When it comes to the evening tipple, no need for a crystal goblet (especially if the vintage on offer is a go-to everyday table wine). A simple, sturdy, chuck-in-the-dishwasher, double-as-water-glass vessel does the trick. Here's a roundup of our favorites:

Jasper Morrison Goblet

Above: Francesca's choice for everyday is the Alessi Wine Goblet, designed by Jasper Morrison, which easily fits in the dishwasher; $9 each at Unica Home.

Gigogne Glass

Above: Made in France (and virtually indestructible), the Gigogne Glass by Duralex is available in two sizes (7.5 or 5.75 ounces); $25 for a set of six at Brook Farm General Store.

Rosendahl's Opus Wine Glass
