Gabriel-Glas: The Gold + Standard

Gabriel-Glas

The Gold + Standard

Gabriel-Glas is the world’s best universal wine glass, recommended by the Michelin Guide, Forbes, The New York Times, Vogue, Wine Folly, Club Oenologique and a host of local wine bars, restaurants, wineries and private customers. Shape matters, and the famous ‘one for all’ design allows you to switch effortlessly from your favourite Grower Champagne to still wines, and maybe a Vermouth or Cape Fine Brandy to finish the day.

Great glassware makes your wine taste better. In preparation for the holidays, stock up on your favourite Gabriel-Glas in 2-or 6-packs before the price increases in the new year. The Gabriel Golds are the ultimate in sophistication, with a paper-thin crystal bowl and stem and ‘helium lightness’ (Club Oenologique). Mouthblown and handmade, it takes two artisans about 10 minutes to create each glass. ‘Very, very nice’, says Club Oenologique.

With impressive durability, the Gabriel Standards are perfect for everyday use. It’s the ‘Swiss army knife glass’ that can be used for almost any wine. They also passed The New York Times’ drop tests without a crack and are dishwasher safe! Crafted from one single piece of crystal, the glass is seamless – just like the drinking experience.

Apart from being ‘a beautiful object’, the Gabriel-Glas ‘performed well with all the wines tasted, including the aged red, which other glasses struggled with’, notes The New York Times

With more glass options than wine regions around the world, the ‘one for all’ Gabriel-Glas – designed by renowned Swiss wine critic, René Gabriel – saves shelf space and money, allowing wine lovers to spend more on their wine collections.

DON'T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT

‘Elegant shape, excellent performance. It performed just as well as competitors twice the price and doesn’t feel so delicate that you’ll only opt to use it from time to time.’The New York Times

‘The perfect shape seems to be the slightly ‘plumped’ bowl of the Gabriel.’Club Oenologique

‘You’ll be able to notice the difference in how it makes your wines sing no matter the style of wine you pour in it. Wines are lifted and more expressive.’Vogue

‘It delivers flavours in a sequential manner. This trait makes Gabriel-Glas fantastic for blind tasting and for improving your palate. The fruit delivery was equal to Zalto, but more fresh in style.’Madeline Puckette, Wine Folly

‘Convenience matters. Satisfyingly graceful and easy to reach for.’Forbes

‘It is elegant, durable and has a modern shape. Everything I put in it, from Champagne to Bordeaux, shows beautifully. I now use them as my house glass.’Melissa L. Smith, Sommelier and Founder, Enotrias

‘It’s pretty close to the ideal Swiss army knife glass in that you can use it for pretty much any wine and it costs about half of most top-end stemware.’Matt Crafton, Château Montelena
