What are wine glasses?

I emailed her back and tactfully (I hope) aid that what she wanted were cocktail goblets, not wine glasses. I maintained that all but possibly the tall flared ones were wine glasses. She replied that what I call wine glasses are cordials.

All I know is that I went to a lot of trouble for nothing packing and hauling stemware.

You are much more classier than I. :) Sorry you went to so much trouble for nothing, I hope she at least thanked you very kindly for your efforts.
 
Well, there are just too many cordial glasses in google images! I always thought of them as tiny. But then, there are the aperitif glasses which look just like the cordials. These looked interesting:

I drink everything; wine, gin, grapefruit juice, brandy, and Diet Coke out of the same, small, party favor brandy glass, so I'm out. Live simply, or die!
 
Considering how rare I have a drink, I don't care if it's poured into a solo plastic cup, I think that's the name of them, but, I was letting debodun know, she was perfectly correct in her assumption of bringing along those glasses to show that person if the person wasn't being specific and then having the audacity to tell her still yet, I WANTED WINE GLASSES, as if. LOL! Obviously that uppity floozy doesn't know a wine glass from her arse and could have been nicer about it. Well nicer than I tend to be in such matters, being the rude gutter mouth that I have come to be of late. :cheers1::smug1:

April, LOL, I tend to agree with you about the floozy not knowing a wineglass from a hole in the ground, kind of thing. Just how much does one person have to put up with, anyway, I ask you? :cheers:

I agree Annie and the upper left or top are sherry glasses in my family and according to some google searchesset-of-6-sherry-glasses-50-ml-139-p.jpg

These days I drink out of any glass I can find, but I don't like drinking beer out of the bottle, which seems to be the fashion here in all age groups, I always ask for a glass if buying bottled beer in a bar.
 
We have nicer beer glasses than wine. Hubby brews beer in the garage. My wine glasses are some cheap ones I bought in the supermarket. We have some pretty etched champagne glasses we got for a wedding gift but they live in the back of a top shelf.
 
Sherry = wine
Champagne = (sparkling,) wine,

The glasses holding them, bottom line are wine glasses. The biotch in me says google it. :tongue: Question asked what are wine glasses, they are all types of wine glasses, there are more than one type of wine seems most folks thing in terms of red and white or some such thing for a one glass.

If you google wine glasses, you will get a vast selection of glasses, if you google what you are drinking you will be told wine by just another name as well. :soap2::bashcomp::tapfoot::cry::hide:

Very true April, I guess the bottom line is they are all glasses, I often drink a good beer out of what you would call a large wine glass,

We are all fine wines here and I wear my glasses as well.

LOL! I keep it in my belly at all times, it's a special pouch that I access anytime of the hour I want. I'm going for a bordeaux followed by two jack and cokes about right now. I'll be under the sofa any minute, things are already getting a bit fuzzy and I forgot most of what I was going to type.
