Glass set ZWIESEL PRIZMA Bordeaux 561 ml — 2-piece wine glasses

The ZWIESEL PRIZMA Bordeaux wine glass set contains two crystal glasses, each with a 561 ml capacity designed specifically for Bordeaux-style red wines. The large bowl shape encourages optimal aeration and concentrates aromas toward the rim, supporting sensory evaluation and enhancing the perception of bouquet and flavour. Made from clear lead-free crystal, these glasses combine clarity with a modern silhouette suitable for both professional hospitality use and home settings.

Advantages

The wide bowl and tapered rim provide controlled oxygen exposure and directional aroma delivery, helping to reveal complex notes in full-bodied red wines. The crystal construction ensures high transparency and sound when handled, while remaining durable for regular use in restaurants, bars or at home. The two-piece set offers consistent glass shape for uniform presentation and portioning.

How to use

Pour an appropriate serving of red wine into the bowl, filling to roughly one-third to allow room for swirling. Swirl gently to promote aeration and sniff near the rim to assess the bouquet. Hold the glass by the stem to avoid warming the wine with your hand and to maintain clarity on the bowl for visual inspection. For tasting, allow the wine a few minutes in the glass to open up before evaluation.

Usage recommendations

Hand wash or use a gentle cycle in a dishwasher according to manufacturer guidelines; avoid high-temperature drying cycles and abrasive detergents to preserve clarity and rim integrity. Store upright in a dust-free cabinet and handle by the stem to minimise fingerprints and reduce the risk of chipping.
