The importance of wine glasses for enhancing the meal experience from the perspective of craft, deisgn and science

• The Five Aspect Meal Model (FAMM) is a valuable tool for exploring the entirety of the meal. Factors within the model are interdependent, and each relates to different forms of knowledge such as science, practical production, aesthetics and ethics. The present paper explored the role of consciously designed artefacts in the dining room, especially wine glasses, and their importance for the meal experience from the perspective of sommelier craft, art and science. Knowledge and awareness of utensils are of importance during the process of preparing, planning and serving a meal. A glass is, in effect, an instrument for communicating wine to the human senses. Therefore, the design is an important part of the meal experience, and its effect in enhancing the meal can be evaluated using FAMM principles. By working consciously with design, greater guest satisfaction can be achieved and the meal experience can be enhanced.
