If you are hosting this holiday season, you know that the little details make the biggest difference. And if there is one upgrade that delivers instant elegance with zero effort, it is beautiful glassware.
Meet the Journey Bordeaux Glasses from Fortessa / Zwiesel Glas; your new wine glass collection for a holiday table that feels warm, sophisticated, and inviting.
These 21.4 oz glasses look like they came straight from a fine-dining restaurant, yet they are durable enough for real life. Each stem features a striking linear pattern that honors 150 years of Zwiesel Glas craftsmanship, making them perfect for anyone who appreciates meaningful, well-made pieces.
The design is what you notice first: a tall, graceful silhouette with an elegant bowl that instantly elevates whatever you are pouring. The stem is sleek and architectural and has the kind of detail guests comment on before they even take a sip.
And then there is the sound. Zwiesel is known for the clear, resonant ring their crystal makes when you toast. They call it The Sound of Hospitality. It is crisp, celebratory, and unmistakably festive. It feels like the unofficial kickoff to the holidays in glass form.
Crafted from TRITAN Crystal Glass, these glasses offer the best of all worlds: restaurant-grade break resistance and dishwasher safe durability. They look delicate and high-end, but they are built to stand up to holiday hosting and everyday use.
Zwiesel Glas has been crafting crystal in the Bavarian Forest since 1872, and their pieces appear in some of the world’s finest restaurants and hotels. Bringing that level of quality to your own dining table instantly makes any gathering feel more special. Whether you are serving a bold Bordeaux, a smooth cabernet, or sparkling water for non-wine drinkers, these glasses make every sip feel elevated.
They also make an excellent holiday gift for newlyweds, new homeowners, hosts, or anyone who loves to entertain. Pair them with a favorite bottle of wine for a present that feels thoughtful and elegant.
If you are ready to upgrade your holiday hosting, add these to your cart now. Journey Bordeaux Glasses completely transformed my Thanksgiving table and I cannot wait for them to do the same this Christmas. Cheers to that.
