Wine Calculator

WINE CALCULATION BASICS (FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE BASE):
1. A quick calculation will keep any wine from going to waste: There are 25 ounces in every bottle (round down to 24 for human error when pouring), so if there are eight guests at the table, the server should be able to pour eight three-ounce glasses without running out. One bottle per person rule of thumb
2. If you're expecting 150 guests, get 180 bottles. There's nothing worse than running out of wine."
3. allot anywhere from a half to three-quarters of a bottle per person, assuming that most guests will drink two glasses with dinner. If the wines will also be served with cocktails, double that amount; guests will likely enjoy a glass or two before sitting down to dine.
4. For a small wedding of less than 70 people, expect to go through at least three cases. Remember, people generally consume more white wine than they do red -- especially in the summer, when it's hot outside -- so consider buying an extra case or two of white.
