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."

Reviews
Very nice, but not particularly durableMichaelWe bought a bunch of these for our wedding, and they were great for that. We kept them to use at home and it's a good thing we had so many.
Unfortunately, we're not the most delicate people, and we've smashed at least a dozen of them over the past couple years. Beware, if you stack them, or put them in the sink with other things they can develop micro cracks that give way at the worst moments (ie while you're washing them. Finger crotch lacerations are a real pain. Ask my wife.)
We currently have a very small sink and hand-wash everything, so your situation may be more compatible than ours is. I just ordered a separate glass drying rack to try to make best possible use of our remaining glasses.
Nice (and cheap) glasses if you are able to take very good care of them, otherwise I'd suggest something thicker/stronger.
Storing GlassesCarolThese glasses are our favorites. Great size and shape. They tend to break easily but overall for the cost we just purchase more.

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 favorite 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 flavors 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 flavors 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."
