Wine Glass

The shape and size of a wine glass decide how much air the wine gets and how long it stays at the right temperature. This category has wine glasses in crystalline glass from 350 ml to 880 ml, sold in sets of 2 or 6, from the Wilmax Crystalline, Shelley, Undina and Diamond lines.

Red or white: choosing the size

• 350–470 ml – smaller bowls for white and rosé; a smaller pour stays chilled to the last sip.
• 580–600 ml – an all-round size for a glass of red with dinner, with room left to swirl.
• 680 ml Burgundy – a large, round bowl for aromatic reds, in a set of 6.
• 800–880 ml chardonnay – a tall bowl that gathers the aroma of an oaked white; also good for a light red.

Shelley glasses, 21–23 cm tall, stand firmly on a crowded table and fit a standard cupboard. Diamond glasses stand on an unusually tall stem of 28–29 cm.

Care

According to the product pages, most of the glasses are dishwasher safe. The Diamond glasses are for hand washing only.

Serve the wine from a wine carafe, add champagne glasses for a toast, or see the Diamond collection.
