I have now:

http://www.infradead.org/~wmp/tall_glass.svg

Download the file, open it in Inkscape. You'll see a half-cross-section of a
full wine glass as two separate curves. Export the curves separately as
POV-Ray splines; the output files will be prisms. Simply convert them to
lathes by removing the two height values and replacing the keyword 'prism'
with 'lathe'. Import them into the scene of your choice, union them for
ease of use, add the desired glass/water/wine textures and wahey!

Looks great with reflection { 0.1 }, conserve_energy and lots of photons.
