Why Wine Glasses Matter: Inside Glasvin with Founder David Kong
Tuesday, 13 January, 2026
Check out all the great events Laurie has on the calendar in 2026 on her website at TheWineCoach.com/events including a few spaces still left in her Tuscany tour this October!In this episode, David Kong shares how he went from finance to founding Glasvin, the wine glass brand redefining how wine should actually taste. We dig into why glass construction matters more than most people realize, how the right shape can elevate the entire tasting experience, and what separates a great wine glass from the ones quietly sabotaging your favorite bottle. David also talks about expanding the Glasvin lineup, proper care and maintenance (yes, your dishwasher has opinions), and why the brand has become a go-to in top restaurants. Along the way, he introduces Somm.ai, his data-driven platform helping wineries and restaurants sell smarter. The conversation wraps with a relaxed, wine-nerd-fueled chat about favorite bottles—because no good wine talk should end without one. Check out the Glasvin line of glasses at Glas.vin and if you use code SIPPING you'll receive a 10% discount off your purchase.Support the showFollow The Sipping Point on Apple Podcasts, iHeart Radio or wherever you get your podcasts so you don't miss an episode!Subscribe to our YouTube channel @thewinecoach to get video footage of the podcasts an more.Let's Stay Connected:Instagram @thewinecoachFacebook @winecoachTikTok @LaurieForster
