The basic structure of red wine glass
cup holder
The flat cup holder allows the glass to stand without tipping over, especially when full.
cup stem
The stem of the cup was created so that the drinker's hand would not be in contact with the belly of the cup, to avoid flowering the glass or allowing the body temperature to raise the temperature of the wine.
cup belly
The belly is probably the most important component of a wine glass, and it is also the most stylized. The shape and size of the belly affects the concentration and release of aromas, the degree of ventilation and the visual presentation of the wine.
The most common shape is the tulip type, which is slightly wider at the base and tapered near the top. This shape allows the wine to be shaken and observed, while the aromas are concentrated in the narrow opening, directly towards the nose. Glasses used to drink full-bodied red wines are usually wide and rounded at the bottom, in order to allow the wine to have more contact with the air and provide more room for the rich flavors and aromas to spread; while drinking glasses for white wines The bottom is relatively narrow to help keep the wine cool and to concentrate lighter aromas in a smaller space. Champagne-style glasses are thin and long to showcase the rising bubbles and to help keep the temperature low.
size
Wine glasses come in many shapes and sizes, but a rule of thumb is that the wine glass should be large enough so that there is enough room to shake the wine glass to avoid spillage, and the aroma can also spread and gather in the glass.
