10 Best Wine Glasses to Make You Feel Fancy, Schmancy

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

Red, white, bubbly? Back in my college days, I used to (incorrectly) assume all vino was basically the same, and that the type of glass I was sipping it out of didn't matter. For the record, at this point in my life I was also buying $8 Piesporter with a fake I.D. from the local Rite Aid, so my knowledge of varietals and vintages was extremely limited. Back in those days (R.I.P undergrad), my girlfriends and I would drink wine out of any old thing we could find in our sorority kitchen, including red Solo cups. If you just shuddered at the thought, know that I could quite literally taste the plastic when I typed that sentence.

Now that I'm getting the hang of this thing called adulting, I realize that sipping an ice-cold Sancerre from a top-notch wine glass does actually make a difference in the overall tasting experience. Whenever I whip out a long stem glass (Olivia Pope-style, ofc), I feel like a Filthy Rich Bitch™ in the best way possible. Plus, any sommelier will tell you it's just the proper thing to do to truly experience all of the flavors in every. single. sip.

So, in an effort to upgrade your bar cart and make your next wine night as posh as humanly possible, I rounded up the best of the best wine glasses available right now. Take a peek, shop your favorites, and pour one out for your Cosmo editors who are putting in the work to bring you these bbs in the first place. *Clink*

Pastel Mixed Set of 6

Those wine charms your mom knows (and loves for some odd reason?) are now a thing of the past. That's because your guests stand zero chance of mixing up their wine glasses when each one is a different color. Available as a mixed set, each order includes a blush pink, rose, cobalt blue, lavender, mint green, and yellow hand-blown glass.

Verve Wine Glass

Seriously—show me a sleeker wine glass. This $15 bar cart ~necessity~ is tad bit dramatic in terms of presentation, sure. But can't you just picture it filled to the brim with your favorite Brut? If you don't buy it, we will.

The Half Glass Set

The devil and Kris Jenner both work hard, but honestly? These stackable wine glasses work harder. Ultra-thin and ultra-durable, these dishwasher safe stackables do the most because they double as wine glasses, rocks glasses, and your standard, run-of-the-mill water glass. Can any of the stemmed beauties below do all three? We think not.

Decanter With 4 White Wine Glasses

If the idea of owning a decanter and being *that* hostess is something you've always envisioned for yourself, then hi, may we introduce you to this sleek-as-hell set? Made In's decanter comes with four white wine glasses, making it ze perfect wedding present, hostess gift, or—let's be real here—next present to yourself.

Georgio Band Stemless Wine Glass

My all-gold-everything people will appreciate this gilded stemless set of four. No need to tuck 'em away in a cabinet—they're pretty enough to proudly display on your bar cart or sideboard.

Extreme Riesling Glasses

Don't let the sleek design fool ya. This is a sturdy set that can survive the dishwasher and your clumsy tendencies. The glasses are so good, they're often recommended by sommeliers too.

Pantry Wine Glasses, Set of 6

Hear me out: You have your ~nice~ wine glasses, and then you have your (equally as fahncy) wine glasses that are just a *tad* more durable. You know—for doling out when that one clumsy friend comes over for wine night. Hand her one of these stain-resistant stems and throw it in the dishwasher once you two polish off a bottle of pinot.

8 Piece RIEDEL Wine Friendly Wine Glasses Set

Go ahead and snag all eight of these red/white wine glasses for $100. Even if you live by yourself, they'll come in handy—trust me. (I've broken enough glasses to know that four is never enough).

Isabella Acrylic Wine Glass

Searching for a drinking glass that can double as decor? Zoom in on the long-stemmed glasses seen here. They're acrylic, so they'll survive any and all sorts of spills.

Fiorella Stemless Wine Glasses

Vintage lovers will appreciate this romantic stemless wine glass that's covered in a vine of flowers and leaves. It has all the "ooh la la" vibes you could hope for.
