    Choosing Wine Glasses for Your Party

    Those who drink wine by themselves would not think of opening more than one bottle of wine, such action is usually only done
    at a larger gathering. At larger gatherings guests have the
    chance to taste different kinds of wines in a matter of a few hours.
    This is the appeal of a wineparty. In order to have an exciting wineparty, hosts
    should consider the following about wine glasses to ensure an exciting party.

    Naturally wine is served in glasses, yet it is not as simple as that.
    Different kinds of wine should be served in different types of glasses.
    Details of the different kinds of glasses and the kind of wine best served in each shall be shared.
    To understand this better however it is necessary to become familiar with
    a wineglass.

    A wineglass consists of a foot which is the bottom of the
    glass upon which a wineglass rests. Above the foot is the
    stem which connects the foot to the bowl in which the wine is actually poured.
    The top most circular region of the bowl is
    known as the rim.

    The stem of a wineglass allows the drinker to hold onto a wineglass without
    the heat from their hand passing on to the bowl and heating the contents of the bowl.
    A stem also prevents smudges from appearing on a bowl when the
    wine is being drunk. The prevention of smudges on a bowl is
    essential to visually enjoy the wine.

    A bowl of a wineglass is perhaps the most important component of a wineglass as the other
    parts of a glass are made keeping in mind the size of the
    bowl. Wineglasses have bowls which are tapered upward and have a slightly narrower opening at the rim than they
    do at the bottom of the bowl. Such a shape helps those who are drinking the wine
    enjoy the aroma because the shape of the bowl guides the wines fragrance toward the wine lovers nose.
    The bowl of a wine should be appropriate to the kind of wine
    being served. For instance a redwine requires a larger surface area to allow the wine
    to breathe and thus redwine is served in glasses which have a
    larger bowl. White wines on the other hand are served in glasses which have smaller bowls.

    Champagne is served in glasses which have a narrow bowl which
    ensures that the champagne does not decarbonate rapidly.

    The rim is also crucial to the enjoyment of a wine.
    A high quality wineglass should have a rim which is “cut” and which does not inhibit the wine as it flows out of
    the wineglass. A thin rim enables the drinker to not be distracted from the
    wine as it is being sipped. One of the best places to buy wine glasses online in India is pluschdecor.com.

    A wineglass which is crystal clear allows the color of the wine to be easily visible.
    Colored glasses and glasses which are decorated may look attractive, yet for an exciting wineparty
    clear glasses are most preferable.

    At a wineparty hosts may also be required to choose between crystal glasses or glasses made of glass.
    Simply put all crystal is glass but not all glass is crystal.
    The amount of lead in a glass determines whether the glass is simply
    glass or whether it is crystal. Lead in a glass softens
    the glass in crystal which makes it easier to cut and
    to engrave designs upon. The lead also increases the weight of the glass
    and makes it easier possible for light to refract when it passes
    through the crystal.

    The highest quality crystal wineglasses are thought to
    provide a superior wine tasting experience yet many such
    glasses are highly expensive as well. Additionally such glasses
    are more expensive to replace if they are broken which is likely as they are very fragile.

    Wine parties signal maturity and nearly everyone present at such a gathering will have grown beyond the need
    for a wild party. Having the essentials right will ensure that everyone present has an enjoyable evening tasting and discussing wines.
