Stemmed glassware is a pretty obvious choice for wine consumption. It's fancy and elegant, but it can be a pain in the you-know-what to store on a shelf and isn't necessarily needed for a casual cup of grape on a weeknight. (Honestly, I'll take wine in any glass after 5 p.m.). Stems are used for temperature regulation and aerating wine by directing the aromas to your nose, but if you're not too worried about accentuating the taste of your wine or raising its temperature (or wooing guests), a stemless glass is a superb alternative.

Stemless glassware is simply more practical, and therefore, better than any stemmed glass to exist. There, I said it. Its versatility is a huge win, too, as it's not reserved solely for wine, but any drink you consume — like sangria or even iced coffee. It's ultimately the more laid-back, trendy-sweats version of the stemmed wine glass, and I'm totally on board. If you agree, we've curated a list of unique stemless glasses that are great for yourself or the next party you host. Shop them ahead.
