Zalto Denk'Art Stemware:                                                                            

North American Expert Opinion                                              

 

"The result is a glass so light that it takes you aback when you hoist it, with an impressively thin rim. In some initial tryouts, the Bordeaux model showed off Cabernet remarkably well and the Champagne flute's bulging midsection brought several bubblies to life...Their featherweight nature and distinct angular design give the Denk'Art glasses the perfect distinct presence for a mod dinner party."  Jon Bonné, San Francisco Chronicle Staff Writer,             Friday, April 4, 2008; Page F - 2

 

"Zalto Wine Glasses...life is too short to drink bad wine, it is also too short to drink good wine from bad glasses".  Deidre Woollard at Luxist.com, January 3, 2008

 

"We recently discovered Zalto Denk'Art glassware from Austria, whose elegant, eye-catching design first piqued our interest and whose dishwasher-safe performance won us over.  These glasses allow us to swirl and view appealing whites and inhale the bold aromas of reds. If we use them every weekday for a year, we'll have upgraded every sip of wine we drink for just a few dimes a day".  Karen Page and Andrew Dornenburg
from the The Washington Post, Wednesday, January 2, 2008; Page F05

 

" I choose it as my favorite because I tend to lean more on the palate than nose and this glass shows the best on the palate than any other glass I have come across."  I am now a Zalto fan and would encourage you to try them if you get the chance. I choose it as my favorite because I tend to lean more on the palate than nose and this glass shows the best on the palate than any other glass I have come across."  I am now a Zalto fan and would encourage you to try them if you get the chance. The glasses really are that good. I don’t know how the rest of the glass series performs, but if they are anything like the Champagne glass then this is a glass line to be reckoned with.  Brad Baker -- Champagne Warrior at Mark Squires' Bulletin Board on eRobertParker.com, December 10, 2007

"The thin glass showed the color beautifully and the shape enhanced the aroma. Even better, I found they are dishwasher safe and resist clouding.
If you love wine, Zalto offers a stylish and modern alternative to fine stemware currently on the market".  A Wine Story...Marisa D'Vari, CSW, December 2, 2007

 

European Expert Opinion

 

THE LUMINARIES OF AUSTRIAN AND INTERNATIONAL WINE CULTURE ARE PERSUADED BY ZALTO DENK`ART:

“The Denk`Art glass is fleet-footed, very elastic and despite the almost delicate working, surprisingly break-proof. Furthermore, it makes a great visual impact, is contemporary and all features considered superior to all other glasses.” Heinz Reitbauer, patron of the “Chef’s Hat-crowned” restaurants “Steirereck” and “Pogusch”

 

“The glass is the repository for the content. Water, wine, sparkling wine and beer are processed to an unsurpassable indulgence by the new Denk`Art series.” Toni Mörwald, chef and licencee of the “Chef’s Hat-crowned” restaurants “Ambassador”, “Kloster Und ” and “Zur Taube”

 

“Great wines develop even better in the new Denk`Art glass – a great enrichment for the entire glass- and wine-world!“ Franz Hirtzberger, chairman of “Vinea Wachau“

 

“I didn’t think, that there would be anything better on the glass-market … this glass is. Moreover it has something erotic …” Francois Mauss, president of the “Grand Jury European”

 

“For us the burgundy-glass by Hans Denk –Denk`Art- is the most ingenious glass for Grüner Veltliner. Especially for more mature, particularly premium and concentrated `Smaragd`-wines. For the wine it creates an enamel, profound fruit and elegance in implausible extent. We are enthusiastic.” Rudolphine and F.X.Pichler, winemakers from the Wachau.
