3.Champagne glass

Just as its name implies, it used for champagne or sparkling wine, sometimes for cocktails. The commonly capacity is around 4OZ. It can be divided into 3 types.

1)Saucer: Because of the wide mouth of the cup, the bubbles dissipates quickly and the temperature of the wine is prone to increase. This old elegant champagne glass is not popular anymore.

2)Flute: It is named because of its slender body.

3)Tulip: Tulip shape

The color of the champagne and the bubble can be seen which is the visual enjoyment. The CO2 can not go out quickly because of the small mouth of the cup. So the Flute and Tulip are commonly used in banquet and pub.

The red wine glass is suitable for all kinds of red wine with the capacity of 10-12oz, it has the shape of the ball, Burgundy, Bordeaux and so on. Generally, the red wine glass is a little bit bigger than a white wine glass. When the wine is in the 1/2 of the cup, it is the widest of the cup, which is good for the wine to contact the air.

8.White Wine Glass

The white wine glass should be refrigerated before drinking, so its body with 8-10oz is slimmer than the red wine glass to keep the temperature of the wine.
