Dartington Whether it's fine champagne or a less expensive style of bubbly, there's something special about enjoying a glass of sparkling wine. Although they associate 'Fizz' with special occasions, it is now enjoyed more often as a refreshing drink or as an accompaniment to many foods. To serve and savour a great drink requires a glass that's made for the job. To help you enjoy the best tasting experience they have created this special glass collection for every style of bubbly. Made from fine non-lead crystal, each shape provides a different tasting experience. The flute is the classic choice for most sparkling wines and champagnes. A tall tapering flute allows the contents to be displayed and admired. Visually it provides a true appreciation of the wine's colour and its lively effervescence. The narrow lip helps keep the thread of bubbles flowing but also stops them jumping up your nose when drinking. A long slender stem keeps the hand from warming the chilled wine and adds to the sensory pleasure of using this splendid glass. The Prosecco. One of the world's most voguish wines has for many become the preferred choice of champagne. Most prosecco drinkers don't realize there is a specific glass that will best express the special qualities of Prosecco. Compared to a classic flute the slightly shorter and more tulip-like shape allows more space for swirling and focusing the aromatic tones towards their nose. The Champagne coupe, also known as the Champagne saucer, has a shallow, broad bowl which has stormed back into fashion as the retro chic alternative to the classic flute. The shape favours sweeter styles of champagne but it can also be used for classic cocktails and as an eye-catching desert dish.
