A wine glass constructed from molded plastic includes an upper body defining an upwardly narrowed flume for concentrating the wine bouquet, in combination with a contoured lower base defining an annular moat surrounding a central punt for enhanced visual inspection of the wine. In addition, the upper body further includes a notched indent at an outboard side thereof forming a shelf for facilitated fingertip grasping and manipulation of the assembled glass. In one form, the upper body and lower base of the wine glass are provided as separate modules adapted for assembly to form the wine glass, and disassembly for respective compact stacking. In another form, the wine glass has a one-piece construction adapted for compact stacking by nested reception of the upwardly narrowed flume partially into the underside of the lower base of an overlying glass in the stack.

The beverage glass of claim 1 wherein said upper rim is of a size and shape for nested and partial mating reception of said lower base to accommodate stacking of a plurality of glasses. 9. The beverage glass of claim 1 further including a lid for removably closing said mouth. 10. The beverage glass of claim 1 wherein said inner cup is generally coaxially aligned with said mouth and has a circumferential size of at least about ½ the circumferential size of said mouth. 11. A beverage glass, comprising: an upper generally shell-shaped body terminating at an upper rim in an open mouth;a lower base defining a recessed annular moat at a lower end of said upper body, said annular moat cooperatively defined by an inner moat wall defining a central punt and an outer moat wall, together said inner moat wall and said outer moat wall define an included angle of about 10-20 degrees; andan upwardly concave central inner cup circumscribed by and extending downwardly into said punt, said inner cup having an outer convex surface entirely externally accessible for convenient fingertip support;wherein said upper body, said lower base, and said inner cup are substantially transparent. 12. The beverage glass of claim 11 wherein said shell-shaped body defines an upwardly narrowing tapered flume terminating in said rim defining said open mouth. 13. The beverage glass of claim 12 wherein said rim is positioned in substantial vertical alignment with said punt. 14. The beverage glass of claim 11 wherein said upper body further includes an external notched indent formed therein and defining an exterior shelf having a size and shape for convenient fingertip grasping. 15. The beverage glass of claim 11 wherein said glass is constructed from plastic. 16. The beverage glass of claim 11 wherein said upper body, said lower base, and said inner cup comprise a unitary one-piece construction. 17. The beverage glass of claim 11 wherein said upper body and said central cup cooperatively define a focal zone extending generally from about ½ inch above said cup to about ½ inch below said mouth to magnify light entering the glass through said cup, for correspondingly magnifying liquid contained within said cup. 18. The beverage glass of claim 11 wherein said upper rim is of a size and shape for nested and partial mating reception of said lower base to accommodate stacking of a plurality of glasses. 19. The beverage glass of claim 11 further including a lid for removably closing said mouth. 20. The beverage glass of claim 11 wherein said inner cup is generally coaxially aligned with said mouth and has a circumferential size of at least about ½ the circumferential size of said mouth. 21. A beverage glass, comprising: a generally shell-shaped body defining an upwardly narrowing tapered flume terminating in a rim terminating in an open mouth, said shell-shaped body further including an external indent formed therein defining an exterior shelf having a size and shape for convenient fingertip grasping;a base at a lower end of said shell-shaped body, said base defining a recessed annular moat surrounding an upstanding central punt, wherein said moat is cooperatively defined by an inner moat wall and an outer moat wall defining an included angle of about 10-20 degrees; andan upwardly concave central inner cup circumscribed by and extending downwardly into said punt and having an outer convex surface entirely externally accessible for convenient fingertip support;wherein said upper body, said lower base, and said inner cup are substantially transparent. 22. The beverage glass of claim 21 wherein said external indent comprises a non-circumferential notched indent. 23. The beverage glass of claim 21 wherein said upper body and said central cup cooperatively define a focal zone extending generally from about ½ inch above said cup to about ½ inch below said mouth to magnify light entering the glass through said cup, for correspondingly magnifying liquid contained within said cup. 24. The beverage glass of claim 21 wherein said upper body, said lower base, and said inner cup comprise a unitary one-piece construction. 25.
