Wine Glasses, Decanters etc

I once purchased really big Bordeaux style glasses made from hard plastic (Perspex?). They're ideal for the picnic scenario. Unrbreakable but still a great shape. Obviously not nice and thin like Zaltos but a million times better than plastic disposable ones.

Yep that’s what I am after I think - I’ve found some acrylic tulips on AliExpress and my Chinese girls are now on the hunt for them on Taobao (Chinese equiv of eBay but a gazillion times bigger) - I’ll post back when they arrive

Stop crying and buy more Vegemite glasses!

I was hoping to avoid glass if possible - I guess would have been sensible to include that huh?

The ones I posted are plastic

Shocked that some have sunken so low! Just buy a few cases of Zalto and put the losses down to good friends!

And, if you must stoop, there are semi-unbreakable glasses.

Pool party?

Pool party?

Ah yes possibly maybe - of course there might be a multitude of reasons why anybody would seek out any particular product but as per AFF norm …………..

Suffice to say a commercial opportunity has presented itself

Phew! That sounds better.
The fear was that you were intending to sully Champagne with plastic.

A few decent BFS on official Riedel. Picked up some hand made sommelier grand cru riesling glasses for $80 down from $180. Was eyeing of some performance Riesling but these worked out cheaper.

RIEDEL Sommeliers Riesling Grand Cru/Zinfandel

The Riesling Grand Cru glass is perfect for balancing the high acidity and residual sugar of fruit-forward white wines. This shape is the most versatile white wine glass in the RIEDEL range. It helps to balance the fresh characters and high mineral components, emphasising the wonderful fruit...

Good spot, I think the M series decanters are cheaper than I've seen before by around an additional 25%. I quite like the look of them, so grabbed a couple - Ayam is on sale too for what looks like a good price.

Good upgrade to our Harris Farm milk jugs and chunky Plumms.

I picked up a twin pack of these for $147 from Peters of Kensington a couple of weeks ago. They were also on sale direct from Riedel. They're slightly taller than the Sommeliers and lighter/thinner. Here's the height compared to a standard Bordeaux bottle.

Somebody asked me the other day how I get my decanter so clean. This is what I use, sometimes leaving to soak for 48 hours.

How long do you leave the dentures in?

I also have a set of cleaning balls, my second set.
The first went down the drain as I forgot to put the sink plug in
