The size of the bowl is meant to accommodate the aromas of red wines that tend to be slightly more delicate. Because of the shape of the bowl and rim, you’ll first taste the wine on the tip of your tongue, then it’ll travel throughout your mouth. By tasting wine on the tip of your tongue, you are able to fully experience both the taste and smell of even the subtlest of wines. That way, you don’t miss any of the specific nuances. The length of the stems on burgundy glasses can vary slightly, with a shorter stem reducing the risk of it toppling over.
