“Wine Makes Every Meal An Occasion, Every Table More Elegant and Every Day More Civilized.” —Andre Simon

But it’s not ALL about looks ;)

Wine and wine glasses have a legendary history. Your brand captures a piece of that magic when you imprint your logo on them.

A Quick History of Wine Glasses

They first appeared in Egypt around 1500 BC. From honoring deities to drinking wine for pleasure, they were a big part of Egyptian culture.

But the Romans were the ones who went buck wild and invented glass-blowing. They took wine glass-making to the next level!

Shortly after Rome evolved the game, Venice Italy became the center of European glassware…

From there, drinking wine from wine glasses spread across the globe. It became synonymous with good vibes, classiness and even spiritual enlightenment.

Today, wine glasses are prettier and more evolved than ever. They’re crafted with beautiful curves and are shaped to deliver full aroma and taste.

Wine glasses are the ultimate way to advertise your logo. But only if you choose the best custom glasses for imprint!

Coupe Glasses For Wine

A Classy Throwback

These wide-rimmed glasses were popular in the roaring 1920’s! They were used to serve bubbly dessert champagne, which was loaded with syrup.

Today it’s used for wine drinks like —

  • Prosecco

Their shallow bowl and wide body aren’t quite as ideal for maintaining flavor and carbonation. That’s why they’re a popular choice for cocktail parties and events where mixed drinks are served, rather than pure wine.

Stemless Wine Glasses

Okay, when it comes to this category, there’s just one type of stemless glass I’ll talk about.

Yep, it’s the coolest and most loved of all.

That’s right —the glass wine tumbler.

These glasses have no stem or base, so they’re a little more casual.

How did stemless wine glasses come about?

Well, In 1745 Britain enforced a tax on glass weight that resulted in glasses with long, hollowed-out stems or no stems at all. So there you go, it was a workaround to save a few bucks ;)

They’re the ultimate multipurpose wine glass, and are ideal for chilled red wine.

They can be used for wine, cocktails and liquor drinks alike. So don’t be afraid to unleash them at trade shows and giveaways.
