Luigi Bormioli Aero White Wine Glass is developed to enhance the wine’s aroma and flavour nuances through a special design that oxygenates the wine directly in the glass. The inner spiral in the glass’s shape helps to intensify the movement when the wine is swirled, which promotes oxygenation and opens the wine’s character in a short time.
The glass is part of Luigi Bormioli’s Accademia series, created for both wine enthusiasts and professionals. The series combines Italian design with technical precision to optimise the wine experience.
The material is a patented lead-free crystal glass that provides high clarity and strength. The stem is reinforced with titanium, which increases resistance to shocks and chips. The glass is dishwasher safe up to 55 °C, making it practical for everyday use.
With a height of 18.3 cm and a volume of 32.5 cl, the glass is suitable for serving white wine, where both aroma and taste are given optimal conditions.
