Zalto Universal Wine Glass

SKU #1052596

Zalto is an exquisite line of mouth-blown, lead-free glassware from Austria. They're elegant and lightweight while being dishwasher safe. These stunning glasses are amazing to hold and use, and they can accentuate complexity and finesse, whether you're sipping a full-bodied, powerful wine or one with minerality and smooth character. Though the name is Universal, this style of glass especially enhances Chardonnay, Chianti, Riesling, and Smaragd wines from Wachau. Wine authority Jancis Robinson on Zalto glasses: "I made at least four great wine discoveries on Sunday when in Berlin for the VDP's centenary. One of them wasn't a wine at all but a set of particularly fine, handblown wine glasses...and it was difficult not to feel the spirits lift as one of these delicate, super-light glasses was pressed into my hand," Robinson reported in a September, 2010 article. Price is per stem for this SKU.

It is amazing how much difference a glass can make in the drinking experience. Not only the actual technical factors of concentrating the aromas and delivering the bouquet in just the right way, but also the feel of the glass. The rim on your lips, the way the wine cascades over the edge, the weight and balance of the delicate hand blown stem in your hand, it all conspires to elevate any wine you put in it. This is what we have here in the Zalto Universal glass. While they do make varietal specific options as well (also available at K&L) the Universal is the one to get if you want the most versatile experience and the same set of glasses for everything. It both universal for varietals and universally adored.

After hearing the name Zalto Universal come up in many a serious conversation about the go-to wine glass for collectors and connoisseurs, I was thrilled to see them land on our shelves a few months ago. It meets my three big demands for premium glassware - it certainly enhances the wine, it feels lightweight but balanced, and it is sturdy enough I can put it in the dishwasher and not have to worry about it breaking. They do make specialized versions for Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Champagne, but when it comes down to it, nothing beats an versatile glass that can stand up to the quality of any wine you want to casually enjoy on an everyday basis.
