The 12 Best Wine Glasses For Every Type

Not all wine glasses were created equal. It turns out, everything from the width of the bowl to the size of the stem can influence how you taste and experience a crisp white or a full-bodied red. Then, there’s the matter of design: Do you go classic or colorful? Long-stemmed or tumbler-style? Coupe or flute? A lot of it is ultimately up to personal preference—but just in case you need a kickstarter, we’ve rounded up 12 great options to help you get a jump on building out your glassware collection.

We found practical yet sculptural designs and dainty mouth-blown pieces; iridescent coupes and stout, all-purpose vessels. (Plus the usual assortment of classic styles, in case you're looking for something more traditional). Whatever you’re in the market for, any of these pieces deserves a spot in your barware cabinet.
