This is the largest glass in the Zalto line, and can actually hold a full bottle of wine, though you would never guess that because despite its size, the glass itself still feels light and agile in your hand. The design was not based on being the largest just for the sake of it- as with the entire line, the angles follow that of the Earth tilt angles of 24, 48 and 72 degrees.
The size here is to allow for your biggest, most powerful and expressive wines to fully breathe and develop. For the alcohol to integrate with the fruit notes; the acid to balance the tannins (and, when necessary, the oak.)
Use this glass with mighty Cabernets and Chardonnays, the most powerful Nebbiolo, Barbaresco, Barolo and Barberas, and Pinots that lean towards the fruit-bomb style. It is also fascinating to see what an older vintage, more complex white wine will do here, such as a cellared Gruner Veltliner Smaragd or Reserve.
The height of the glass is 9.1 inches and it is 4.9 inches at its widest part. The volume capacity is 960 ml.
All Zalto glasses are lead free. We recommend using a dishwasher rather than hand washing. Please visit our Care & Handling page for more information and tips.
Easy shopping experience from finding the product to checkout. Hassle free delivery. Well packaged glasses. Beautiful product, delicate and refined. We could taste the difference when drinking +20yr French wines. Would shop from Manufactory again.

Best wine glass I have ever used! Makes all my wine better! And customer service is fast and friendly. All in all I couldn’t be happier!
This glass is exactly what the name suggests: balanced. The glass just makes sense in your hand as you pour and hold. It's very cute and easy to drink from. Delicate and lovely.
