Well. "Large" 250 ml (wine drinking) vessel? My current Red Wine glasses are whatever comes after "large," then. Bit of research was required, having a later obligation I poured a pint of water into one of these suckers and behold, it wasn't much more then a reasonable "working"pour, eg, one that allowed a bit of snobbish twirling to bring out the bo-kay or whatever that's supposed to do. Intrigued, I dug out the box; 22.3 oz is the official. Had I employed your most exemplary christening method to the box of eight in one sitting, I wouldn't be here... not sure where I was going with all this but maybe it was to ask, isn't an Englishman's home still his castle? If so, I'd be glad to post you a couple of these Glasses; I don't any more have anywhere near seven friends with whom I might be sharing red wine simultaneously. The scolds can go to hell in their own handbaskets. Red wine in particular has gone from good for ya to gonna kill ya fer sher at least twice in my lifetime; they can't even figure out which end is up. But (as a previous contributor observed) making shrinkflation good for ya is always going to be a winner.

All the best, sir.

People paying the same for less, sanctioned by a Cambridge prof? I bet her research is extremely well-funded.
