In the fascinating world of wine tasting, every sip is a unique sensory exploration. At Chef&Sommelier, we firmly believe that wine tasting is much more than a simple taste experience. It’s a journey that engages all of our senses, and we’re proud to provide wine professionals with the perfect tools for this adventure and The Ultimate Sensory Experience. Focus on the Senses: A Complete Tasting Experience Sight Wine tasting begins with sight. The colour, clarity and viscosity of wine can reveal a great deal about its age, body and tannin levels. Our Séquence collection, made from Krysta, highlights these visual characteristics. Their transparency and elegant shape allow the wine’s colour to be fully appreciated, offering a first glimpse of its qualities. Sequence Collection The sense of smell The sense of smell plays a crucial role in wine tasting. The wine’s aromas can reveal its origins, grape variety and winemaking methods. Our Open’up glasses, with their angles modelled on the curves of stemmed glasses, make it easier to serve wines by the glass, while their accelerated decanting effect opens up the aromas, providing a rich and nuanced olfactory experience. Open’Up Collection Taste Taste is the central element of wine tasting. The flavours of the wine, whether fruity, spicy, woody or earthy, can be fully appreciated thanks to the shape and quality of the glass. Exaltation, with its unique lily shape and bubbling system, is the perfect tool for creating a new wine-tasting experience. The even more generous gob, the narrower rim and the upward pointing top of the glass ensure that the wine is properly oxygenated and that the fruity and floral aromas are better concentrated and expressed. The touch Touch is often overlooked in wine tasting, but it plays an important role. The texture of the wine in the mouth, or ‘body’, can reveal its alcohol, tannin and acid content. Reveal’Up makes it easier to serve wine precisely by the glass, with a natural gauge appearing at the break in the goblet of the 6 stemmed glasses and flute. The Intense stemmed glasses are ideal for tasting young and mature red wines, while the Soft stemmed glasses are ideal for bringing out the finesse and sweetness of fruity white and/or red wines. Reveal’Up Collection The ear Finally, hearing can also contribute to the tasting experience. The sound of the wine being poured into the glass can indicate its level of effervescence. Our wine glasses made from Krysta give a clear, pure sound when serving. At Chef&Sommelier, we’re more than just a brand of glasses. It’s a trusted partner for wine professionals looking to offer their customers an unforgettable tasting experience. Trust Chef&Sommelier to take your wine service to the highest level, with a focus on a complete and rewarding sensory experience.
