As a sensory scientist, I feel the need to say that Isaac is right, and that the idea of a 'Tongue Map' is complete and utter nonsense, however glass choice can still have an impact on your perception of the wine, so it's not a factor to be completely ignored.

Riedel does make very fine glassware, but in my mind, the minimal impact it has on the taste and aroma of the wine isn't worth the hefty price tag. Think about how much wine that much money could buy, and how much better it would taste than a glass.

And remember, the best wine tasters in the world all use $5.00 ISO Glassware.
