For Malin, the collaboration with the sommeliers meant that some of her conceptions about wine changed. For example, that champagne or other sparkling wine should always be enjoyed from tall flute glasses with plenty of room for the bubbles. “It’s true about younger wines, but we learned that an older champagne is more aromatic, and can therefore be served in a wine glass with a larger bowl to develop its full potential”, says Malin and adds: "In the world of wine, there’s always something to learn."
A crystalline glass with a smaller bowl that keeps light, fresh white wines crisp and cool. Elegant to hold and a perfect match to other glassware in the STORSINT series.

Product details
A crystalline glass in just the right size for light and refreshingly crisp white wines.
The smaller bowl helps maintain the wine’s fresh acidity and subtle aromas while feeling refined to hold.
Light, fresh white wines like Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling or rosé are a great fit, as the smaller volume helps keep them cooler for longer.
This glass looks like it’s made with traditional crystal, but it’s made with crystalline ― a strong alternative with a clear brilliance and a fine tone when you clink your glasses.
Manufactured in a way similar to handmade glasses, which means that the stem of the glass is smooth and has no seam.
Dishwasher-safe makes life easier.
In the STORSINT series there is glassware for all types of drinks, so you can easily match glasses when setting the table.

Nice wine glassesAnonymous reviewerPractical wine glass and looks good too
Really good quality classic shaped glassesAnonymous reviewerReally good classic shaped glasses.
Bought selection of variants - the two large different shaped reds and the large and small white wine glasses, also water glasses - which look small but hold a perfectly acceptable 1/3 litre
Having bought fancy wine glasses (Riedel etc) in the past - i decided to buy IKEA Storsint at fraction of the cost. They have all the elements of much more expensive glasses - what’s not to like!
Excellent value for moneyAnonymous reviewerI needed some everyday wine glasses and these represented perfectly adequate glasses at a really good price

Story
Match your wine with the right glass
Did you know that there is a whole science behind why wine glasses look the way they do? Fortunately, you don’t need to dive into the science to match your favourite wine with the right glass. We developed the STORSINT glass series so you have optimal glasses for different wines. But first we needed to thoroughly understand what happens to a wine when it’s poured into a glass with a certain shape – so we took on the help of some experienced sommeliers along the way. Product developer Malin Ljungström shares some facts: “For example, a younger wine should be served in a smaller bowl with a slightly narrower opening. This is so the wine is not affected too much by the oxygen in the air", explains Malin."On the other hand, an older and fuller wine needs a large, round bowl and a relatively wide opening to enhance all the aromas and flavours from the wine being more in contact with oxygen."
How a wine is enjoyed when drinking from a wine glass is also about the balance between the bowl, shaft and foot. “A good wine glass should be nice to hold and beautiful to look at”, says Malin.

"When I designed STORSINT, I wanted to make glassware that enhances the enjoyment of drinks. I made the stems thin and smooth so that they're comfortable to hold, and the bowl generous so that aromas and and flavours develop in the best way. I was partially inspired by the fantastic glassware at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. With STORSINT, I wanted to create glassware which suits all occasions, which is beautifully designed – and can be used year after year."
