Clear glass wine bottles cost wineries less than wine bottles that are green-tinted.
Answer: False.
Clear glass wine bottles actually cost more (as much as two times more) than those that are green or brownish in color. That’s because the glass needs to be processed more to remove all pigment from the glass (clear bottles therefore also use more energy). In particular, wine bottles used for rosé wines are often quite expensive since consumers want to be able to see the pretty pink color.
