The120 degree angle of the glass is particularly designed to bring out the flavours (primary, fruits, flowers…) contained in a young red wine.

Les Impitoyables N° 2

Subtle and reserved, a great classical white wine does not release its nature easily. To fully appreciate its quality, its flavours must emerge gently, circulate freely, but remain a long time inside of a glass. The peculiar shape of this tasting glass is designed to control the circulation of the secondary and tertiary aromas; the long and fine stem preserves the temperature of the wine, by avoiding any contact with the hand of the taster. Made of crystal and 9,8inches tall.

Les Impitoyables N° 4

We tend to forget that champagne is also wine and needs to be aerated: bubble spouts stimulate such aeration.
The inside of this tasting glass is covered with a molding “grain of barley” (procedure invented at the 18^th century) which indicates acidity or maturity of your champagne. The cone located at the base between the bowl and stem enhances the forming of the bubbles and allows their easy release to the top.
Made of crystal and 8,6inches tall
