Wine Glasses

[mrdutton]

Sitting under my Christmas tree (and soon under someone elses) are some of those fine glasses from............

Germany.

Speigelau Echtkristal. Nice stuff. A while ago Bucko was talking about buying tasting glasses at about $5.00 a stem. The Speigelau Vino Grande Tasting Glass goes for just about that when you buy at least 12 at a time....... (How do I know....?? Guess what is under the tree!!)

I also got some of their 34 oz glasses for the really big reds, also for a fairly decent price.

Nice crystal. Snap it with your finger, it rings quite nicely. Rub it gently with a clean, damp finger and you can make music.

Shaped well, the bowls certainly do seem to contribute, as they establish a direct path from the contents to the nose, to the enjoyment of drinking wine.
