You wouldn’t put snow tires on your car in the middle of summer, right? So why drink expensive wine out of generic stemware? We spend so much money on wine each year, but often overlook the vessel.
I was a skeptic on the importance of stemware shape until I attended a Riedel seminar several years ago that shocked my senses. Put a red Burgundy in the wrong glass, and you may be met with rough, overly aggressive mineral notes, while a Napa Cabernet is completely harmonious in the same glass!
