Zwiesel Glas Red Wine Glasses Prizma - Bordeaux - 561 ml - 2 pieces

You open a bottle of Barolo. The deep ruby red glows in the light. Now there's just one thing missing: a glass that truly does justice to that wine. Not just any glass from the cupboard, but a glass that opens up the aromas, plays with the light, and elevates the entire experience. That's exactly what the Zwiesel Glas Red Wine Glasses Prizma - Bordeaux do for you.

Breaking Light, Making Wine Sparkle

The name Prizma is no coincidence. Just like a real prism, this glass breaks the light in a way that literally makes your wine shine. This is not just marketing talk - it’s the result of a thoughtful design where every curve and angle is chosen for a reason. At the table, you create a moment that your guests won’t soon forget. Pouring a glass of wine becomes a small, tasteful ritual.

But a beautiful glass is not enough if it doesn’t also allow the wine to taste as it should. Fortunately, the Prizma does its job equally well in that regard.

Why This Glass Makes Your Red Wine Taste Better

The spacious bowl of 561 ml is specially designed for red wine. That extra space is not a luxury - it’s the reason why you taste a Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, or Syrah from this glass very differently than from an ordinary wine glass. Red wine needs air to open up. The wide bowl ensures that a larger surface area of the wine comes into contact with oxygen, allowing the aromas to fully develop.

Fill the glass one third full, gently tilt it, and let the wine swirl around. Then you’ll taste the difference - fruitier, rounder, more depth. This is how red wine should taste.

• Spacious bowl of 561 ml - gives red wine all the room to breathe and release aromas
• Prism effect - breaks the light and gives every drop of wine a subtle, beautiful sparkle
• Height of 24.2 cm - a stately, stylish glass that adorns the table without being excessive
• Tritan crystal glass - brilliantly clear, scratch-resistant, and significantly stronger than regular glass
• Dishwasher safe - remains brilliantly clear even after hundreds of washes
• Set of 2 - perfect for an evening for two, or as an addition to your collection

Tritan Crystal Glass: The Smart Choice for Everyday Use

Zwiesel Glas uses their own Tritan crystal glass for the Prizma series - and for good reasons. Regular crystal glass contains lead and is fragile. Tritan crystal glass has the clarity and shine of traditional crystal, but without the downsides. It is more scratch-resistant, better at resisting breakage, and above all: completely dishwasher safe.

The latter is no small detail. Because who wants to dry every glass by hand after a successful dinner? Just put them in the dishwasher. After hundreds of wash cycles, the glasses remain as clear and sparkling as on the first day. No dulling, no streaks, no hassle. That’s the practical side of quality - and exactly why Zwiesel Glas has enjoyed the trust of both restaurant professionals and home enthusiasts for decades.

Tritan crystal glass is also lead-free, making it a more conscious choice. Clear, safe, and sustainable in use.

Which Wines Is This Glass Made For?

Zwiesel Glas has specifically tailored this glass for the great red wines of the world. Think of full-bodied, complex grape varieties and wines that need space to breathe:

• Cabernet Sauvignon - the classic that belongs in this glass
• Merlot and Syrah - silky and spicy, best in a spacious bowl
• Barolo and Barbaresco - the great Italian wines from the Nebbiolo grape
• Brunello di Montalcino and Chianti Classico - Tuscan icons that require space
• Rioja Reserva and Gran Reserva - Spanish depth at its best
• Malbec, Grenache, and Sangiovese - for those who love character
• Bordeaux blends and Priorat - powerful wines that this glass won’t overwhelm

In short: if you have a bottle at home that you really want to taste - then this is the glass that lets it speak.

💡 Cookinglife Tip: Always pour red wine one third full - so a maximum of about 185 ml in this glass. This literally gives the wine the space to release its aromas. Gently swirl the glass and smell first before tasting. That first nose already tells half the story of the wine.

A Glass That Fits Your Table Moment

Whether you’re opening a spontaneous midweek bottle or setting a festive dinner for friends - the Prizma glasses fit every moment. They are stylish enough for a special evening, but also practical enough for just enjoying on a Tuesday. And because they come in a set of 2, you have the perfect pair at home right away.

This is the kind of glass that you will enjoy year after year. No buying and replacing a year later - Tritan crystal glass lasts, glass after glass, dinner after dinner.
