Schott Zwiesel 7544403 Pure Bordeaux 130 Crystal Wine Glass, 6-Piece

EXCEPTIONALLY pleased with these glasses. In many ways I prefer them to my Zalto Universals. Firstly, I like the fact they are crystal glasses without the *lead* or the price tag. Being crystal means they look the part as they have that crystal brilliance and produce a fantastic ring. No need for any tricks like ghastly vinegar or lemon to make them shine...it comes built-in!! Unlike other crystal ware, these are easy to keep as they can be washed in a dishwasher. Secondly, they are far more robust than Zalto ware, which I always handle as though with kid gloves...they break easily. But with strength comes the downside - they are heftier. And you don't get that feeling of being closer to the wine that some people like with Zalto's. Neither an issue for me. Finally, I find this shape more distinctive and uncommon compared to a.n.other tulip glass. Regarding quality, I can feel a seam on the stem, which is presumably a side-effect of the cheaper mass-production method of production. I can see this being a show-stopper for the more critical consumer, but it doesn't bother me in the slightest. The price/value proposition these glasses offer make it a no-brainer - I'll be buying these in future.

Love these wine glasses. Had a set of 6 in Boston and bought another 6 when we moved to London. Great value and we often get compliments on them when guests come over.

I had the champagne flutes already so wanted these to match. They look lovely, very stylish, thin so be careful because if you go through glasses as quick as I do!!! Would recommend.

Happy with the product

Great glasses

Generally happy

Great value

These are really nice looking glasses and indeed very versatile so we are using them as universal glasses. I also love the logo that is engraved on the base which is a musical note which is a great touch. I have to agree with other reviews on the fact that the stem has quite a "cheap" feel to it as you can feel that it's two parts that have been brought together. If Zwiesel would have smoothed this over a bit better they would be 5 star glasses

Conozco esta marca desde hace mucho tiempo. Me encanta su cristalería fina. No pesan nada y muy agradable a la hora de tomar sea una copa de vino o un vaso de agua… Pero esta vez me he equivocado. El cristal es más grueso, además el tamaño no es lo que esperaba encontrar.

Mejora la experiencia al beber vino ( el cristal al ser poroso, contribuye a airear el vino en copa). No tan espectaculares como las Gabriel Glass en su función de despertar aromas; pero excelente compra pues 6 de estas cuestan lo que una Gabriel Glass gold.

Wine tastes and looks better in these beautiful glasses. I'll likely be ordering the burgandy Pure glasses at some point.

good

These glasses are perfect for red wine and a lovely shape. Would highly recommend.
