Do I really need different glasses for different types of wines?

I have been to a Riedel seminar where we tasted Burgundy wines in a Bordeaux glass and a Bordeaux in a Burgundy glass. It makes an amazing difference in the aromas and flavors. It is the same with Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, so if you want to get the most from your wine, I would recommend the different shapes.

It does matter. It has to do with the shape of the glass. I don't know exactly how it works but I do know from drinking plenty over the years not believing thinking it was a ploy to get you to buy more I am now a believer. I also only buy riedel, they are my favorite choice of glassware.

Either one. We even use them for mixed drinks. They are larger than a normal red wine glass. Filled to the rim it holds almost 2 cups. 1 cup fills to the top of the notch for the thumb. Thus, the picture is showing a 6 oz pour...

It depends on the size of the opening of the bottle itself. Bottling wine, I've bought bottles that used a size 7 cork, and some that called for a size 8. It's specific to what kind of bottle you are using. When you buy the bottles, the person or company you buy them from should be able to tell you which to use.

Should be fine. I blend in glasses all the time. No contact with glass at all.

I guess it depends on the size of your glass? The price? What are you asking exactly?

I tried a Riedel Magnum wine glass. It was a perfect fit. It is a rather large glass with a short stem.

It depends on the size of the bowl part of the glasses. I have two champagne glasses, two white wine glasses and two large red wine glasses on mine.

I use multiple types of bottles for my wine making and the rack fits all bottles. If you start stacking bottles, then you need to use just one type of bottle.

The feel on the fingers is definitely different but I haven't noticed a smell or taste difference in the same way I have in our disposable picnic wine glasses. However, I only drink red wine and the more delicate flavor of a white might be affected.

I really don't know but they are standard whisky glasses for different whisky's. I did a google on them as whisky glasses and came up with a number of retail outlets where explanations of what the glasses accomplish beside holding whiskey. The glasses work much better than the stones did.

Any wine that comes in and bottle works equally well - provided your guests find the taste to their liking. PLEASE NOTE: This product is not a ''game'' in the sense that there are winners or losers. The sole purpose is to let guests taste several different wines and to give them the ''tools'' to understand the different flavors and charicteristics of particular wines. We found that blends work just as well as single grape varietals in this regard. You may also want to taste less well known grapes from Chile, Argentina, Uraguay or South Africa. You and your guests may well find a great tasting wine at a bargain price in doing this. Wines become expensive when a great tasting wine becomes well known... wines that are not well known can taste just as good (or better) and are available for a fraction of the cost. In our area, we have a well-known winery that makes a great Cab-Merlot-Cab Franc blend that sells for about $60 per bottle. The winery that is adjacent to their property makes the same blend and sells it at Trader Joes for $8.99 a bottle. And, in a blind test - I would challenge anyone to tell any difference between the two!

No. They are plastic/paper like and fit over the wine glass/or any glass. If you put a tea candle in the glass - looks pretty into the evening

Here is my logical answer, with this kind of glass, there will be some variations in my opinion. My glasses are close, but because of the pattern and style, I am okay with this. Hope this helps.

I don't know that answer to that one, maybe you could try the Libbey web site, but i love these glasses!! I have a friend that ordered them and loves them too.

I found it didn't make a difference in flavor when compared to an undecanted glass from the same bottle. I also found that it gave a strange odor to the wine. This is made of plastic, not glass, so maybe that's why. I also noticed that the one featured here for red wine is a mini size in the picture, not the full sized one with the stand.

Not much difference at all. It would take a far more serious wine connoisseur than myself to tell. Both smooth out the roughness of a freshly opened bottle and provide instant smoothness to a variety of red wines.
