I have a lot of wine glasses also. I love to get at various auctions, 2nd hand stores. SOme are a couple some just one.
I set a pretty table for 6 once with 6 different settings. Each one was gorgeous.. but difft silver, china, napkins & stemware. Had an off white lace table cloth & I really wish I had taken some pix of the table prior. I think there were some of the dinner party, but there were people blocking view of table & food on plates etc.
Had my first ice wine a few weeks ago. Really liked it.
As far as who owns wineries in California.. a pretty good sized one is owned by a former Hollywood magnate... anyone recall who?
here is a listing of California wineries

that would be Francis Ford Coppola....
I knew a psychologist couple who did the same. They teased it was a psychology experiment to see who chose which place setting and wine glasses.
It made a lovely eclectic table--and I do like eclectic.
Raymond Burr owned vineyards/winery for many years. I believe it is still in his name. I would imagine there are other Hollywood types with investments in the wine industry.
