I will have you know that I am extremely picky about wine. There are only 2 kinds of wine that I will drink.

Yours or mine.

But, I prefer yours.

Not for real wine.

Let's not get too far above ourselves here. We're talking about the rotted juice of crushed fruit. ;-)

"Not for real wine."

I really don't like that fake wine anyway.

poly glasses are the way to go. looks classy and wont break at the hot tub or anywhere.
I would bet large sums that in taste test none of you snobs could taste difference between glass and poly. However if I had a 250k rig I may sing a different tune. 93 Lance TC and its worth less than the inverter, LCD tv, and solar system I installed on it.

We use stemless glassware. A little more stable and sturdy than stems.

We use these Tervis goblet tumblers at our lake house.

Plastic?? Lets refer to them as Acrylic.........
Now if you would like to talk about wine sometime............Maybe a fire?
Chrystal or China or Fine glass does not change the taste of the wine.......the only thing all 3 of them do for sure .........is break.

Jackie says ... don't wash em .... we've broken ours when cleaning them ...
She uses bottle dividers to secure them in the cabinet above the TV ...
But even that doesn't keep them in place during travel ... tho we've never had breakage ...
Always looking for better solutions ....

Our Magna came with a special cabinet with 6 wine and 6 hi ball glasses in it. Now it turns out that if the DW gets a liver transplant she can't drink ANY alcohol and I won't since she can't. The glasses are all glass and the cabinet has inserts milled in the acrylic to hold them in place. She's thinking about having the acrylic removed and new acrylic shelves made to hold a few of her Hummel collection. We've got over 150 of them so choosing which ones to keep will be hard!

1) We buy our wine glasses at Ikea

2) store bottles and glasses in tube socks

DW stores ours upside down on the shelf in the cupboard and just pushes them all together with a towel for travel. Never have broke one this way.

Drink enough wine--for a long enough time--and you will find a bottle in a plain brown paper bag is the way to go!!

I use a cardboard wine bottle box that I got for $0. I cut it down so you could remove the glasses without difficulty. I had some bubble wrap that stays in the slots so they do not move too much in transit.
