Champagne, one of the most iconic wines, deserves a glass of matching style and sophistication. Sparkling wine glasses have a few different shapes, each specially designed for use on certain occasions. The type of glass will not only make your bubbly drink look fantastic, but Champagne will also taste different depending on what type of glass you drink it from.
Whether celebrating with others, pairing with a particular meal, or enjoying this frothy drink on its own, let’s compare these different Champagne glasses and how they can affect the taste of wine.

The iconic, slender, and tall flutes are the most popular choice. These flutes help keep the Champagne as bubbly as when you first open the bottle. That is because the narrow shape and small opening limit the ability for carbon dioxide in the sparkling wine to escape, thereby preserving the wine’s effervescence (bubbles).
Since the opening is very small in order to maintain the bubbles, you won’t be able to get as many aromatics, since they will also be trapped in the bowl of the glass. The flavors will be more dry and crisp, which might be your preference. Another advantage is that by holding the glass by its stem, you can keep the wine cold and refreshing for longer.
