One can serve his beverages in champagne glasses, no matter it is champagne, or sparkling wine or any kind of a fruity beer, champagne glasses and an ice bucket along with ice tongs, bring a festive touch to almost all kinds of celebrations.

Let us talk about what a champagne glass should look like. There are four points to consider while doing that, and those are; rim, bowl, base and the material of the champagne glass. First of all; the rim of the glass should be broad enough or large enough for the person to be able to smell the aroma of the champagne. Secondly, the bowl should also be wide because the wider the bowl, the more aromas the glass would be able to collect for the drinker. Next we have to discuss the base of the bowl, which should be pointy so that a single line of fine bubbles can be formed. And most importantly, the material of the glass. A champagne glass should be made of crystal because it can be decorated and designed in a delicate manner because of all the lead present in the crystal as compared to a normal glass.

There are different types of wine glasses Australia, namely flute, tulip, wide tulip and coupe glass. Starting with flute, it is a stem glass with a tall conical shape or a long bowl to hold around 180 to 300ml of champagne. At first the flutes were just tall and conical, but with time, they were designed to be curved inward near the tip. Flutes were most commonly used for sparkling wines but were also widely used for containing beers, especially fruit beers. That is because the flute is styled in a way that it shows off the color of the beer and saves the aromas of them for the nose of the person drinking from it.

The tulip is a kind of champagne glass that is designed that has a much wider bowl and is ideal for collecting more aromas from different sparkling wines and champagnes. The mouth of a tulip glass is narrow so that the quick carbonation loss is minimized.

The wide tulip glass is a glass designed to collect the flavors of the aged biscuit present in sparkling wines like vintage champagne.

The coupe glass is a popular champagne glass that is shallow but has a broad bowl. It can contain around 120 to 240ml of champagne. It was specially styles for sparkling wines and champagne in 1663. In a coupe glass, the bubbles of the champagne disperse quickly and making the drink softer and fruitier in the result of this.
