The 24 Best Champagne Glasses Our Editors Love

Champagne (and its equally bubbly cousinsCrémant, Prosecco, Cava, sparkling rosé, and the always-underrated
“fancy” sparkling cider) has one job: make an ordinary moment feel like a tiny holiday. But the glass you pour it
into can change what you noticearomas, bubble life, even how the sip lands on your palate. Yes, a glass can be
that dramatic. No, it doesn’t require a cape.

Below, we rounded up 24 champagne glasses our editors genuinely lovespanning tulip styles for savoring,
classic flutes for party toasts, and glam coupes for cocktails and photo ops. We also included a few “cheat-code”
picks (like durable outdoor flutes and stemless options) because real life includes dishwashers, tiny apartment
cabinets, and at least one friend who talks with their hands.

Note: If you’re not of legal drinking age, these are also perfect for nonalcoholic sparkling wine, mocktails, and sparkling juicesstill festive, still fizzy, still clink-worthy.

Flute vs. Tulip vs. Coupe: A Quick, No-Snobbery Guide

• Tulip: The “best of both worlds.” A wider bowl lets aromas open up, while a narrower rim helps
  focus them (and keeps bubbles lively). Great for nicer bottles or when you actually want to taste what you paid for.
• Flute: Tall, narrow, iconic. Flutes show off the stream of bubbles and help keep carbonation
  perkyexcellent for toasts, big gatherings, and “I need 12 matching glasses by tonight” situations.
• Coupe: Wide, shallow, and unapologetically glamorous. Coupes look incredible and work beautifully
  for Champagne cocktails and desserts, but the fizz fades faster. Think: style-first, aroma-and-bubble-retention-second.
• Stemless: Stable, casual, easy to store. The tradeoff: your hand warms the drink faster. Great for
  low-key celebrations and outdoor entertaining.

How We Picked These Glasses

We synthesized expert-backed guidance from U.S. food and home publications and retailer-tested roundups, then narrowed
our list using the stuff that matters in real kitchens: comfort in hand, rim thinness (the “sip feel”), balance and stability,
durability, dishwasher friendliness, and how well each shape suits different sparkling stylesfrom quick toasts to slow sipping.

Shopping Tips: Choose the Right Set for How You Actually Entertain

• Hosting big? Start with flutes. They’re classic, stack well in photos, and keep bubbles lively for casual pours.
• Love tasting notes? Add at least two tulip glasses. They’re the best “upgrade” without needing a whole new collection.
• Make cocktails? Keep 4–6 coupes. They’re multipurpose for martinis, sours, Champagne cocktails, and desserts.
• Clumsy households (no shame): Consider durable crystal alternatives or outdoor-friendly flutes for patio season.

Serving & Care: Make Your Bubbles Taste Better (With Zero Extra Effort)

• Don’t overfill: Leave headspace so aromas can gather and the mousse can settle.
• Hold the stem: It keeps the drink colder longer and avoids fingerprints on the bowl.
• Wash gently: If the glass is delicate, hand-wash. If it’s dishwasher-safe, still avoid overcrowdingclinking is great at parties, not in the rack.
• Choose shape by moment: Tulip for savoring, flute for toasts, coupe for cocktails and style.

Editor Experiences: The Real-Life Champagne Glass Test ( of Truth)

Our editors have learned one universal law of sparkling beverages: the glass you grab will shape the entire mood.
The first time we poured a genuinely good Champagne into a tulip-style glass, the reaction was immediate and slightly dramatic
“Wait, it smells like pastry,” followed by a pause that can only be described as respectful silence.
In a narrow flute, bubbles looked gorgeous (and lively), but the aroma stayed shy. In a tulip, the scent finally showed up to the party.
That’s when “glassware” stopped feeling like a fussy detail and started feeling like the easiest upgrade you can make.

Another lesson: the best glass is the one you’ll actually use. We love luxury crystal, but we also love not crying over a broken stem.
For big gatheringsNew Year’s, weddings, graduation parties, the annual “we swore we’d keep it small” holiday dinnerdurable flutes
become the MVP. They’re easy to pass around, easy to store, and they make every toast feel official. There’s also a social benefit:
flutes are basically conversation starters. People instinctively clink them. (Yes, even when you politely ask them not to.)

Coupes, meanwhile, are the wildcard. Do they keep bubbles the longest? No. Do they make everyone feel like they’re in a vintage movie montage?
Absolutely. Editors who love cocktails reach for coupes constantly: French 75s, Champagne cocktails with a sugar cube, even espresso martinis
when the theme is “glam.” We’ve also served desserts in themberries and whipped cream, mini parfaits, sorbet floatsbecause a coupe says,
“This was planned,” even when it was actually improvised five minutes ago.

We’ve also become deeply pro-stemless for certain scenarios: rooftop hangs, backyard birthdays, park picnics, and any event where a stray elbow
might take out a long-stem flute. Stemless options feel stable and relaxed, and they’re far less stressful when you’re balancing a plate in one hand.
The tradeoffwarming the drink fasterturns out to be a non-issue if you’re pouring smaller servings and refilling more often (which,
conveniently, feels festive). For nonalcoholic sparkling cider or sparkling juice at family events, stemless glasses are especially great:
durable, approachable, and still “special.”

The final takeaway from years of clinks, spills, and “where are the extra flutes?” moments: build a small, flexible collection instead of chasing
the perfect single glass. Keep a set of dependable flutes for crowds, two to four tulip glasses for the bottles you want to appreciate, and a few
coupes for cocktails and fun. With that mix, you’ll be ready for everything from a quick celebratory toast to a slow, savoring sipand you won’t
have to reorganize your entire cabinet to do it.

Conclusion

The “best” Champagne glass isn’t one-size-fits-allit’s the one that matches how you celebrate. If you want maximum aroma and flavor, reach for a
tulip (or a sparkling-friendly wine glass). If you’re hosting a crowd, flutes keep things classic and bubbly. And if you want cocktails or pure
old-school glamour, coupes deliver. Choose a few great options, treat them kindly, and let the bubbles do the rest.
