Set of four Lumarko wine glasses, each with a capacity of 474 ml, manufactured to NACHTMANN model 85692 specifications. These glasses feature a generous bowl and a stable stem, reflecting a modern, functional design lineage linked to the Vivendi aesthetic associated with Walter Gropius: clear lines, everyday durability and restrained elegance. The set is intended for serving red or white wine in home dining, entertaining and tasting situations. Check dishwasher suitability with the manufacturer before routine machine washing.
Advantages
The Lumarko wine glass set provides uniform capacity across four matching pieces, allowing consistent serving sizes and a coordinated table presentation. The large bowl supports aeration of wines, while the stable stem helps to control glass temperature and handling. The design balances practical daily use with a contemporary, minimalist appearance drawn from NACHTMANN specifications.
Suitable for
- Serving red wine that benefits from a larger bowl for aeration
- Serving white wine when a larger glass is preferred
- Home dining and family meals
- Small dinner parties and informal entertaining
- Wine tasting and comparative pouring
Key specifications
- Set quantity: 4 glasses
- Individual capacity: 474 ml (per glass)
- Design style: modern, minimalist bowl with stem
- Primary use: wine service (red and white)
How to use
Hold the glass by the stem to avoid warming the wine with your hand. Pour wine to an appropriate level to allow aroma concentration in the bowl; for a 474 ml glass, typical serving pours will be considerably less than full capacity to permit swirling and smelling. Use the glasses for tasting, serving at the table, or casual drinking. Confirm care instructions from the manufacturer for cleaning; if dishwasher use is permitted, place glasses securely to prevent contact and movement during the cycle.
Usage recommendations
For optimal sensory evaluation, pour smaller tasting portions rather than filling the glass; this preserves space for aroma development and prevents accidental spills. When storing, keep the glasses upright in a stable cabinet space to protect rims and stems.
