Spiegelau or Sippy Cup?

So maybe the latter isn’t all that age appropriate, but I’ve always wondered if the wine glass I’m drinking out of matters. Luckily, it’s Wine Week over at the Kitchn, and that’s exactly what they’re decoding. Dana Velden considers the meaning of stemmed vs. stemless in her article, and arrives at an all too relatable observation:“When drinking from a proper wine glass I become, ever so slightly, a different person. Or at least different qualities are brought forth: more attention, more care, a touch of formality.”In response, wine-educator Mary Gorman-McAdams breaks things down a bit more scientifically, explaining the seven factors that affect how a wine glass does its job. (Spoiler: it’s much more complicated than simply holding the wine.) Stem length aside, I still say drink out of what makes you happy.
