When I was a kid I was really astonished by the all those different types of glassware my parents use to keep
In the cupboard there were mugs, water glasses, wine glasses, shots glasses, glasses for whiskey and spirits, champagne glasses and many more I cannot even remember. My reaction to that unfortunate event was always the same: had to take my ball, run as quickly as I could, find a safe place to hide it and then run back in the kitchen pretending I knew nothing about the whole incident.I can still hear my parents’ footsteps approaching fast as if the whole thing had happened for the first time and they did not know what they were going to come across once entering the kitchen.The punishment was pretty much the same each time, which meant that I would have to forget about my ball for several weeks until their anger was going to evaporate I guess.My reaction to their punishment was always the same as I couldn’t quite understand the severity of my “crime” as I could see that there were still plenty of other types of glasses in the cupboard.It wasn’t until I started drinking too that I realised the need of possessing all those different types of glassware as the right one was making the whole drinking experience more enjoyable.

You have the real wine snobs who know exactly what they want to drink and won’t settle for anything less. It doesn’t seem to bother them how expensive the bottle is, even if it costs over a hundred pounds. Read the rest of this entry »

Wine is sold in every country on the planet, and is a multi-million dollar industry. The sheer popularity of wine and its standard distribution in bottles led to a whole range of cork removing products to be invented.

The Californian wine makers E&J Gallo think they have spotted a gap in the market and have made a wine range aimed at men. Wine has always had more of an association with the female client but Gallo think that with strong branding they can cut a niche. The launch of the new range comes after news that they will be cutting back on their volumes of wine production in 2010 by taking part in less discount offers by retailers.

The type of glass you use to drink wine can make a real difference; large wine glasses can really make a cheap bottle of wine taste like an expensive bottle. It is important to make sure the glass is right before you try and anything else and this is the most important element.
