Wine Glass 🍷

An elegant wine glass rendered in simple lines, typically depicted with clear or slightly tinted glass, filled with red wine shown in deep burgundy or purple tones. The glass has a thin stem and a wide, rounded bowl—the classic silhouette of wine service. Some platform versions show a bit more detail or a slight highlight to suggest the liquid's transparency.

This emoji covers wine consumption and wine culture broadly—from casual evening glasses to fine dining, wine tastings, or romantic dinner settings. People use it when discussing wine preferences, suggesting a night in with wine, or celebrating with a drink. It's also used in discussions of sophistication, relaxation, or "adulting" moments. Wine pairing, wine bars, and wine-country travel conversations naturally include this emoji.

Beyond literal wine drinking, it carries associations with elegance, leisure, and perhaps a slightly more refined or grown-up vibe than beer or casual drinks. It appears in meme culture around "wine o'clock," self-care moments, or humorous takes on adult life. The emoji works equally well for serious wine discussion and casual joking about wine culture.

This is one of the original emoji, approved as part of Unicode Emoji 0.6 in 2010. Platform designs are fairly consistent—it's remained largely unchanged because the silhouette is so instantly iconic. It remains one of the most universally used alcohol-related emojis, second perhaps only to the beer mug in frequency.
