Red Wine Glasses at Glassware UK
Red wine needs room to breathe, which is why a good red wine glass has a wide bowl and a generous capacity. Our range covers large-bowled Burgundy and Bordeaux-style glasses from Stölzle Lausitz, Krosno, Vidivi and Luigi Bormioli, alongside everyday red wine glasses for the dinner table.
Most glasses are available singly or in sets of 6, with options from around 220ml up to 840ml. Pair them with our white wine glasses, a wine decanter, or browse the full wine glasses range.
How to choose red wine glasses
Look for a wide bowl with plenty of room above the wine. Bigger, rounder bowls of 500ml to 840ml suit bold reds such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Shiraz, while slightly smaller Burgundy-style bowls flatter lighter reds such as Pinot Noir. Fill a red wine glass only about a third full so there is room to swirl.

Frequently asked questions
What size should a red wine glass be?
Most red wine glasses hold between 450ml and 650ml, although you'd usually pour only 125ml to 175ml. The extra space lets the wine breathe and the aromas build up in the bowl.
What is the difference between red and white wine glasses?
Red wine glasses have a larger, wider bowl to let the wine breathe, while white wine glasses are narrower to keep the wine cool and concentrate fresher aromas. See our white wine glasses for comparison.
Are red wine glasses dishwasher safe?
Many of our red wine glasses are dishwasher safe, and the care details are listed on each product page. For crystal, cut, gold-rimmed or decorated pieces we recommend hand washing in warm, soapy water.
Can red wine glasses be personalised?
Many of our red wine glasses can be personalised with engraving – look for the personalisation option on the product page. Personalised orders are usually turned around in 1–4 working days depending on the option you choose, and same-day turnaround is available.
