A tip: if you can, wash your beautiful
wine glasses by hand. I know, the
dishwasher is a great invention for easing housework. But since the
tablets normally contain both soap and rinse aid, it's not a good idea. Yes, because the rinse aid leaves a waxy film that, while giving your glasses greater shine, prevents
bubbles from forming in a
sparkling wine.
Washing wine glasses by hand: motivations
It may sound strange, but the bubbles in a glass, whether it's a flute or a tulip, always start from solutions that are continuously present within the
wine, determined by small fragments that settle at the bottom of the glass. They are the starters for the bubbles. If they are absent due to a film of rinse aid, sometimes a
sparkling wine may taste
still or flat because it doesn't produce bubbles.
