LOL! I had no idea how much my wine glasses can hold - I just googled
and the first site I hit said that's the size of white wine glasses
these days. (I was trying to avoid the "but how big were those glasses?"
question). Anyway, just for the hell of it, I actually checked the
capacity of one of them - and yes, it can hold 240ml - if you fill it
right up to the brim. I only fill my glass up to about 2/3 - I do have
some manners, you know but it's too early in the morning here for me
to figure out exactly what 2/3 of 240ml is - so I'll take a guess -
about 170ml???

However, my white wine glasses are smaller than the ones I have seen in
some restaurants here - guess those must be the 360ml size that the site
I found was talking about.

Drostdy-Hof - it's local. We get a very nice selection of wines here in
SA, and they are very reasonably priced - even some of the "Chateau
el-Cheapo" ones are drinkable
