I have Zalto Burgundy, Bordeaux and Universal. All are topnotch glasses for connoisseurs. As the name suggests, I use Burgundy for Burgundian varietal wine, Nebbiolo and Etna Rosso. Bordeaux glass for serious Cab, CndP, Aussie Shiraz. Universal for whites in general but particularly Riesling, sparklings and Chenin Blanc, also lighter style reds of Sangiovese and Zinfandel. I also find Vintage Port and sweet wines do very good in Universal.

In short, Zalto all the way!

For those who own both Vinum and Zalto's, are the Zalto's worth the premium over the Vinum's? I've tried the Zalto on a number of occasions, while it felt more delicate and seems to be better blown (built?), I thought the difference was more in their shape itself.

I have Schott zweisel but this thread is making me want to buy some Zalto universals. Actually what I’m missing is some burgundy glasses...perhaps I should get those specifically
