Aida Ultima Bordeaux Glasses – Bringing Out the Wine's Full Character
Aida Ultima Bordeaux glasses are mouth-blown crystal glasses with a 70 cl capacity, specifically designed to highlight the taste and aromas of full-bodied red wines. This elegant set contains two glasses with an angular, gently tapering design that is both functional and aesthetically appealing. The glasses come in a beautifully designed gift box, perfect for gifting or as a refined addition to your own glass collection.
Ideal for serving Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, and other full-bodied red wines, where the shape of the glass helps to release the wine's complex aromas.
Outstanding Design and Craftsmanship
These Bordeaux glasses are part of the exclusive Ultima series, created in collaboration with the acclaimed designer Karim Rashid. The angular, modern design gives the glasses a timeless look that stands out on any well-laid table. Each glass is mouth-blown from lead-free crystal glass, delivering a light and elegant feel when held. This combination of craftsmanship and material choice ensures both first-class visual clarity and a durability that surpasses ordinary wine glasses.
Optimised for the Wine's Development
The shape of the glass is not only aesthetically pleasing but also carefully designed to maximise the wine experience. The gently tapering form concentrates the wine's bouquet and directs it towards the nose, intensifying the aroma experience. At the same time, the generous bowl gives the wine room to breathe and develop. The result is that the wine's complex flavour nuances come through more clearly, delivering a more complete tasting experience for both connoisseurs and newcomers alike.

Although the glasses are dishwasher safe, hand-washing is recommended to preserve their exclusive appearance and clarity for as long as possible.
