There’s something about cozying up with a glass of your fave wine that just hits different, right??? Especially when the weather cools down and the days get shorter as much as we love our pumpkin spice lattes, they’re no match to a good glass of wine.
It’s the perfect way to relax and unwind. Buuuut, there’s a catch. It’s not just about if you’re choosing to fill up your glass with cabernet Sauvignon or pinot noir, it’s about the glass itself! Trust us, drinking wine from the RIGHT glass can take your experience from plain to posh. (Don’t believe us? It’s science! Here’s more on how different wine glasses impact flavor.)
Whether you’re a casual sipper or a wine connoisseur, there’s a carefully curated, American-made wine glass for each and every wine drinker out there. That’s why we’re thrilled to share with you our list of wine glasses that are exclusively made right here in the USA. It’s time to sip in style, babe.

Libbey: Signature Stratford All Purpose Wine Glass
With these artfully curved bowls, you’ll feel lavish and luxurious drinking out of these babies. This glass features flavor-enhancing tapered rims with a wide bowl that helps with an effortless swing. It takes a larger bowl to a whole new level.
We particularly love the wider bowl because it improves aeration, aroma, and enhances the flavor. Not to mention, it uses a seamless pulled stem and flat foot for both aesthetics and durability. We’re obsessed.
Libbey: Signature Greenwich Stemless Wine Glasses
For the girls who like the aesthetics of stemless glasses, we’ve got you covered. Aesthetically, the modern design makes them unique and eye-catching. While keeping style and functionality in mind, these universal wine glasses use an angular bowl to bring the aroma and the flavor.
In a practical sense, Libbey uses thinner walls with a laser-cut rim for an even, beadless, and chip-resistant edge. This isn’t like your grandma’s fine China these glasses are durable!

North Drinkware: The Willamette Valley Wine Glass
This is a glass that focuses more on style and aesthetics than anything, but when you buy a wine glass from the wine country, you gotta represent.

This lead-free glass is made by hand, so you have to treat it with a liiiitle bit more care. Avoid things like extreme temp changes, cleaners that contain citrus, and maybe even a dishwasher if you wanna be safe! These babies are beautiful but delicate.
Simon Pearce: Vintner Bordeaux
Alright girls, it’s time to step up the game when we wanna enjoy our full-bodied red wines. We’re reaallyy doing our cabernet Sauvignon a disservice when we drink it out of anything other than this bordeaux glass.
The broad bowl and abundant swirl space totally enhance the way these red wines taste. And to keep the appeal going, the stemmed glasses create a thinner and more lightweight bowl, perfect for an easy-grip and an easy-swirl.
The glassblowing process produces a super high-quality glass you aren’t gonna find in factory-made glasses, especially ones made outside of the USA.
Simon Pearce: Vintner White Wine
If you’re not a red wine type of girl and you’re allll about those full-bodied white wines, we have a glass for you to enjoy your Sauvignon Blanc in as well!
Because smaller bowls are best for white wines to preserve those flavors and aromas, Simon Pearce refined and elevated those glassblowing skills to create a thinner almost weightless bowl. Perfect for you white-wine lovers!
Crate & Barrel: Stemless Wine Glasses
For our girls who aren’t too particular about getting the full-effect of wine tasting, and just want something simple, sleek, and sexy, these stemless wine glasses from Crate & Barrel get the job done.
You have the option to pick glasses suitable for red wine, glasses suitable for white wine, or glasses that act as an all-purpose choice. They provide that chic, handheld look, which is great for casual nights on the couch when you’re binge-watching Grey’s Anatomy (us too, don’t worry).
It’s the perfect middle option when you want an American-made glass that’s both stylish and functional!
Glassybaby: Happy Hour Drinker
This is another option if you’re more about style and design, and less about how the glass will affect the wine. (We’re here for all types of wine lovers, the casual fan and the connoisseur!) We couldn’t resist raving about these hand-blown drinking glasses.
This glass is like artwork for your drink. With its small stature and wide design, you get a glass that’s suitable for sipping while on date nights at home, movie nights with the girls, or casual and relaxing dinner parties.

Blenko Glass Co: Double Ring Glass
Another universal wine glass, this versatile option is suitable in terms of aesthetic and functionality.

William Yeoward Crystal: Olympia Red Wine Glass
This glass was created for those who really appreciate how the right glass can impact how much you enjoy your glass of wine. And, if you’re a red wine fanatic, this one’s for you.
This handmade crystal red wine glass holds up to 20 ounces and is best kept out of the dishwasher to preserve its quality. The designer of the glass wanted to maintain traditional, American-made craftsmanship, while also giving a nod to modernized design.
We loooveee a good quality, sustainably made glass and we know you baddies do, too.
Nine Line: Classic American Made .308 Caliber Wine Glass
Okay, we had to include this glass, because it’s HELLA unique. If you’ve read through previous posts, you know we’ve featured Nine Line plentyyy of times. But, what you probably didn’t know is that they also make a one-of-a-kind wine glass!
Each glass is hand blown in the USA, which means it skips out on all the lead, chemicals, and harsh toxins that tend to be in other glasses. This stemless wine glass holds 14 fluid ounces, has a laser etched logo design, and, wait for it…
Uses a real, lead-free .308 bullet in the side. Hellooooo, how cool is that?!?
How To Choose The Right Wine Glass
Match the glass shape to the wine type for superior taste.
Different types of wine glasses exist for a reason! The same goes for the different wine glass shapes, it allll matters when you’re serious about getting the best flavor.
A wider bowl with a larger surface area is ideal for reds to really enhance aeration, whereas a narrower bowl helps with concentration for different types of white wines.
Opt for a thinner, high-quality glass for a better experience.
The thinner the glass, the more likely you are to have a smoother, more enjoyable sipping experience. We also recommend sticking with crystal (or lead-free crystal) for lightweight but durable glasses which as you saw, these American-made glasses have covered.
Consider whether you want a stemmed or a stemless glass.
This tip really just comes down to preference. Do you enjoy that elegant feeling of holding your glass by the stem to swirl it around? Or do you prefer a glass that provides relaxed convenience instead?
You also have to consider if your wine is temperature sensitive, as a stemmed glass may be the better option in this case, so your hand doesn’t warm your drink up.
Decide whether or not you want hand-blown or machine-made.
While either option is suitable for your wine drinking experience, you have to weigh the pros and cons between each option! Hand-blown glasses will focus on unique craftsmanship and individuality, but tend to be more expensive because of that.
Machine-made glasses will be your more uniform options, but they’re also budget-friendly. You can’t go wrong with either choice, you just have to decide which one fits your style!
Which American-made wine glasses are you getting to restock your cabinet with?
Are you a red or wine type of girl??? You don’t have to answer that, because we provided options for both. 😉 Whether you like red, white, sparkling wines, or even want to feel chic and classy drinking your water out of something a little more luxurious, you can’t go wrong with any of these options.
Speaking of wine, if you need some wine tasting outfit inspo, we’ve got you covered. And if you’re still looking to restock and revamp other kitchen glassware or cups, you neeeed to see which coffee mugs made in the USA fit your aesthetic.
