Champagne glass Chef and Sommelier FR01V1375 16 cl crystal flute

Chef and Sommelier FR01V1375 16 cl crystal flute is a slim, stemmed glass designed for serving champagne and other sparkling wines. The flute shape preserves bubbles and concentrates aromatic compounds toward the rim, supporting clear presentation and a focused tasting experience. Made from lead-free crystal, the glass combines optical clarity with a lightweight feel, suitable for both professional horeca environments and home use. The stem provides comfortable handling and reduces heat transfer from the hand to the bowl, while the base ensures stability on flat surfaces. The glass is designed to withstand routine use when dishwasher guidelines from the manufacturer are observed.

Advantages

The crystal construction offers high transparency and an elegant appearance without added coloration. Its narrow tulip-like bowl retains carbonation longer than wider glasses and directs aromas to the nose for improved sensory evaluation. The stem separates the hand from the bowl to maintain serving temperature, and the balanced base reduces tipping risk. The glass is compatible with standard hospitality service workflows and is durable enough for repeated professional use when handled according to care instructions.

How to use

Pour chilled sparkling wine gently into the flute up to the recommended level to allow headspace for aromas and controlled effervescence.

For tastings, use one glass per sample and rinse between pours if serving different wines sequentially.
