JOSEPHINE No 1 - Handmade White Wine Glasses Set of 2

The JOSEPHINE No 1 glass is perfectly suited for enjoying delicate, fruity, and light white wines, as well as rosés. When poured into this glass, young varieties such as Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, and Grüner Veltliner leave a focused, balanced, and concentrated impression. Similarly, lighter wines such as Chasselas, Müller-Thurgau, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, and Silvaner also fare well in the JOSEPHINE No 1. This versatile glass is equally suitable for serving lightly chilled red wines like Trollinger, Gamay, and Pinot Noir. Remarkably, even fortified wines such as Port, Madeira, and Sherry shine when presented in this exquisite glass, yet its particular strength lies in showcasing fine Rieslings. This includes Rieslings that possess a touch of residual sweetness and an elegant finesse.

Crafted in 2019 by Kurt Josef Zalto*, the Chief Designer at Josephinenhütte, each glass is mouth-blown and handmade in Europe, making every piece a unique work of art. The JOSEPHINE No 1 is part of an award-winning collection that boasts accolades such as the Red Dot, Iconic, GQ Home, and House Beautiful awards.

With dimensions of 24 cm (9.45") in height and a diameter of 8.2 cm (3.23"), it holds a generous volume of 450 ml (15.22 oz). The unique shape of the JOSEPHINE No 1 not only enhances the drinking experience of light, filigree, and fruity wines but also allows sparkling wines to develop their character in a distinctive manner, showcasing their full size and elegance.

To maintain the beauty of your JOSEPHINE No 1 glasses, using a soft linen cloth and a watercolor brush is recommended. Additionally, these glasses are dishwasher-safe, merging convenience with elegance for your wine enjoyment.

It is notable that Kurt Josef Zalto, the designer behind this masterpiece, was a co-founder, designer, and managing director of Zalto Glasmanufaktur GmbH before becoming the founding partner and chief designer at Josephinenhütte GmbH in 2019. Importantly, since 2009, he has no business connection with the current Zalto Glas GmbH, and Josephinenhütte maintains no economic ties with them either.

In summary, if you're looking to elevate your wine-drinking experience, the JOSEPHINE No 1 glass should not be overlooked. Its design enhances the nuance and complexity of various wines, making it an essential addition to any wine lover's collection.
