Wine goblets can be fun and sophisticated stemware to have around the house, especially if you are an avid wine drinker. But stemware, like the Waterford brand, can be too pricey for most people. There are several ways around these high prices though. Department stores such as Macy's sells cheaper stemware including wine goblets as well as discounted brand name wine goblets. Bed Bath and Beyond also has affordable stemware. You shop online on websites such as Amazon and Enesco for affordable stemware as well.
Pewter wine goblets keep chilled wine cooled down as you drink. They also are sturdy, and more affordable than other precious metal goblets made from gold or silver.
Not all wineries sell wine goblets/glasses. You should check with the specific winery that you'll be visiting before you visit to verify that they do, in fact, sell goblets.
Drinking wine and water
Goblets make wine taste better because it impacts the temperature and taste of the wine. The wine's exposure to air is maximized. The aromas will need to breath and thus give the wine a great taste.
One can purchase silver wine goblets in many different places. Some places where one can buy them are eBay, Amazon, DoneDeal, IndiaMART and Overstock.
A variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks can be served in goblets. Some of these beverages are water, wine, cognac, and sherry. One piece of advice is to "think like a person in the Middle Ages" when deciding what to serve in goblets (usually wine or water).
I saw a set of 4 goblets go for $112.00 on eBay
When I bought my Valero goblets, wine, etc (56 pieces in all) I paid $25 for them, and was told they were "restaurant silver"...
One can purchase plastic wine goblets from online stores such as the website Amazon, Dollartree and the bidding website eBay. Alternatively you may purchase a them from a catalog store like Argos in the United Kingdom.
No. Wine glasses and goblets (liquid servers) have stems also.
I have a special preference for the glass goblets simply because they allow the wine to stay pure , and it also allows you to see the color of the wine you are drinking.
