The stem on a wine glass has a purpose besides looking fancy. A wine drinker is meant to hold the glass by the stem so the temperature in their hand doesn't affect the flavor profile in the wine. All wines have an ideal serving temperature also. It depends on the specific wine, but in general, reds are slightly below room temperature and whites are slightly above fridge temperature.
Thanks I'll use this for when I next have soup
May I offer you a bowl of sauvignon blanc to go with your glass of soup?
I'd take some toilet wine
Very well, your toilet wine will be served to you together with the bath tub lasagna
Yeah, I'd like to order a paint can of toilet wine too, please.
Nah we use soup glasses in this crack home
That's a complicated way to say "cool" and "cooler."
red wine glasses also usually have a flatter bottom so that you can heat it up if needed by holding it on your palm with the stem going under
I just put the wine box on top of the dish washer
