Zalto

“Precision Instrument” Stemware & Carafes Back in Stock
Zalto

For all those who have been patiently waiting, we’re delighted to offer the full range of Zalto glasses—including the Burgundy and Bordeaux models that have been out of stock. Most of our customers are already familiar with these unsurpassable stems, so there is little else for us to say. Simply, the finer the glass, the more pleasurable it is to drink from. Used by the top restaurants, winemakers and wine-lovers the world over, there is no finer glass we know of than Zalto.

 

“Owning an exquisite set of glasses like the Zalto Universals can be a joy…
I think they are still hard to beat.”
Eric Asimov, The New York Times

Zalto Burgundy Glass 2 Pack

The wide bowl in this glass provides maximum surface area, allowing the different components of the wine to open up and ‘show’ with great precision. Particularly good for wines that are both tightly wound and old and complex (you miss nothing!). If it is young and open, it’s better off in one of the smaller shapes above. Obviously great with Burgundy, but what you use it for is only limited by your imagination!

Zalto Carafe No 67

New to the Zalto line, this hybrid carafe/decanter skilfully combines a slim silhouette with a longer neck and sees itself as the perfect addition to the existing range. Equally suitable for wine and non-alcoholic drinks, this carafe is perfectly balanced, and the longer neck makes it easier to pour at the table. Due to the tapering upwards and the narrow neck, it is also ideal for decanting sparkling wines. The ball “closure” rests on the rim to protect against external influences and capture the decanting effect and the aroma of the valuable content!

Zalto Decanter Axium

While some glassware manufacturers seem intent on steering decanter design into the realm of flamboyant objets d'art, Zalto crafts only two simple yet beautiful, function-over-form designs. They both look and handle with style and, more importantly, they are practical and just work. They are also both brilliant value. The Axium is the smaller of the two and is designed for medium-bodied red wines and medium to full-bodied white wines.

Zalto Spittoon 250 Green

Spit in style! A beautiful alternative to the traditional spit bucket. Available for either the lone taster (500 ml) or table (2500 ml) for larger tastings. Zalto introduced this specialist product to avoid such a stilbruch (clashing of style), between their elegant glassware and unsightly spit buckets. We love the colours, too. An extravagance, for sure, but sometimes a little extravagance goes a long way. A great gift for the serious taster.

Zalto Spittoon 250 Red

Zalto's elegant, smoked glass spittoons are mouth-blown and available in two sizes; the 250 table model is 210 mm tall and holds 2600 ml while the smaller 50 mm model, ideal for a single taster, is 130 mm with a 610 ml capacity. Explaining the decision to introduce this specialist product, Zalto's Thomas Zichtl told The Drinks Business magzine: "Many of the finest wine producers in Austria and Italy are using Zalto to present their wines to the public at either fairs or at their wineries, and while the top wines are served in Zalto glasses at professional tastings, the sampled wine is very often returned into a plastic bucket or some kind of cooler with a lid." Continuing he said: "We did not like this 'Stilbruch', or clashing with the style, so Zalto thought about an aesthetic solution and the Zalto 'Restweinkaraffe - as we call our spittoon - was realised, with a big one for the table and small one for professional tasters."

Zalto Sweet Wine Glass 2 Pack

Two Pack. Another stunning glass. This shape showcases the elegance and finesse of sweet wines perfectly. Its shape is designed to balance the acidity, power and sweetness of great sweet wines (although the ‘White Wine’ glass also does a good job with such wines). Works with Sauternes, Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese, Eiswein, Port and Madeira.

Zalto White Wine Glass 2 Pack

A great glass for young Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and other racy aromatics. Also terrific for young Chablis, as well as lighter-bodied reds. If you are familiar with the popular Riedel Riesling/Sangiovese glass, this would be your closest match. We also use this glass for Sherries, some sparkling wines and spirits. It can work perfectly as a general glass for both whites and reds.

If you are familiar with the popular Riedel Riesling/Sangiovese glass, this would be your closest match. We also use this glass for Sherries, some sparkling wine and spirits—when Melanie Tesseron of Cognac Tesseron was in Australia this was the glass we used at the tastings. Melanie was totally won over both with the glass and its suitability for her Cognacs. It can work perfectly well as a general glass for both whites and reds.

“If you’re looking for glasses and your budget tiptoes into hand-blown territory, though, these are, truly, the best I’ve ever used.” Andrew Jefford, Decanter



”Buy a set of Zalto wine glasses. A good glass does not just dramatically alter the perception of a wine’s taste and smell, sometimes improving it two or three or more fold, it is also an object of beauty in itself. Zalto are the glasses with which wine pros are currently obsessed.”
Victoria Moore, The Telegraph
