Schott Zwiesel MioVino

First check whether you need stemmed glasses or tumblers. For red wine there are two sizes: a 50 cl stemmed glass for everyday bottles and a 69 cl Burgundy glass for wines that need room to open up. For white wine there is the 38 cl stemmed glass, small enough to keep the wine cold. The champagne glass holds 26 cl and is roomier than a narrow flute, allowing you to enjoy more of the aroma. The tumblers hold water and soft drinks in 41 and 42.5 cl sizes and mainly differ in height, so measure your cabinet layout before choosing.

The fill line on the tumbler indicates where to stop pouring, which is especially useful when serving a table and you don't want to measure each glass individually. Fill a wine glass to just below its widest point and leave the space above it empty for the aroma. The 26 cl champagne glass is spacious enough for a Aperol Spritz or a Hugo Spritz, adding the ice first, then the liqueur, and the Prosecco last so it stays sparkling.

MioVino is made of Tritan crystal glass, the lead-free glass from Schott Zwiesel reinforced with titanium and zirconium. That keeps the rim and stem clear rather than dull after hundreds of wash cycles. The glasses may go in the dishwasher, provided you place them apart from one another in the rack. Let them dry upright and finish with a linen cloth.

Would you like more choice from the same house? The full range from Schott Zwiesel is ready, including sets of six for larger tables. If you are looking for a broader overview of wine glasses in other sizes and price ranges, the general wine category is a wider starting point. If you want to set a table that needs to withstand daily rotation, then catering glassware is a sturdier starting point, because those glasses are built to withstand wear and tear.
