With summer upon us and the festive season a near prospect, there are going to be some fine bottles going around. Great wines deserve the best glasses, and the best is Zalto. Our latest shipment of glassware has just landed and includes just about all you could wish for: an array of precision stems alongside elegantly stylish decanters, carafes and spittoons. Our affection for the indispensable Zalto Universal glass is total, yet there is much joy to be found in its more specifically attuned siblings—glasses for Burgundy, Bordeaux, Champagne and more. We also offer the Balance, designed to bring out the best in new-wave artisanal/low-intervention wines that emphasise texture and structure as much as fruit. Zalto’s first new glass in over a decade is slightly smaller than the Bordeaux and Burgundy glasses, while the signature Zalto angle is even more pronounced. Like every Zalto glass, it is mouthblown and combines beautiful delicacy with surprising robustness—see here for a demonstration courtesy of wine writer Jamie Goode (the review for Corofin Wrekin Chardonnay comes free)! “Owning an exquisite set of glasses like the Zalto Universals can be a joy,” wrote New York Times critic Eric Asimov. We invite you to allow yourself that joy—and perhaps even share it with others as celebration season gets into full swing.
