Bordeaux Glas 2er Set 11 202

Wine Description for Bordeaux 2-Piece Set 11 202 by Zalto

Colour & Appearance

The Zalto Bordeaux glass presents itself in its characteristic, finest mouth-blown crystal glass quality with a remarkably thin wall thickness. The elegantly curved bowl and the delicate stem lend every wine – whether ruby red, golden yellow or straw blonde – a brilliant visual presence.

Special Features

Here lies a fascinating misconception: the Zalto Bordeaux glass is far more than merely a vessel for Bordeaux wines. The sophisticated form with its generous bowl and precisely calculated opening makes this glass a universal tool for discerning wine enthusiasts. The special geometry, developed according to the angles of the Earth’s inclination circle, enables optimal oxygen supply and aroma development for an astonishing range of wines – from powerful red wines through elegant Burgundy varieties to complex white wines. The 2-piece set offers the perfect foundation for the ambitious wine lover.

Nose

The shape of the glass directs the aromas concentrated towards the nose, whilst the broad bowl provides ample space for the unfolding of complex bouquets. Whether the dark berry notes of a Cabernet Sauvignon, the spicy nuances of a Syrah or the fine fruit aromas of a Chardonnay – every facet is amplified and precisely conveyed.

Palate

The inward-curved lip contour of the glass guides the wine harmoniously onto the tongue and ensures balanced distribution in the mouth. Tannins feel silkier, acidity more vibrant, fruit more present – the glass architecture highlights the respective characteristics of the wine without dominating.

Food Pairing Recommendations

Perfect for fine dining with dry-aged steaks, rack of lamb with herb crust, game dishes or also aged cheeses. Equally suited to lighter menus with poultry or fish dishes in butter sauce, when corresponding white wines are served.
