Happy Berserker… er… VinDependece Day! 
So, this was originally going to go live Berserker Day 17, but…
Launching BURGUNDY + WHITE/CHAMPAGNE Glasses
$47 for Hand-made European Titanium Crystal
*the Burgundy & Champagne designs are 95% complete and will look slightly different
**ie: the Burgundy glass on the far left will have a shorter stem
Designed in collaboration with internationally renowned wineries like Dujac and Vilmart in France to Occidental and Stony Hill in California, both glasses deliver exceptional proven performance.
We applied the same rigorous research and testing process that was used for our Universal shape to great results. I promise these are so much more than just pretty shapes - they treat wines with respect and amplify their best aromatic and gustatory qualities.
These (and a forthcoming fortified/dessert glass) complete the Fontaine wine glass collection.
I’m so proud and excited to share these luxurious European glasses with you.

The Resonance AKA the Burgundy glass
First off, this is so much more than just a Burgundy glass. It’s especially for Barolo. It’s for shy and reserved wines that need air to relax and blossom. It’s for big burly wines that need a lot of air to make tannins velvety and silky.
The Resonance glass makes those types of wines, for lack of a better description, “taste more expensive.” A bit simplistic I know, but those exact words were repeated by almost every glassware tester unprompted. Compared to the Universal glass that brings out youthful characteristics in both aromatics and grippier tannins, this glass highlights nuanced aromatics and delivers an exceptionally polished tannin experience.
The most notable difference to me is the palate experience. The textural quality, straight out of the bottle, zero decanting, no aerator, just pour and sip is astounding.

August Prototype Update: The final glass will have a shorter stem and the bowl a bit taller.
The Precision AKA the White / Champagne glass
This is a glass for still and sparkling white wines, especially those that lean towards more mineral and fresh fruit notes and less barrel influence. When you’re looking to concentrate, but not suffocate, the linearity and acidity of white wines.
The Precision glass proves that crisp wines should not be overlooked for any perceived lack of complexity. It’s a little hard to describe, but I would say this glass adds width and power to wines. There is enough space in the glass that aromatics can breathe, but not so much that their delicate notes are lost or muted. For sparkling wines, the perlage is lively with medium size bubbles that are refined but still textural, and last long after the pour.

Two other products!
1. The Spirits Glass v2 - Our whisky glass got a mild elegant glowup. The stem is just a bit taller and the shape is slightly more similar now to the wine stems. The aromatic and tasting performance is as good as ever, but I think the aesthetics are slightly more refined. This glass will also be 20% off!
2. Wine Glass Travel Cases - They’re not for sale yet, but anyone who purchases the new glassware will receive a special discount. It’s modular, fairly compact, with premium materials, and is just freaking awesome.
