Incredibly graceful, especially for their volume, the glasses in this Legnoart Graal wine tasting set are crafted according to strict sommelier standards. They are made in Italy from beautifully clear, exceptionally light mouth-blown crystal and are suited for red, white, and sparkling wines. The red wine glass--with the rounded bowl--stands 10-1/4 inches high. Its bowl is 5-1/2 inches deep. The tulip-shaped glass--intended for white wines--stands 9-3/4 inches high. It measures 4-1/4 inches from the base of the bowl to the beautiful rim. The conical glass, ideal for champagne or prosecco, stands 11 inches tall, measuring 8 inches from lip to bowl base. Legnoart crafts the glasses for maximum appreciation of wine, while remaining committed to manufacturing techniques and artful aesthetics. This threesome arrives in a wooden box with supportive foam inserts--it makes a perfect gift giving container and storage case.
