Zalto Wine Glasses
While our Labor Day Sale is over, it’s become apparent that the stemware was rather neglected! What gives?
Therefore, we’ve devised an offer you’ll find hard to resist… spend $200 and get free shipping. If you review all our Zalto offers, you’ll see the best prior to this has been free shipping on a 6-pk.
Take this opportunity to grab Zalto’s new white wine glass!! It has become my new go-to as our household’s wine consumption has shifted towards Champagne on your average Tuesday night.
Sure, we still use the Zalto Champagne glass when we want to celebrate and watch bubbles rise to the surface (nerdy fact: bubbles are 800 times less dense than the delicious liquid gold in which they’re submerged, which is why they rise). Just the process of opening Champagne or a lovely white and pouring it in a Zalto glass can make an ordinary night, something to celebrate!
Come to think of it, that’s true of all the Zalto glasses, regardless of what you pour in them. We’ll sometimes simply enjoy water out of them, in which case the Universal is still our favorite. They feel special…and surely something special must be afoot!
While the Universal used to be my favorite for whites, I find the new White Wine Glass daintier, more modest in its bowl size, so that I might fool myself to believe I’m drinking less, and perfect for those non celebratory times when the point is the wine itself. The white wine glass doesn’t just put the wine on display, it allows it to breath and highlights the subtle particularities, especially the minerality of the wine.
No matter what glass you choose, nor what you fill it with, you’ll find Zalto makes it a special occasion!
Created for the complexity and refinement of charming, focused white wines, this glass will make them sing as never before. The shape of the bowl will highlight and articulate the subtle layers and minerality of the wine. This glass will also bring out the more elegant notes in medium bodied red wine that does not have overt barrique development.
Use for fruit-forward Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Frizzante, Muskateller and unoaked Chardonnay, as well as the style of reds mentioned before such as St.Laurent, Blaufrankisch, Chianti and Dolcetto. Older vintage Champagnes also benefit from the shape of this bowl.
Height: 230mm, Volume Capacity: 400 ml
The Burgundy was crafted specifically for the most powerful and expressive wines in your cellar. The innovative shape of the bowl maximizes the surface area of the wine, challenging it to breathe and develop, to fully integrate the acid into the fruit notes. Then, as the glass is tipped and the wine flows, the more nuanced fruit and sweet notes are enhanced and a more perfectly balanced taste is delivered to the palate. Use this glass with the biggest California Cabernets and Chardonnays, the most powerful Nebbiolo, Barbaresco, Barolo and Barberas, mighty Pinots (Noir, Blanc and Gris) and Burgundy styled wines, and your ripest Gruner Veltliner or Neuburger wines.
Height: 230 mm, Volume capacity: 960 ml
For red and white wines. This glass is all about elegance and finesse, created from a single piece of mouth-blown glass from the lip of the bowl to the base of the stem. It has been hailed by wine lovers as the perfect Riesling glass, but is also particularly fine for Chardonnay and Gruner Veltliner as well as Chianti and roses.
Height: 235 mm, Volume Capacity: 530 ml
Extremely fine and light, the Zalto Champagne will highlight the nobility of even the highest caliber sparkling wine.
Masterfully designed in the classic flute shape, this fine glass elevates the hidden structure and noble appearance of a sparkling wine while high-lighting its minerality and racy layers.
Height: 240mm, Volume Capacity: 220 ml
Shaped to emphasize the best characteristics of truly fine red wine: density, power, extracts and tannins, brought together to form a whole that is so much more than a sum of its parts.The Bordeaux glass is the perfect vehicle for, you guessed it, Bordeaux- but also Brunello, Tempranillo, Sangiovese, Rioja, Merlot, St. Laurent, Zweigelt, Blaufrankisch, Shiraz, Cabernets (Franc and Sauvignon) and similar powerful red wines.
