Default Talking about wine glasses....


.....which we weren't but I hope we will.
In a previous life I remember watching a TV program that featured
wines on one episode. It was a fascinating program at the time. Lots of
stuff about one wine or another, what goes with what, etc. The gal that made
the most points with me said something like, "Forget about reds with red
meat and whites with white meat. If you like a wine, drink it with whatever
you want."
But about the glasses.... During the show a fair size segment was
devoted to styles of glasses including the shape, size, and very
interestingly the rims. As best I can recall, the rims play a large part in
how a wine tastes, according to those pundits. It has something to do with
where the wine is first distributed in the mouth.
What's your take on wine glasses in general, rims and all? Can anybody
point at a reference to read on the subject?
