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.
