Champagne coupe
The champagne coupe or champagne saucer is a shallow, broad-bowled, stemmed glass, commonly used at wedding receptions, often stacked in layers to build a champagne tower. Champagne is continuously poured into the top glass, trickling down to fill every glass below. The broad surface area allows champagne to lose its carbonation more quickly, making it less suitable for the current style of very dry champagnes: the coupe is now more commonly used for certain cocktails such as daiquiris.
