If an intelligent person does not see the difference between a glass and a wine glass, he will not see the difference between an intelligent person and a monkey».

Let's not make such mistakes and find out together with Fama-unique presents what the difference between a glass and a wine glass is.

It is worth starting with the fact that the birthplace of the wine glass was the French town of the same name (Fougeres).

Glasses as a gift

The word «glass» originated in Latin and took a significant place in many European dictionaries. The French interpretation sounds like «can» or "bottle", in Spanish the word was interpreted as "wine jug", in Italian - mug and even "bed pot". German turned out to be roughly accurate with the translation "pokal", which means "cup".

It is easier and more correct to consider the difference between a glass and a wine glass based on the drinks for which they are used. It is worth starting with the most popular drink - wine.

It is no secret that the highlight of wine is its aroma; the barrel-shaped shape of the glass allows you to regulate the area of ​​contact of air with wine. For red wines, a narrowed neck of the glass is used, which allows you to collect the aroma of the drink together.
White wines are lighter. The aroma should be less intense, so there is no narrowing of the neck - the glass has even walls.

Fougeres are used to serve sparkling wines, mineral waters and juices.
The open shape of the glass allows the drink to come into contact with air.
Fougeres are the best and only ally for serving sparkling wines!
