Bormioli Rocco Riserva Wine Glasses

Yes, these glasses are dishwasher safe. While they feature a refined, thin rim, they are constructed from durable Star Glass designed to withstand regular cleaning cycles without losing clarity.

The bowl is engineered to balance the tannins and acidity typical of Cabernet Sauvignon. Its shape allows the wine to breathe properly, softening the tannins while directing the aromatics toward the nose for a more balanced tasting experience.

Star Glass is a proprietary, lead-free composition that mimics the brilliance and transparency of crystal. It offers exceptional clarity and a high refractive index, but without the fragility or environmental concerns associated with lead-based crystal.

With a 12.5-ounce capacity, these glasses are sized for a standard 5-ounce pour. This leaves ample room in the bowl for swirling and aeration, which is essential for opening up the complex notes of a red wine.

While specifically designed for Cabernet, the shape is versatile enough for many full-bodied red wines. You will find they perform well with other Bordeaux-style blends or even robust Merlots.
