Wine drinking is rapidly on the rise in amche Pune. It is trendy to serve and order wine in parties and restaurants and more and more people are switching from whiskeys and scotches to wines. Serving wines in the right glass is very important; in fact wine tasting and wine appreciation is a matter that requires the use of all senses and that includes viewing and smelling. A wrong glass can ruin the best of wines and can completely change the perception of a wine. Just like food, a great wine is adored for its looks, its smell, and its flavor and, therefore, holds so much delicious potential for the eyes, nose, and mouth. Why should you drink the right wine in the right glass? The shape of the wine glass controls the direction in which the wine will flow into the tongue. And that can make all the difference in enhancing its flavor. Choosing wine glasses, also known as stemware, is essential to reflect the best of the wine. The shape, size and color of a wine glass can dramatically affect your perception of the wine that's contained in it. Every wine has a definite set of aromas and wine glasses designed for specific wine styles succeed in enhancing these aromas.

Glass rims are designed to deliver the wine to a certain part of one's tongue to bring out the characteristics of the wine. Ideally, a wine connoisseur should have separate glasses for young whites, complex whites, fruity reds and tannic reds. Glasses for red wine are characterized by their round, wide bowls, which gives the wine enough space to breathe. White wine glasses are generally narrower compared to red wines glasses. This allows the chilled wine to retain its temperature. The reduced surface area of the glass means less air circulating around the glass. Champagne flutes are tall, with long stems and a narrow bowl. The glass is designed to be held by the stem so that the heat from one's hand does not warm the wine. The bowl is also designed in a manner to help retain the signature carbon dioxide in the beverage. These flutes have a narrow opening which offer less surface area for the tiny bubbles to escape.
