Product Overview

Stepping up your wine service is all about the details, and  this is one detail your customers will absolutely notice. We’re looking at a set of six exquisitely designed Schott Zwiesel large Bordeaux glasses, crafted for the discerning palate and  the demanding pace of a professional setting. With a generous 630ml bowl, they are built to let full-bodied red wines, like a classic Bordeaux or Cabernet Sauvignon, truly open up and  reveal their complex aromas and  flavours.

These aren't just for show, mind you. While they possess the dazzling clarity and  delicate feel of fine crystal, they are made from Schott Zwiesel’s patented Tritan® crystal glass. This means they are remarkably tough, standing up to the rigours of daily service, including commercial dishwashing, with impressive resistance to chips and  scratches. They are the ideal choice for fine dining restaurants, sophisticated wine bars, and  premium event caterers who refuse to compromise on either style or durability.

Ultimately, these glasses solve a common headache for any hospitality business: how to present wine beautifully without the constant cost and  hassle of replacing fragile glassware. The Schott Zwiesel GL139 wine glass offers the perfect blend of German-engineered resilience and  timeless elegance, ensuring every pour makes a statement and  your investment lasts. It’s a touch of class that’s built to endure.

Expert Review and  Insights

What I love about the Schott Zwiesel range is that they truly understand the commercial environment. This Bordeaux glass is a prime example; it has the wide bowl and  elegant stem you'd expect for serving premium reds, but the Tritan material is what makes it a smart buy. It’s a glass that impresses the guest without giving the pot wash team a heart attack.

  • The Upside: The chip-resistance is genuinely impressive for a glass this elegant.
  • A Consideration: Their height at 235mm means you'll need to check your glass rack clearance.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Oakley Grill, a bustling steakhouse in Canterbury, was constantly dealing with the high cost of replacing their delicate red wine glasses, which were prone to breaking during busy weekend services.

"We wanted the look of fine crystal to match the quality of our wine list, but the breakages were becoming a real financial drain. Switching to these Schott Zwiesel large Bordeaux glasses was the perfect solution. They look fantastic, our customers love them, and  our staff can handle them with confidence."

Robert Finch – General Manager

The switch resulted in a measured 70% reduction in glassware breakage costs within the first four months of use.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, carefully unpack and  inspect each glass for any signs of damage during transit.
  • Run all glasses through a wash cycle before their first use to remove any dust or residue.
  • Ensure your glass storage racks can accommodate the 235mm height to prevent chipping the rims.

Keeping It Going

  • When loading into a glasswasher, ensure glasses are not touching each other to prevent scratches.
  • Use a high-quality glasswashing detergent and  rinse aid to maintain clarity and  prevent spotting.
  • While dishwasher safe, hand polishing with a microfibre cloth will bring out their best sparkle.
  • Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals which can damage the surface over time.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Restaurant Wine Glasses

Not sure what fits your service best? Here’s a quick rundown on what to look for in commercial red wine glasses.

Bowl Shape & Size

A large, wide bowl, like the one on this Bordeaux glass, increases the wine's surface area, allowing it to interact with oxygen. This process, called aeration, softens tannins and  releases aromas, dramatically improving the taste of bold reds.

Material Matters

While traditional crystal is beautiful, it's notoriously fragile. A modern, reinforced material like Tritan® crystal gives you that same premium look and  feel but with the durability needed for a commercial environment, saving you money on replacements.

Stem Length

A long stem isn't just for looks; it allows the drinker to hold the glass without their hand warming the wine. However, ensure the stem height is practical for your dishwasher and  storage racks.

Rim Thickness

A fine, thin rim allows the wine to flow smoothly onto the tongue without obstruction, enhancing the tasting experience. Laser-cut rims, as found on these glasses, are a sign of high quality.

Capacity vs. Serving Size

A large 630ml glass isn't meant to be filled to the brim. It's designed to hold a standard 175ml or large 250ml serving, leaving plenty of room for swirling and  aeration. This 'headspace' is crucial for developing the wine's bouquet.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these glasses genuinely commercial dishwasher safe?

A: Yes, they are specifically designed with Schott Zwiesel's Tritan® technology to withstand the rigours of repeated commercial wash cycles without losing clarity or becoming brittle.

Q: What exactly is Tritan® Crystal Glass?

A: It's a patented, lead-free crystal glass that is fortified with titanium and  zirconium. This makes it significantly more durable and  chip-resistant than standard glassware while maintaining exceptional sparkle.

Q: How many glasses are in one pack?

A: These large crystal Bordeaux glasses are sold in a box of six, which is ideal for both starting a collection and  topping up your existing stock.

Q: With a 630ml capacity, what is the recommended serving size?

A: The large bowl is designed to aerate the wine. The recommended serving size is 175ml to 250ml, which allows plenty of space for the wine to breathe.

Q: Can I use these for white wine as well?

A: While designed for full-bodied reds, you can certainly use them for aromatic whites like a Chardonnay. However, specific white wine glasses typically have a smaller bowl to preserve cooler temperatures.

Q: Are the glasses heavy to hold?

A: No, despite their durability, they are crafted to be elegant and  well-balanced, providing a comfortable and  premium feel in the hand without being cumbersome.

Q: Are these glasses stackable for storage?

A: No, due to their shape and  fine construction, these glasses are not designed to be stacked. They should be stored upright in a glass rack or on a shelf.

Q: Is the glass lead-free?

A: Yes, all Schott Zwiesel Tritan® crystal glass is completely lead-free and  barium-free, making it a safe and  environmentally conscious choice.

What Customers Are Saying

"Absolutely brilliant glasses. They feel expensive, look the part and  are surprisingly tough. Been through our dishwasher countless times and  still look brand new."

David L – The Corner Bistro, Bristol

"A fantastic investment. We use these for our premium red wine flight. They really elevate the presentation. A couple of the stems were a bit taller than our old glasses, but we adjusted our storage easily enough."

Maria Evans – Hotel Manager, York

"As a small wine bar, every penny counts. These have saved us a fortune in replacements without compromising on quality. Our regulars have even commented on how nice they are to drink from."

Sam Jones – Proprietor, Leith

What Makes Tritan® Crystal a Cut Above the Rest?

Ever wonder what makes one 'crystal' glass shatter if you look at it funny, while another can handle a busy Saturday night service? The secret here is the 'Tritan®' part. It’s not just a fancy name; it’s a patented type of crystal glass developed by Schott Zwiesel that replaces the lead found in traditional crystal with titanium and  zirconium. Think of it like the difference between regular iron and  reinforced steel. You get all the best qualities of the original material—in this case, brilliant clarity and  a beautiful shine—but with added strength and  resilience built right in. This makes the glass far more resistant to chips, scratches, and  the thermal shock from a dishwasher, giving you long-lasting elegance without the fragility.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fine Dining Restaurants: Perfect for presenting your premium wine list and  enhancing the overall dining experience for your patrons.
  • Boutique Hotels & Wine Bars: Offer guests a touch of luxury with durable, high-quality glassware that complements a curated wine selection.
  • Event Caterers: Impress clients with elegant and  robust commercial red wine glasses that withstand transport and  frequent washing cycles.
  • Upscale Gastropubs: Elevate your table setting and  justify your premium wine offerings with glassware that looks and  feels the part.
