Discover wine and champagne glasses for every occasion
Whether it’s a full-bodied red wine in the evening, a crisp white wine with a meal or a sparkling wine for a toast: with the right wine and sparkling wine glasses , every drink really comes into its own. In our category, you’ll find a carefully curated selection of glasses for red wine, white wine, sparkling wine and champagne. At Möbel Ehrmann, we make sure you find glasses that are not only beautiful but also functionally well-designed, to suit your home and your occasions.
Wine and champagne glasses as a harmonious set for your table
A carefully coordinated range of wine and champagne glasses brings a sense of calm and elegance to the table. If you regularly entertain guests, a well-thought-out set is often a good choice, as red wine, white wine and champagne glasses then complement one another harmoniously. The individual glass shapes are deliberately different, as each type of wine develops its aroma best in a specially designed bowl. This ensures your table looks visually harmonious, without you having to compromise on the right shape for each drink.
Our range includes both compact basic sets and more extensive collections. For everyday use, a modest number is often sufficient, whilst for larger gatherings, a slightly more generous selection is recommended. Please feel free to seek advice from our team when putting together your set, so that you can find the one that’s right for you.
An overview of wine glasses for red and white wine
Wine glasses are among the most versatile drinking glasses in the home, and the differences between the various shapes are greater than they might seem at first glance. Generally speaking, glasses for red wine and white wine can be distinguished by the size of the bowl, the rim and the length of the stem. These features influence how the aromas develop and how the wine reaches the palate.
Red wine glasses with a generous bowl
Red wine glasses usually have a bulbous, wide bowl. This shape gives the wine space to come into contact with oxygen, allowing full-bodied aromas to develop more fully. A larger glass is ideal for full-bodied red wines, whilst lighter varieties also come into their own in slightly smaller glasses. The wide rim also guides the wine to the palate in such a way that the fruity and spicy notes are perceived harmoniously.
White wine glasses in a slimmer design
White wine glasses are usually slimmer and slightly smaller than their red wine counterparts. The reason lies in the temperature: white wine is drunk chilled, and a smaller bowl helps to retain the chill for longer. The narrower opening concentrates the delicate, fresh aromas and directs them specifically towards the nose. Anyone who enjoys both red and white wine should ideally opt for both glass shapes to do justice to each wine.
Sparkling wine glasses and champagne glasses for festive occasions
When toasting with sparkling wine or champagne, the shape of the glass plays a special role, as it influences how long the bubbles last. Classic flute-shaped sparkling wine glasses are slender and tall. This slender shape ensures that the fine bubbles rise slowly and evenly, prolonging the sparkling experience. Such champagne glasses are a lovely choice for festive occasions and for that special treat.
As well as the classic flute, there are also wider bowl shapes that allow the aroma more space to develop. Which style appeals to you depends on your personal taste and the occasion. Simple champagne glasses may suffice for everyday use, whilst more elegant designs are often preferred for special celebrations. In our range, you’ll find glasses for every one of these occasions.
Crystal glass and material quality in wine glasses
The quality of a wine glass is evident not only in its shape, but also in its material. High-quality crystal glasses are characterised by exceptional clarity and a delicate lustre that shows off wine and sparkling wine to their best advantage. Crystal glass can also often be produced with thinner walls than standard soda-lime glass, which makes for a pleasant drinking experience. At the same time, modern crystal glass remains remarkably sturdy and suitable for everyday use.
If you’re looking for elegant wine glasses, you’ll find styles in this category that combine design and durability. Many high-quality glasses are now dishwasher-safe, so you can enjoy them without the hassle of washing them by hand. Whether you prefer particularly thin glasses for a refined experience or more robust options for everyday use depends entirely on your personal preferences.
Caring for and storing your glassware
To ensure you can enjoy your glasses for many years to come, there are a few points to bear in mind when caring for them. Fine crystal glasses should be cleaned with care and, where possible, stored upright and dry to prevent breakage and limescale marks. For dishwasher-safe models, we recommend using a gentle cycle at a low temperature. This will ensure they retain their clarity and shine for many years to come.
Modern and unusual wine glasses as a design feature
Glasses have long since become more than mere everyday objects; they are increasingly seen as a design element on the table. Modern wine glasses with clean lines, angular accents or a ribbed surface add subtle highlights without appearing obtrusive. Anyone looking for distinctive wine glasses will find shapes that blend harmoniously into a contemporary interior design scheme. Bulbous bowls with an expressive silhouette are also very popular.
Unique and design-led glassware also makes a lovely gift for many occasions. Whether as a housewarming present, a birthday gift or a small token of appreciation: a set of beautiful wine glasses is always well received. In our category, you’ll find both simple and unusual designs to suit a variety of interior styles. To complement these, it’s worth taking a look at our other home accessories and lounge furniture to create a harmonious overall look.
Choose wine and champagne glasses to suit your home
Choosing the right glasses is closely linked to the rest of your interior design style. A modern dining room often suits simple, clean lines, whilst a classically furnished room tends to harmonise better with traditional goblets featuring subtle decoration. When making your selection, do also bear in mind your existing crockery and table decorations to ensure a harmonious overall look. As a family-run business with many years’ experience in the interior design sector, we’d be delighted to help you find the right combination.
If you’re redesigning your home, particularly your dining and living areas, you’ll find far more than just glassware with us. From upholstered furniture and dining rooms to bespoke kitchens, we’ll guide you every step of the way with personalised advice.

Frequently asked questions about wine and champagne glasses
Which wine glasses are suitable for red wine and white wine?
For red wine, glasses with a generous, bulbous bowl are ideal, as this allows the wine to come into good contact with oxygen and develop its aromas. White wine glasses are usually slimmer and slightly smaller to preserve the cool temperature and delicate aromas. Anyone who enjoys both types of wine would be well advised to have the appropriate glass shapes for each.
Why are champagne glasses so slender and tall?
The slender, fluted shape of classic champagne glasses ensures that the fine bubbles rise slowly and evenly. This preserves the effervescence for longer and prolongs the sparkling drinking experience. Wider bowl shapes, on the other hand, give the aroma more space to develop, which is why the choice also depends on personal taste.
Are crystal glasses suitable for everyday use?
Modern crystal glass combines an elegant appearance with remarkable durability and is often suitable for everyday use. Many designs are also dishwasher-safe, although a gentle cycle at a low temperature is recommended. This means that these elegant glasses are ideal for everyday use.
