(ChicagoTribune) - Stemware has significant effect on taste, aroma. A good host wouldn't be caught dead pouring red Bordeaux over ice cubes. But all too often, he thinks nothing of serving wine in inappropriate stemware. Big mistake. The correct glass will have an enormous effect on a wine's aroma and taste. Pour a beautiful pinot noir into a short, trumpet-flared, thick-rimmed glass and it's no longer pinot noir. It's just red wine.
