2 New Wine Adventures: Texas Wine Country and Our New STARlight Collection

7/25/2022

 
Picture
We’re always looking for new adventures when it comes to wine regions and based upon an online story about the Texas Hill Country wine region, we’ve added the Lone Star State as to our list of “must-trys”.
​
According to author Kevin Gray in his recent Inside Hook story, “….most of the region’s grape varietals today hail from France, Italy and Spain, with popular wines including Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Mourvèdre and Viognier.” Add to that a growing list of wineries, some great food and an outstanding music scene – we are ready to head out on a new wine adventure.

If you’re ready to add to your wine adventures, you might want to take a look at our newest collection of wine glassware collection that we call STARlight.

 STARlight offers a new dimension: machine glass that blurs the line to mouth-blown glass. The gracefully slender stem and the delicately thin-walled goblet were previously reserved for glasses made by hand. STARlight, born at the intersection of balance and functionality feels good in the hand and even better to enjoy wine from. Our many years of experience went into every aspect of creating our new STARlight Collection.

The result: The stem has a diameter that is about ten percent smaller than that of conventional machine-made glasses and the goblet also has a noticeably thinner wall thickness. In this way the STARlight series combines lightness with extraordinary elegance. We love STARlight because it makes even "average" wines taste way better than they should.

All this adds up to an improved wine-drinking experience all the way around. So, the next time you’re looking to expand your wine horizons and don’t quite have time to head down Texas way, find your way to our new STARlight Collection of wine glasses. We think you will be glad you did.

More smiles on more faces.

And, The Survey Says: High-Performance Wine Glasses Made in Germany are the Clear Winners

6/6/2022

 
Picture
Passionate wine drinkers have never been known to be shy about offering up their opinions on nearly any topic. This includes those topics that are both well-known and those that might be considered a bit obscure. This axiom is especially true when it comes to areas related to wine and the wine industry.
Picture
Our STARlight collection is exactly the type of wine glass that 93.8% of wine consumers prefer, according to our recent survey
For instance, a not long ago editorial by Wine Spectator’s News Editor Mitch Frank referenced a study from the research firm Wine Intelligence that surveyed wine consumers opinions on wine packaging. The survey in nine top wine-consuming countries and the results showed that “55% believe that glass bottles are a sustainable form of wine packaging, but just 35% thought the same of bag-in-a box wine, even though it requires much less fuel to transport.”

Well that got us to thinking about taking our own survey. Not as scientific perhaps as one done by a high-end, top notch market research organization such as Wine Intelligence, but just as accurate (at least we think it is). At a gathering over the weekend, we surveyed 16 people about their choice of wine glass, asking the question “Which would you prefer to drink your wine from - a beautiful, high-performance, German-made wine glass or a foldable, toss-away paper cup?”
And, folks, let us tell you - the results are in and they are overwhelming! 93.8% (yes, there was 1 contrarian in the study group!) of the people we surveyed would much rather enjoy their wine from a beautiful, high-performance wine glass made in Germany.

So, that settles it. Cheers!

Your Wine Glass: What Matters to Us

4/22/2022

 
Picture
Recently, we came across an online article “Yes, There Is a Right Way to Hold a Wine Glass”. Rather than get caught up in a “right way” versus a “wrong way” glass-holding discussion, let us first say that we are simply happy to know that you are enjoying your wine.

Now, of course, we realize that there are high-end wine snobs who may look askance at us when we might place our hands around the bowl instead of the stem. But unless the wines you are drinking are so special and so delicate that the few degrees difference (if even that amount) from warmth of your hand may bring to the wine will dramatically alter its taste, we will continue to let others focus on how to hold the glass. That may happen, but its not what we spend our time or our energies worrying about.

So, what does matter to us when it comes to your wine glass?
Helping each wine, no matter the price point, no matter the wine type, achieve its stated tasteful purpose for you and your guests has always been our main goal at Stölzle.

​So, go ahead and hold your glass however you like. But, always enjoy the wine.

After all, for more than 130 years now, we have always put our attention towards making sure our glasses perform to their peak and deliver the proper flavor profile that you and your guests are looking for. Maximizing the enjoyment and the experience is what it's all about.

More smile on more faces.

Rum: Serving Up Unique Flavor Profile Experiences In The Proper Glass

4/15/2022

 
Picture
Our 1540031T 7 oz. Rum Tasting Glass is a great way to show your rum the respect that it deserves.
The world of rum is a wide-ranging and fascinating story with such a diversity of flavor profiles there must be a rum for nearly everyone’s tastes. From Puerto Rico to Jamaica, from Venezuela to Demera in Guyana, rums are geographically – and especially, flavor-wise very diverse. Rums are also produced around the globe in other sugar-producing regions such as The Philippines and Taiwan.

In fact, rum’s greatest strength is perhaps its versatility, and diversity, with product types that range from white rum and black rum to dark rum, proof+ rum, along with spiced and flavored rums. There’s even rhum agricole. Each rum type and flavor unique to itself with curious millennials leading the way in exploring each flavor and nuance.
And, accordingly, led by premium, super-premium and above segments, rum consumption is on the rise, expected grow to more than 7% to approximately $16.7B in U.S. sales in 2022. Rum drinkers are more educated, more curious and more particular about the rums that they choose to drink, often trading up to higher-priced options, including aged rums. Therefore, it only stands to reason that these same higher-end rum drinkers are wanting to maximize their rum-drinking experience, much like whisky drinkers have done.

That’s why we have created our 1540031T Rum Tasting Glass. This 7 oz., 7 inch tall beauty is designed to bring out all the nuanced flavors that are distinctive about your guest’s favorite rum. In addition, our Rum Tasting Glass is equally sophisticated in its design and it’s approachability so it will fit well as a favorite dessert glass in Michelin-starred restaurants and be just as at-home on your back patio.

​So, the next time you are suggesting a premium rum to your guest, make sure you #respectyourrum and serve it up properly in our 7 oz. Rum Tasting Glass. Your guests will notice the difference.

Whites or Reds: Keep Those Smiles Coming with Our EXPERIENCE Collection

3/26/2022

 
Picture
Nothing beats a crisp, refreshing white wine, especially as the temperatures climb as the seasons change. But – just being honest – our heart belongs to reds. And reds of all types. And we realize that many out there feel exactly the same way about their whites. We get it.
​
That’s why the recent article by the online site Drizly caught our attention: 5 Red Wines for White Wine Drinkers. In case you’re not familiar with Drizly, besides being a favorite of ours, they are the largest online marketplace for alcohol in North America. On the Drizly website it states that their “purpose is to be there when it matters – committed to life's moments and the people who create them. We partner with thousands of retailers in more than 1,400 cities to empower them to grow their businesses and make our customers' good times better. Drizly is available to 100M+ customers and counting across the U.S. and Canada.”

Back to the topic at-hand, “red wines for white wine drinkers” our thoughts are “Why should someone have to choose? Why not enjoy both?
​And, what is the right glass for maximizing those good times and creating those all-important smiles? Our EXPERIENCE collection began as a glass that was originally developed as the perfect glass for white wines, developed together with sommeliers to be the perfect glass for white wines, particularly for different Riesling wines.

However, the design, functionality and overall performance of the glass proved to be so excellent that many people didn’t want to waive the special experience with other types of wine – and the EXPERIENCE collection of wine glasses was born.
Picture
So, if you happen to be one of those die-hard white wine lovers, we completely understand. But, if you read the Drizly article and decide you might want to try a red wine once in a while (or maybe serve them to your guests) consider our EXPERIENCE collection as a glass that will bring out the best in whichever wine you are serving.

More smiles on more faces.
