Know before you buy
The bowl shape is engineered to balance a wide range of wine styles, from crisp Rieslings to full-bodied Chardonnays and Chiantis. It is designed to highlight the specific nuances and minerality of many different varietals, making it a versatile choice if you prefer to keep a smaller collection of glassware.
Yes, it is dishwasher safe. However, because the glass is exceptionally thin and delicate, we recommend using a gentle cycle and ensuring the glasses are positioned securely so they do not knock against other items during the wash.
The unique angles of the bowl are inspired by the tilt of the Earth, which helps to aerate the wine effectively. This shape directs the wine to specific areas of the palate, accentuating the complexity and finesse of the wine while softening its edges.
The glass is intentionally lightweight to provide a superior sensory experience, but this makes it more fragile than standard machine-made stemware. Always hold the glass by the stem rather than the bowl, and use extra care when polishing or storing it to avoid accidental breakage.
The Zalto Universal is crafted from high-quality, lead-free crystal. This material provides the clarity and thinness associated with luxury stemware without the use of lead additives.
