Know before you buy
The wide bowl design provides a large surface area, which is essential for aerating delicate, aromatic red wines like Pinot Noir. This shape allows the complex bouquet of Burgundy varietals to develop fully before reaching the palate.
Yes, each piece is individually mouth-blown and handcrafted by artisans. Because of this production method, you may notice slight variations in each glass, which is a hallmark of their unique, artisanal quality.
Lead-free crystal offers the same clarity, brilliance, and resonance as traditional crystal but is more durable and environmentally friendly. It also resists the yellowing that can sometimes occur in lower-quality glassware over time.
With a capacity of 0.95 liters, these glasses are specifically engineered to handle the aeration needs of wines served from magnum bottles. The generous volume ensures there is plenty of room for the wine to breathe.
While the lead-free crystal is durable, we recommend hand-washing these delicate, thin-walled glasses to maintain their finish and prevent breakage. If you must use a dishwasher, ensure the glasses are securely placed and use a gentle cycle.
