I would also add that bottles should always be stored horizontally :)

Thanks for your question! I must say, this is quite concerning as consuming glass would be very dangerous. I would recommend that when you open your next bottle you decant it very carefully or use a funnel with a filter to be certain that no glass is poured out. This has never happened to me personally but anything is possible!

Cheers
Dino

I recently enjoyed a bottle of 1998 Chateau Faugeres until the last pour.
In the glass came chunks of green glass, same as the bottle color though this bottle
was completely intact, not broken anywhere.
Ever have this happen? I wrote to Chateau Faugeres about it and
disappointingly they never responded. I have 12 of their
2005 in my cellar and sure hope they are all glass free.
I appreciate any words of wisdom on why this may have happened. I suspect in the bottling process?

Cheers,
Amanda
