Zalto Universal Wine Glass 6 pack

“Owning an exquisite set of glasses like the Zalto Universals can be a joy… I think they are still hard to beat.”
Eric Asimov The New York Times

Most of our customers are already familiar with these unsurpassable stems, so there is little else for us to say. Simply, the finer the glass, the more pleasurable it is to drink from. Used by the top restaurants, winemakers and wine-lovers the world over, there is no finer glass that we know of.

Zalto Universal Wine Glass is one of the most versatile and widely admired wine glasses in the world, designed to handle an extraordinary range of styles with precision and elegance. Mouth blown in Austria by skilled craftsmen, it combines feather light delicacy with remarkable balance and strength. This is a glass built not to impress visually, but to disappear once the wine is poured, allowing the wine itself to take centre stage.

The Universal glass is designed to work seamlessly with everything from Pinot Noir, Nebbiolo and Sangiovese through to Chardonnay, Riesling and even refined sparkling wines. The bowl shape encourages aromatics to rise naturally without exaggeration, while the gentle taper focuses detail and clarity. The ultra fine rim delivers the wine smoothly across the palate, enhancing texture, integrating acidity and revealing nuance that can easily be lost in heavier glassware.

What sets the Zalto Universal Wine Glass apart is its neutrality. It does not sweeten fruit, mute minerality or soften structure artificially. Elegant wines show more finesse, powerful wines feel more composed, and subtle wines gain definition and length. It is a glass trusted by top sommeliers and winemakers because it tells the truth about what is in the bottle.

Despite its refined feel, the glass is designed for real world use. It is dishwasher safe and surprisingly durable for such a light vessel, making it suitable for both everyday enjoyment and special bottles. Many collectors find it becomes the default glass once they experience how adaptable and honest it is across different wines.

Zalto Universal Wine Glass is not about matching glass to grape. It is about creating the best possible connection between wine and drinker. Pure, precise and beautifully made, it is one of the most useful and rewarding wine glasses you can own.
