Product Description
Luigi Bormioli Allegro 16-1/4-Ounce Chardonnay Wine Glasses, Set of 4: Kitchen & Dining. Luigi Bormioli covers this set with a 25-year guarantee against discoloration and any chips incurred from regular household application to the stemware’s rims and feet. Serve a crisp Sauvignon Blanc or a buttery California Chardonnay with this attractive wine glass set from the Luigi Bormioli Allegro stemware collection. The set provides four 16-1/4-ounce Chardonnay glasses. Made at Luigi Bormioli’s Parma, Italy headquarters, the Allegro stemware aspires to radiate its musical namesake’s lively and cheerful qualities in its brilliant appearance and durability. Each glass features a somewhat more robust tulip-shaped bowl than most white wine glasses and is intended for serving less sweet varietals, rather than champagne, dessert wines, and spritzers. The glass’s thin, beadless rim rounds inward to preserve the wine’s aroma, and the wider bowl allows swirling ease so enophiles can note the wine’s legs to evaluate its richness and body.The wine glass set reflects the legacy of glass artistry of founder Bormioli’s native Parma and the similar reputation his company has built since its 1946 inception. The company continues to construct stemware from only the purest sands and natural ingredients and to maintain traditional hand glassblowing techniques, yet Luigi Bormioli also embraces modern technology, such as the 2007 introduction of their innovative, lead-free SON.Hyx glass, featured in Allegro stemware. The caliber of clarity and sonority of SON.Hyx’s crystalline construction rivals the industry standard of lead crystal, even exceeding the old standby with greatly enhanced resilience against chips from the stemware’s base up to the bowl’s brim. The dishwasher-safe stemware resists discoloration and upholds its sparkle for over 400 wash cycles. Each Chardonnay glass in the set stands 8-1/3 inches high with a 7-inch bowl and foot circumference.
