Dana,

My preference is the right glass for the right wine made out of the right glass.  I may sound like a wine snob, well, I am!  The right glass for each wine enhances its flavor.  Yes, I used to think that this was clever marketing, until I want to a special tasting, where we experienced the difference.  I know you wanted a definite answer, and I gave you an encyclopedic one, but you asked!  LOL  Have a great weekend.  A

Dana -- actually I believe the glass makes a difference but not as much as the content.   I defer to my experts in this subject:   Endre Barath, Jr. Dick Greenberg, Ron and Alexandra Seigel.   

I agree with Endre but also for me, the thiness of the glass is most important.  I hate cheap glasses that make it seem like you're drinking from a coffee mug!  My crystal must be paper thin :)

Michael Jacobs  you know this question would bring me into the conversation...in my experience I find that  the shape  and size of the glass not just the amount wine  poured makes a difference. Red wine glass shapes enhance the experience of sniffing, swirling and sipping. The more complex the wine the more important it is to have the right amount and shape to enjoy the wine. If one over fills or uses smaller glasses for the appearance of being full miss out on the total experience:))Endre

Depends on how good the wine is, the purpose of the big glass is to get all the aromas etc of a really good wine. So I'd say expensive wine, big glass. Cheaper wine, small glass.

I like medium glasses.

I am pretty amazed at the great answers from others.  Typically the restaurants I go to serve wine in a cardboard carton!  

The larger glass may be more appropriate for red wines.

I will use any size glass if the wine is good.

As correctly stated by so many, it is the type of wine that dictates the glass in which it it served. For the rest of use, the choice is made at the market....box or bottle?

I prefer a fuller container simply because it is easier to consume AND I do not posses the palate to discern a properly aerated wine from "Two Buck Chuck."

I would think that most prefer smaller glasses as it give the illusion of more wine.  But, I would think wine buffs would prefer larger glass as it airs better and keeps aroma in for better experience.  I also associate the larger glasses w/ higher end dining.

Smaller glass when it looks more full!  Makes me feel better about the high price I am paying for that glass!

I prefer it to be in a huge glass filled nearly to the rim.  Just kidding.  I like the glass to suit the wine.

Not much on Wine but I do like a full glass.

It depends on the glass and at it's widest point is where I want it to reach for red. White wine can go higher but only slightly more. The serving should be about 5 ounces but that can vary depending where you are. Too full and a little spillage can ruin your outfit. Wine can be dangerous in more ways than one!

Endre nailed this one!

I prefer to buy the bottle...Better value and take home the extra.

HUGE but I always order a bottle of my choice and not just a glass.  Others will share or I will take it home.

I prefer when it is delivered by the bottle, full bottle.

I don't drink wine, but I always notice they hardly fill the glass.  If they give a large glas, they should fill it up, not just cover the bottom.  Are they fraid they are going to overfill or spill it?

I prefer the right glass for that wine. 

How bout out of the bottle wrapped in a brown bag? I don't drink so I am only guessing here.

I am fine as long as they use the right kind of glass for the right kind of wine.

Where's the bottle?
