Libbey Perception 13.5 oz red wine glass, 24-case
It's a round-bowled, chip-resistant commercial red wine glass packed 24 per case, sized at 13.5 oz so a 5 to 6 oz pour still leaves room to swirl. We ship it from Calgary to all 10 provinces and 3 territories. Hotels, steakhouses, and banquet halls use it as their house red stem for tasting menus, wine-by-the-glass programs, and plate-up dinner service.

This is the Libbey Perception 13.5 oz red wine glass, 24 per case, the workhorse stem for professional wine service. Hotels, steakhouses, banquet halls, and wine bars across Canada run it as their house red because a 5 to 6 oz pour looks generous in the bowl, and the case format keeps replacement stock identical from one server station to the next. When your floor is doing two dinner turns and a private event at the same time, one bowl size across the whole room is the difference between clean margins and a Friday-night scramble.
Libbey Perception 13.5 oz red wine glass, 24-case: the commercial red stem for Canadian food service
Perception is Libbey's commercial-grade line, made with a chip-resistant rim and a tempered foot that holds up to banquet realities. The 13.5 oz round bowl is sized for reds in the 13 to 14 percent ABV range, wide enough to let a Cab breathe, narrow enough at the rim to keep the ethanol from jumping out. It's the glass you put out when you need one stem that handles a Cabernet, a Bordeaux blend, and a house pour without your servers asking which is which.
Stocked at ChickenPieces.com from our Calgary distribution hub. We deliver Canada-wide, all 10 provinces and 3 territories, in 2-5 business days.
"We sent 36 cases of these to a Niagara wedding venue last fall. They ran three back-to-back plated dinners and lost maybe two glasses. The chip-resistant rim is the quiet win, fewer replacements than standard stemware. I'd stock a case per 200-seat room."
Stemware is where Canadian operators bleed the most, because glass breaks, and it breaks at the worst possible moment. A server drops a tray at 8:45 on a Friday and suddenly you're two glasses short of a full rack with a private party in 15 minutes. The fix isn't buying more glass, it's standardising on one bowl size so your replacement case matches your rack, your tray layout, and your pour spec. Most Canadian wine programs have settled on a single red glass in the 13 to 15 oz range for exactly this reason: one spare case covers the whole floor. If you're building out the rest of your service ware at the same time, our non food range covers the trays, racks, and bar tools that pair with this glass.
Quality & specifications
Commercial-grade crystal-clear glass out of Libbey's North American production. The stem stands 7 3/4 inches tall, with a 2 7/8 inch top diameter, a 3 inch foot, and a 3 5/8 inch maximum bowl width. Capacity is 13.5 oz. The rim is chip-resistant, the foot is tempered, and the case pack is 24 glasses shipped in a divided carton so rims don't touch in transit.
Where it gets used
Banquet red wine service, wine-by-the-glass programs, hotel restaurant dinner service, steakhouse pairings, wedding and event catering, and tasting menu flights. A 5 oz pour of Cabernet, a Bordeaux blend, a Rioja, or a house red all sit cleanly in the bowl without disappearing into glass. It also works as a second stem on a tasting flight when you don't want to stock five different shapes.
Storage & handling
Store in the original case in a cool, dry spot. Keep glasses separated in the dividers so rims never touch rims, which is where most chipping actually starts. Load them rim-up in your glass racks, keep them off the bottom jets in the washer, and let them reach room temperature before a hot wash if they've been sitting in a chilled storage room. Glass doesn't degrade on a shelf, so service life ends with breakage, not age.
Canadian sourcing
Manufactured in the United States, shipped to our Calgary distribution hub, then delivered coast to coast to all 10 provinces and 3 territories. Case-to-case consistency is the point: order this month and the bowl width and rim height match what you're running today. That matters when your servers float between properties or your banquet captain is training new staff on a single pour standard.
