FAQs

Are these glasses dishwasher safe?

Yes, they are designed to be dishwasher safe, but we recommend using a gentle cycle and proper stemware rack placement to prevent breakage.

Can I use these for wines other than Cabernet Franc?

Absolutely. While optimized for Cabernet Franc, the 550ml bowl is excellent for many medium-to-full-bodied red wines.

What is the total height of the glass?

The glass measures 24.4 cm in height.

Is the material lead-free crystal?

Schott Zwiesel is renowned for using high-quality Tritan crystal technology, which is durable and lead-free.

Does the wide base make it difficult to store?

The base is 9.2 cm in diameter, which is standard for professional stemware. Ensure your shelving has enough depth to accommodate this footprint.

Troubleshooting

Cloudy spots on the glass after washing

These are likely mineral deposits from hard water; buff the glass with a clean, dry microfiber cloth or use a vinegar-based solution to remove residue.

Glass feels wobbly on flat surfaces

Check the base for debris or ensure the surface is level; if the base itself is deformed, contact the manufacturer regarding potential manufacturing defects.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Expertly shaped to enhance red wine aeration
  • High-clarity crystal material for an elegant aesthetic
  • Tall stem effectively prevents heat transfer from hands
  • Stable wide base design minimizes accidental spills
  • Ideal volume for optimal wine development

Cons

  • Requires careful manual handling due to crystal construction
  • Large height may not fit in all standard kitchen cupboards
  • More fragile than heavy-duty glass alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your crystal remains in pristine condition, avoid stacking the glasses in your cupboard to prevent edge chipping. When hand-washing, use warm water and a mild, fragrance-free detergent to avoid leaving lingering scents on the crystal surface. Always hold the glass by the bowl rather than the stem while washing to avoid torque-related breakage. If using a dishwasher, ensure the glasses are securely positioned in a rack designed specifically for stemware to prevent them from knocking against other dishes. Dry immediately with a lint-free microfiber cloth to maintain the signature shine of the Schott Zwiesel crystal.
