Description
Technical Specs
Although named a “Chardonnay” in the Bottega del Vino line, and primarily for whites, the BV05 also provides a fitting presentation for many Bordeaux and you should feel comfortable using it for this purpose. Also, for those customers who desire one glass, for reds and white wines, the BV05 Chardonnay is recommended. Capacity: 23⅜ oz.
If the wine matters, so does the glass™ - it’s that simple. Tasting after tasting, test after test, time after time, wine enthusiasts are amazed by the difference the glass makes. Inspired by a life in wine and created by Severino Barzan, Bottega del Vino Crystal wine glasses are first and foremost, wine-driven in design and creation. Each piece is painstakingly mouth blown and hand finished to the highest world standards for balance, weight, shape and the tactile pleasure of holding the stem and drinking from it. Each piece features a superbly crafted bowl with single pull stem for the best possible feel in hand and mouth. Our crystal is unique in the world because it is NOT fragile, indeed it is suitable for restaurant use, yet it offers the finest presentation available for your wines both in appearance and taste. Bottega del Vino offers no machine made products. There is only one quality level – the best we can make by hand. Bottega del Vino crystal provides the perfect balance between tactile pleasure and everyday practicality, unmatched by any other stem!
Features
Difference between Lead Crystal and Bottega del Vino Crystal
Lead Crystal
The type of glass produced when lime in the batch is replaced by lead oxide. The composition of lead crystal is 54-65% silicon dioxide (SiO2), 18-38% lead oxide (PbO), 13-15% soda (Na2O) or potash (K2O), and other oxides. Such glass has a high refractive index and is particularly suited for decoration by cutting.
Barium Oxide
Barium oxide derived from BaCO3 (witherite) is used principally in optical and crystal glass instead of lime or red lead. Glass which contains barium is lighter than lead crystal but gives comparable brilliance due to its high refractive index.
This proprietary Crystal formulation ensures that your stems are a miracle of lightness and balance, yet they are NOT fragile. The safest way to wash them is in the dishwasher.
