Glass for wine - not just some capacity which is filled with drink. Experts agree that under a certain type of wine drink the special type of a wine glass is necessary in order that the unique bouquet of taste turned out.
The fact is that perception of drink also depends on a form of a glass. And the glass has various configuration not just like that. The form of a glass defines that space which is over wine where there is an evaporation forming that aromatic layer. Language of the person is arranged in such a way that gustatory senses are differently felt in various points. For example, the tip of language reacts to sweet, and its sides - on sour, and the most distant department - on bitter. So what glass to what wine drink? The form of a glass varies taste, at the same time playing on this feature. The wide type of a wine glass forces to drink wine small drinks. Narrow promotes that the person slightly threw back the head back, allowing drink to reach a distant part of language quickly. For today there are several types of glasses. But generally they are presented by three forms: sphere, lira and tulip. On volume the wine glasses are various: about 140-180 ml for red wine and 70-100 ml for white. The first have a roundish configuration, the second - extended. Of course, there are also other nuances. Application of a narrow glass for Burgundian, for example, won't allow to create spinning in a wine glass which gives to this wine unique aroma. Besides, the glass needs also the correct descent on a cone from above not to allow aromas to disappear during taste of wine. And the leg of a wine glass has to be long in order to avoid heating of drink in the glass and losses of its aroma.
