René Gabriel, a renowned wine journalist, has not only tasted wines in his more than thirty-year wine career, but has also gained extensive experience with wine glasses. For him, an optimal glass must embody the trilogy of "aromatics, facets, volume." In close collaboration with glass designer Siegfried Seidl, he has now created precisely this glass, the GABRIEL-GLAS©: medium-sized, elegant, and affordable. For young and mature wines, whether white, red, or sweet, this glass offers maximum enjoyment. The machine-blown GABRIEL-GLAS© weighs only 160 grams. The hand-blown Gold Edition weighs a feather-light 90 grams. Because the bowl and stem are crafted in a single process, it offers a rarely experienced level of shatter resistance. Dishwasher safe.
