How to Choose the Right Wine Glass
If you plan on serving wine to wine snobs, you’d better ensure you’re using the right glass. Many people make the mistake of using one wine glass, no matter the variety of wine.
There’s a reason why champagne is served in a flute glass. The right glass enhances a wine drinker’s enjoyment of bouquet, texture, flavor, and finish, so make sure you’re using the appropriate glass.
- Champagne and sparkling wine is served in flute glasses so bubbles have space to rise
- Red wine is served on glasses which are more round and have a wider opening
- Wine glasses are “U” shaped with a more narrow opening
- Dessert wine should be served in glasses with shorter stems and bowls

Peak Wine Body Slams Study into Higher Tax on Cheap Wine
The study by Monash University which found that higher taxes on cheap alcohol could be successful in reducing problematic consumption, has been rejected by the wine industry’s peak body, the Winemakers Federation of Australia.
Researchers found that a ‘minimum unit price’ was a more effective tool in reducing consumption than taxing each standard drink, a finding that was rejected by the Winemakers Federation of Australia who said that this would cause problem drinkers to simply shift to other alcoholic beverages or illicit substances.
The group said cask wine, one of the lowest taxed alcoholic products, was more popular among the elderly on fixed incomes while full strength beer was the most abused category for young drinkers.

Canberra Doctor Calls For Alcohol Legislation Reform
A leading Canberra doctor has called for more to be done to enforce the city’s liquor laws, following the one punch assault on New Years Day.
Dr David Caldicott says that alcohol is contributing to the increasing problem of violence in Canberra.
According to the doctor, surveys conducted by the Australian College for Emergency Medicine regularly show that one third of all emergency room presentations around 2am are due to alcohol. And unfortunately in Canberra, this seems to be a common occurence.
The doctor says the violence is taking place at the same places, outside the same venues. Part of the reason is that alcohol frees people of their inhibitions, the doctor says.
Dr Caldicott called on the ACT government to “make meaningful reform to alcohol legislation”.
