Sophienwald strives to do justice to the widest possible range of wines with as few types of glasses as possible. By combining in-depth knowledge of aroma and flavor development with the finest traditional glass-blowing techniques, Sophienwald has succeeded in producing the best wine glasses in the world. Only a handful of the world's best glassblowers are able to produce the extremely thin glasses. The Sophienwald glasses are similar in style to Zalto and Zieher.

The Phoenix collection from Sophienwald® consists of an extensive series of specially designed glasses in which the very best wines are optimally displayed. Completely handmade, feather-light and ideal for intensive use, for demanding wine lovers. In this range you will also find a glass for beers, dessert wines and spirits. The Phoenix Bordeaux glass has a height of 22.8 cm and a capacity of 570 ml, making it ideal for the more typical Bordeaux wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, but also for the Italian Sangiovese or Spanish Tempranillo.

The slightly higher cup provides more distance between the wine and the nose, allowing the nose to reach deeper into the glass without feeling too much evaporation of the alcohol. The smaller opening, compared to the other red wine glass, allows less air contact, so the aromas, acidity and tannins do not develop quickly. This provides a more intense aroma and the slightly smaller opening brings the wine deeper into the mouth for a more balanced taste experience. Ideal for medium-bodied wines, white and red wines. This is also the glass from the Phoenix series, which is universal and recommended if you choose to use one nice set of glasses.

ABOUT SOPHIENWALD

The craft of mouth-blown glass is in the DNA. The Sophienwald® head office is located in Nagelberg (Austria), where world-renowned mouth-blown glass has been manufactured since 1725. During its heyday, thousands of people worked in the glass industry and the most extravagant glass shapes were produced. The glass art from that region was in demand at the time and stood for the highest quality and know-how. In 2014, Engineer Gerhard Illek revived this tradition and started producing the best wine glasses in the world under the brand name Sophienwald®. He merged Design, Design and Technology with the traditional techniques from 1725. These combine to create top quality: 100% artisanal, handmade and mouth-blown glassware that meets the highest quality requirements.
