This beautiful wine glass works particularly well with white wines and sparking wines. It allows both still and sparkling wines to breath and still concentrates the aromas to the best effect. The only disadvantage is the delicacy of the glass. I have broken two while gently washing them, so do be very careful. The results when drinking from them makes their delicacy worth the extra care.

These glasses are light and elegant

Espectacular copa, envió perfecto y calidad superior

If you are reading this review, you are contemplating purchasing wine glasses that cost $85 each. First, well done! You must have done something right to be here entertaining such an extravagant purchase. Second, please consider how fortunate you are, thank God, and find a good charity to support that may help others attain the success you have found. Finally, the review:These glasses are the best I have ever used. They are even better than the standard Zalto glasses. The odd look to these glasses is caused by an enlargement toward the bottom of the bowl that allows you to swirl the wine vigorously without the slightest concern of spilling it. That opens the wine up beautifully and presents the aromas at the top of the bowl in a way I have not experienced before. The base of the bowl extends downward into the handle, which creates a very cool looking diamond of red at the base when the glass is full. This red diamond is very very very cool looking. The thin rim gives an ideal feel to you lips when sipping, and adds to the wonderful experience you will have drinking wine from these glasses.I want to try to convince you that these glasses are worth the price. If you are reading this (still) you must enjoy fine quality wines. Such wines are expensive. Depending on your taste, you will notice that a nice bottle of Quintessa is $200. A bottle of any St. Julian Bordeaux will set you back $100-$400. A quality Gaja Nebbiolo can fetch $600. Some Pauillacs go into the thousands of dollars. If you are going to drink such wines, for God's sake, spend the extra $85 dollars for the proper vessel to complete the experience. Even if the glasses are fragile (they are) you will use them over and over before you make a mistake and break them. Even when drinking $30-$75 wines, these will enhance your experience--over and over again.So here is what I recommend: Buy these glasses today. Donate to your favorite charity. Have dinner with someone you love. Cook a rack of lamb. Pour your favorite wine--maybe one you have been saving for a while (I recommend a St. Julien). And toast your good fortune while enjoying the most amazing glasses ever made.**** Update 10/24/22I said these glasses were fragile in my previous review. I have yet to have one break. Just amazing glasses.

Sehr schön! Die sind natürlich schon ganz schön teuer aber eben auch was besonderes! Die Gläser kommen sehr filigran daher, machen aber trotzdem einen stabilen Eindruck!
