wine glasses
Chalices for merlot
Wine glasses are stemmed drinking vessels designed for wine, with a bowl shape that concentrates aromas and a stem that prevents hand warmth from affecting the wine's temperature.
Different styles suit different wines—broader bowls for reds, narrower for whites, flutes for champagne.
