The Official Wine Thread

[Omega Male]

As always, I'm all about the Schott Zwiesel Triton. I like the Forte collection and the Claret/Cabernet glass is my universal. Maybe I should say, "The One Glass."

$10 a stem is nice. I feel like our Riedel are more than that but we do use those stemless Riedel as water glasses in our house

Could drink this every day. Sometimes I do.

This is a great Rioja. If this is the glass referred to @Beckwith its from swedish Orrefors and their Metropol series

This went with tonight's steak something awesome. Smooth but powerful. Full of mocha, chocolate, dark berries and some eucalyptus.

Home solo tonight. Took this from my wife’s wine I am instructed not to touch and drank it with back to back plates of gricia and carbonara. (Eaten out of the skillet)

Pretty great. We seem to have a case of it so that works out well.

And I thought I was whipped!

ln the past i may or may not have allegedly drunk too much and decided to cap off the night with some bottles of wine that were not easily (or inexpensively) replaceable. We agreed I either learn about what I am drinking or refrain from a certain area of wine storage. I chose the latter.

Basically why I don’t keep any expensive or rare bottles at home.

Gotta protect yourself from yourself! I'm not great at that.

This is why wine is for dinner, spirits for the evening drinks.

the alleged incident and/or incidents transpired well after many evening drinks had been imbibed. For me that is almost always bourbon or rye.

I know it has been discussed here before, but my forum search skills are rather abysmal, what are some of the glasses mentioned here that weren't Riedel? @NJE66 has one in particular that is wider at the bottom.

Upscale - Zalto Universal
Mid - Gabriel Glas StandArt
Durable/Everyday - Schott Zweisel Tritan 'Pure'
