How Much Wine Do I Need?

From all-night soirées to holiday feasts, hosting an event of any size or form takes planning. There’s a lot to figure out to ensure things go smoothly. One of the biggest tasks is making sure there is enough wine to go around. But… how much is enough? Use our wine calculator to find out.

How Many Glasses in a Bottle?

The first step is knowing how many glasses there are in a bottle. A standard wine bottle is about 25 ounces, a standard restaurant pour is 5 ounces. So, there are 5 glasses in a bottle.

How Many Glasses Per Person?

Of course, the enthusiasm people have for wine varies, but the average guest will drink about 2-3 5-ounce glasses in a night.

How Many Bottles of Wine Do I Need?

We always say, when in doubt, round up to never run out. If you’re serving more than one kind of wine, you can double our suggestions at left to be on the safe side, or go the more conservative route and stretch each bottle a bit further with smaller pours.

Know Your Crowd

The key to planning well is to think about your guests. Here are a few things to consider:

• The drinking habits of your guests (think about beer & cocktail drinkers, DDs, and others who may abstain)
• Other beverages you may be serving
• The amount of food you’re making
• The length of your event
• The alcohol content (ABV) of the wines you’ve chosen
• Random guests who show up uninvited
