy a Riedel Bourgogne and a Bordeaux wine glass from the same collection (Sommelier or SuperLeggero) and try the wine in BOTH glasses. Is there a difference? You tell me? :)
Do You work for Riedel? 😉
I wish@@NoSediment
I like your channel *subbed* @@NoSediment
For me this is more propaganda than facts. No sources, lot of „some say“, „all say“ - if you tried the same wine from different glasses you can just taste the difference
Exactly that is propaganda, it cannot taste different because when You taste wine professionally You allow it to cover all of Your palate, so how can it really taste different then? Fighting and telling that glass matters in taste I have seen only amongst glass sellers and manufacturers. 😅
