What does the Wine Glass emoji mean?
A glass of red wine, for drinks, dinner and unwinding.
Relaxed and adult. It signals the end of a working day more often than an occasion.

Evening plans, restaurant posts and end-of-week messages.
Food and drink emoji are most often literal, but they also signal plans, cravings, celebrations and shared routines. Context is especially important when a food has a slang meaning in a particular community.

The history of 🍷
- 2010
First defined as emoji
According to Unicode’s Emoji Versions data, Wine Glass was first defined as emoji in Emoji 0.6, dated 2010. That label is retrospective: Unicode applied it later to the early mobile core it inherited from the Japanese carriers.
- Before the keyboard
Its visual roots
A stemmed glass of red wine, from the carrier set. The red fill is what separates it from the martini and champagne glasses beside it.
- Today
How its use evolved
Evening plans, restaurant posts and end-of-week messages.
Dates follow Unicode’s official Emoji Versions chart. Versions before Emoji 1.0 are labelled retrospectively. See the history of emoji.

When to use it
Using 🍷 clearly
Evening plans, restaurant posts and end-of-week messages. It lands as wine emoji or 🍷 meaning when the rest of the message supports that reading, and it is the surrounding words that do the deciding — so in a sensitive, professional or cross-cultural conversation, say the thing outright as well.
Common questions
About the wine glass emoji
What does 🍷 mean in a text message?
A glass of red wine, for drinks, dinner and unwinding. Relaxed and adult. It signals the end of a working day more often than an occasion.

Not always. Its usual readings are wine emoji, 🍷 meaning, drink emoji, and irony or the relationship between the people can flip any of them.
Why does 🍷 look different on another device?
U+1F377 identifies the emoji; the picture is a font, drawn separately by Apple, Google, Microsoft and Samsung. Only the artwork changes, never the character.
How do I copy and paste the wine glass emoji?
Use the copy button at the top of this page. 🍷 is a character, not an image, so it pastes into messages, captions and filenames as ordinary text.
