Champagne sharing made easy

'Tis the season for pouring champagne. But sometimes it's difficult to get it just right, particularly if you're unsure just how frothy the particular bubbly you bought will be.

Something called the Fair Share Fountain will equally distribute one bottle of champagne into six glasses and entertain while it's doing it.

The set of six handblown Pyrex glasses (purchasing details here) has a graduated stem size from tallest, into which you pour the champagne, to smallest. All but the smallest has a flared lip that allows the poured wine to trickle into the next-smallest glass, thus creating equal distribution.
