A set of two Schramsberg crystal sparkling wine flutes by Bottega del Vino in gift box.
We are delighted to introduce the new Schramsberg crystal sparkling wine flute.
This new flute was hand crafted by Bottega del Vino Crystal in Verona Italy for Schramsberg Vineyards.
The origin of the company is associated with one of Italy’s most famous restaurants: Bottega del Vino in Verona. The restaurant has been in business since 1890 and has a wine list which features 2,800 wines and a cellar of 130,000 bottles. Mr. Barzan, the owner of this restaurant, became frustrated with the quality of existing crystal glasses. Finding the perfect glass to enhance the dining experience of his guests became so important that he started a crystal company with the intent of making stemware that is hand-blown, lead free, ultra clear and dishwasher safe.
Today he has achieved his goal and Craig Roemer our winemaker and vineyard manager was so impressed with the quality of this product that he insisted upon having our own Schramsberg flute.
The flute is a “single pull” stem, meaning it was mouth blown as a single piece and thus there is no weak point between the bowl and the stem. Bottega del Vino Crystal is handmade using a proprietary crystal formulation that is both lead free and dishwasher safe. Indeed we found it to be perfect in weight, balance, clarity and its strength is also impressive.
The safest way to wash these crystal glasses is in the dishwasher. After brushing away any heavy deposits such as lipstick, put them in the dishwasher set to the shortest cycle. Detergent is not necessary. Let the drying time run for a few minutes and finish them with a linen towel. Dry and polish the flute, inside and out. Polishing the inside leaves a small linen residue which helps with bubble formation. Always hold the bowl of the glass rather than the base while drying. Never twist the base and the bowl in opposite directions.
These 8.5 ounce flutes are 10.5 inch tall and feature an elegant rendition of the Schramsberg logo on their foot. They come as a set of two and are packaged in a red gift box that bears the the Bottega del Vino logo.
These elegant flutes enhance the experience and the enjoyment of drinking Schramsberg sparkling wine. Once you try them, we are confident you will agree with us.
