Know before you buy
While the Marsala glass is versatile, its shape and capacity are optimized to aerate and concentrate the aromas of medium-to-full-bodied red wines, such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot.
To preserve the clarity and the delicate etched details, we recommend hand-washing these glasses in warm, soapy water. Avoid the dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can cause clouding or damage to the crystal over time.
Yes, the opaque black finish obscures the color and clarity of the wine. These glasses are intended for those who prioritize the sensory experience of aroma and taste over the visual inspection of the wine's hue.
These are crafted from high-quality lead crystal, which is known for its brilliance and weight. While they are durable, they are still delicate pieces of stemware that require careful handling and storage compared to everyday glassware.
Each glass has a volume capacity of 230 ml, or approximately 7.8 ounces. This size is ideal for a standard pour, allowing enough room in the bowl for the wine to breathe.
