Often choosing the right glass is more difficult than choosing the right wine. What is more important to the wine connoisseur? A cupboard full of glasses or a cellar full of wine?

Pessimists are ostracized because in this case they describe the glass as half full rather than half empty. Optimists would never fill a wine glass half full. The modern way to optimally enjoy the intense taste of wine lies in the small quantities. The wine in the glass should be presented optimally.

Through intense collaboration with professional glass designers and the renowned wine critic René Gabriel the unique GABRIEL-GLAS© was born; medium-sized, elegant and affordable. Where expert glass creation meets the knowledgeable connoisseur

The largest width of 95 millimeters allows a certain instant decanting effect by giving a lot of air to the wine just poured. The upper part of the goblet, discreetly conically curved inward, is the extension of the nose channels. The selected glass opening (exactly 66 millimeters) optimally concentrates the bouquet and aromas. The lower part of the goblet, a V-shape curved outward, offers a kind of “push-up”, which means that even with a small amount of wine, quite a lot of fragrance is absorbed. The V-triangle, at the very bottom of the glass goblet, favors maximum color density. The wine flows very broadly over the tongue while drinking. The glass stem (a barely perceptible X shape) allows elegant holding with all five fingers.

What is the difference between the Gabriel Glas Gold Edition and the Gabriel Glas StandArt? The answer is quite simple: The difference amounts to about 60 grams. The shape and the size are identical! And upon closer observation and especially at tastings there are some slight and also some more obvious differences! And last but not least there is a perceptible* difference in the feel of the Gabriel Glas Gold Edition.
