Best Champagne Glasses in 2022

Close your eyes and imagine yourself bringing a glass of champagne to your mouth. Can you feel the bubbles bursting? Each of them reveals the aroma of ripe grapes with a subtle hint of yeast. Now try. Cool, slightly tart drink tickles the palate and gives you an extravaganza of taste and endless bliss.

All this can be felt if you drink champagne from the right glasses. And there are several types of them. How they look and how to choose the right champagne glasses in 2022 we will tell in this article.

Even if it seems that the choice of glasses is about savoir-vivre, not everything is so simple. A nice 100% glass gives the desired taste effect. Especially when it comes to champagne, when drinking the solemnity of the atmosphere is important.

The shape of the glass affects the perception of the taste and aroma of this alcoholic drink. Special types of champagne glasses provide their original perception.

The shape of the glass is not a whim of the glassware manufacturer, but the result of a long search for a magical balance that will allow the wine to show itself in all its splendor. And if there is a wide variety among still wine glasses, then everything is much simpler for sparkling wines.

With a well-chosen glass it will be possible to extract the full depth of the drink, feel its aroma and taste, see the natural color of some types of champagne. Each bubble will effectively rise to the top of the glasses. “Tulip”, “flute” and “coupe” are three types of glasses designed for champagne and sparkling wines in general.

Champagne is usually served in long, narrow glasses called flutes.

Neat rows of bubbles rise from the bottom and surface of the walls in even rows, forming a beautiful dance.

On the surface, they burst and release the entire palette of sparkling wine flavors.

In such vessels, bubbles can linger for 2-3 minutes, which is important for the feeling of a holiday.

This type of glass has a thin and long stem that allows you to hold it in your hand without affecting the temperature of the sparkling wine.

As the glass tapers slightly towards the top, the drinks served retain their taste and aroma for longer.

The narrow and tall glasses are suitable for any sparkling wine: exquisite French champagne, popular prosecco in Italy or the Spanish cava. The flute is suitable for those who prefer to have universal champagne glasses.

A wide coupe de champagne glass was created specifically for champagne wines in England in the 17th century.

Previously, sparkling wines were less sparkling and sweeter. Therefore, the coupe was quite suitable for this drink.

Today this form has a big drawback.

Due to the wide throat, the carbon dioxide evaporates too quickly and the champagne loses its flavor. It simply exhales.

Therefore, you will not experience any pleasure from tasting such a drink.

Coupe will not be able to reveal and preserve all the advantages of sparkling wine.

Coupe is recommended for sweet and sweet sparkling wines produced with the charmat method, as well as for sparkling wine-based cocktails.

Today it is also used, but more as a decorative element. Luxurious pyramids are built with such glasses at buffet tables and receptions. The frothy drink is poured into the upper glass and flows like a waterfall that shines in the light of the lamps to the lowest level. It looks absolutely amazing.

Champagne Tulip Glass

Tulip is the most correct champagne glass.

The shape resembles a half-open tulip bud. On a high or medium leg, it expands towards the center and tapers slightly upwards.

You need to fill it 2/3 full to make space for the foam. And there, in the empty part, all the aroma of the drink is concentrated.

The game of flowing bubbles fascinates with its beauty.

A fairly wide mouth allows the champagne to open in all its splendor and recognize the slightest tones of the drink.

They come together in a single bouquet, and you breathe it in with pleasure every time before a sip.

This form will present the sparkling wine in all its glory.

Tulip is suitable for aged sparkling wines and classic champagnes. The wide shape of the glass gives the wine the necessary space, allowing the sparkling wine to reveal its notes and taste to the maximum.

Which Champagne Glass is the Best?

When choosing a sparkling wine glass for your home collection, you need to focus on your taste preferences.

If you are a fan of young flowery sparkling wines, for example an ardent admirer of prosecco, then graceful flutes will do for you.

At the same time, pay attention to the shape of the glass and choose it slightly narrower towards the top.

If you are a lover of champagne, cava or other sparkling wines produced with the classic method, then tulips should be in your collection.

Pay attention to the volume of the glass. It should preferably be 300-330 ml.

The tapered glass should have a wide enough top to hold the aroma in the glass and make it comfortable to drink.

Is it better to opt for Champagne Coupe Glass?

Recently, glasses for champagne and sparkling wines are becoming larger in volume.

It is already quite common to see a 300ml or larger sparkling wine glass.

A coupe glass, associated with supreme luxury, becomes something really special.

The revival of glass, popular in the early 20th century, takes us back to the era of the Great Gatsby and creates a vivid image of carelessness and fun, filling it with a sense of celebration.

But it is worth remembering that such a glass is not for champagne.

When the coupe came into use, they mostly drank sweet champagne and the pressure in the bottle was lower.

Champagne Glass in Crystal is a Must

Regardless of the type, champagne glasses must have a number of characteristics.

The first is obviously the material.

For example, glass is a rather rough material and makes the flute be thick-walled and brittle.

For elegant champagne, you should give preference to crystal.

This material is stronger and the glass walls are thinner.

It means that the contact of the material with the drink, the skin and the taste buds is less.
