Ok – just an update on this… I've tried out the Vinum Extreme dessert glasses. I've no idea if this is viable scientifically, but they seem to enhance the fruit and acidity balance of the dessert wines I've tried so far in those glasses…

Hi Ted,

Interesting opposing viewpoint! I was really unhappy with the Overture I bought because they're smaller than I'd like a red wine glass to be. I find that I can't swirl without spilling and I find it hard to get my nose in the glass the way I'd like to.

The ribbed stems on the Wine series on the other hand don't bother me- the size of the bowl is just right on them and that's the more important thing for me.

Cheers!

I'd say that's a sign of wine geekdom. Don't worry – you're not going crazy, you're going sane in a crazy world!

What does it mean when you have 32 wine glasses of various shapes and sizes but only 12 water glasses?
Despite that, I want more. Your title lured me in like the stemware junkie that I am. I change the size and quality of the stemware I drink from constantly…depends on my mood and my food.

Honestly, my every day stemware is from Ikea because I have a habit of dropping the glasses either on our granite counters or on our tile floor…shattering them to smithereens. When I'm feeling a little less clumsy, I use Villeroy & Boch glasses that were given to me as a houswarming present when I moved into my first apartment by myself (many moons ago).

That said, I'm looking to update when my husband and I redo our kitchen this summer, so it's great to see what everyone else uses!
