Schott Zwiesel Congresso Stemless Glasses

Tritan crystal is a patented glass composition that replaces lead with zirconium and titanium. This makes the glass significantly more resistant to breakage, chipping, and scratching compared to traditional glassware.

The 18.6 oz capacity and wide bowl make these excellent for red wine, as they provide enough surface area for the wine to breathe. However, their versatile shape also makes them perfectly suited for water, cocktails, or iced tea.

Yes, their stemless design makes them much easier to load into a dishwasher than traditional stemmed wine glasses. At 5 inches tall, they should fit on most standard top or bottom racks without issue.

While Schott Zwiesel maintains rigorous quality control, hand-blown glassware can occasionally feature very subtle variations in thickness or weight. These minor characteristics are a hallmark of the artisanal process and do not affect the durability of the crystal.

The stemless design provides a low center of gravity, making them much more stable and less prone to tipping over than stemmed glassware. They are a practical choice for crowded dinner parties or casual outdoor settings.
