Deadly Zins | Print |  E-mail
Written by Chris J. Magyar   
Thursday, 12 June 2008

I'm smitten with these wineglasses from Hamilton Design that represent each of the seven deadly sins. What would you drink from them? Here are my choices:

Wrath

Ah, the grapes of wrath. With that hard spear on its edge, the glass could only be filled by Devil's Corner pinot noir from Tasmania. 

Greed

The multiple horny pockets of the greed glass just beg for the fake 1787 Chateau Lafitte (purportedly from Thomas Jefferson's wine collection) that went for $156,000.

Pride

How about a 1999 Pride Mountains Vineyard Cabernet Reserve (95 points!) to fill that tall stem? 

Gluttony

The giant belly on this bulbous glass could only be filled by Fat Bastard .

Lust

I'm not even sure how this glass works, but I'd fill it with a Dominatrix Pinot Noir from the Naked Winery in Oregon. 

Envy

The holes in the side of the glass made me laugh out loud. And isn't there a winery in Napa called Envy? Why yes, there is! 

Sloth

My favorite sin ... probably shouldn't go too far out of my way to fill this glass (which requires a second person to do the pouring) with Sleepy Creek Vineyards' (in Illinois??) Little Woody ... oops, too late, sold out. Oh well. Maybe some other time. Can I nap now?
