Having quality wine glasses and taking care of them is tantamount to a chef and his knives!
-Glasses don’t have to be expensive! You can pick up a set at Tar-Zhay!
-Stemless look fun, but are not functional for tasting. Holding the bowl warms up the wine and can alter the aromas. They should be reserved for easy drinkers on warm summer days
-Hand washing (I know, I hate it too! My least favorite part of drinking wine) and hand polishing is preferred. Washing should (ideally….) be done with non perfumed dish soap and a gentle touch. Sponges can carry particles that will scratch the glass. Hand polish with a microfiber polishing cloth to prevent water marks!
