Why this wine glasse earns its place
The Chianti glass is the workhorse of wine service: larger, more forgiving than a flute, with a bowl that allows a full red wine to open and release its aromatics. The I Meravigliosi Chianti glass at 550ml delivers this with precision. It begins with SON.hyx lead-free crystal—the kind of clarity that lets a customer see the wine's colour before tasting it—then adds the engineering that makes it professional: ultra-thin rims (0.95mm) that feel weightless, titanium-reinforced stems that resist the everyday fractures that end cheaper stemware, and a flat base that sits confidently on any table or bar.
At 550ml, the capacity is the standard for red wine service: 150ml of wine with plenty of room for the glass to do its job. The bowl's flat base creates that unique decanting effect—the wine breathes and reveals its full character. The 227mm height and 92mm diameter mean these glasses stand proud on a table without taking up excessive space, and they stack into dishwashing racks without the tangle that plagues delicate stemware.
These glasses exist because restaurants and hotels need something that works. The titanium reinforcement in the stem isn't marketing: it's the molecular difference between a glass that fractures after two months of service and one that survives 4,000 dishwash cycles. For any venue serving wine by the glass—from casual neighbourhood restaurants to upscale dining—I Meravigliosi Chianti glasses are the professional choice: craft, durability, and clarity in every pour.
