More care tips

The Josephine N° 2, a true universal genie, excels with a wide variety of wines.

Everybody’s Darling! From Pinot Blanc and Viognier to Sangiovese and Tempranillo—this glass is both functional and refined, highlighting even the most subtle notes and the nuances of more complex wines. Even aged red wines, which should not be exposed to too much oxygen, as well as premium vintage Champagnes, reveal their full potential in the Josephine N° 2.

We recommend the Josephine N° 2 for

Medium to highly complex white wines with less pronounced fruit and more terroir driven character as well as highend sweet wines and more complex lighter redwines.

Influence on wine styles

Unoaked (fruit driven) white wines: Shows precision and slightly reduced fruit expression.

Unoaked white (terroir driven) wines: Shows great energy, finesse and balance (e.g. for premium Rieslings, Grüner Veltliners, Pinot Blancs, Chenin and Sauvignon Blancs, from Loire region, or premium Aligotés and Chablis).

Oaked white wines: Pronounces freshness and balance (in comparison to N° 1) and shows more livelyness, but less complexity than N° 3.

Sparkling wines: Enhances the “wine-like-character” and complexity of premium traditional method sparkling wines (more pronounced tertiary aromas than N° 4).

Lighter red wines: Shows great balance between fresh, fruit forward aromas, spice notes and a juicy texture.

Heavier (oaked) and/or more complex red wines: Shows them in a more dynamic, but less complex way than N° 3 (mostly less adstringent).

Sweet wines: Shows them in a more balanced and harmonious way then N° 1.

The Shape of Taste

Aroma chamber

The more voluminous, gently rising aroma chamber fosters a beautifully balanced and elegantly nuanced aromatic expression of the wine.

Experience glasses that uniquely enhance the taste and aromas of wine.

The Josephine is a purely handcrafted and mouth-blown glass that stands out sensorially. Its form and function are one. Thanks to its distinctive kink, the wine absorbs more oxygen, revealing its full spectrum of flavors. The ultra-thin, flexible glass accentuates the finest nuances of aroma. When experienced sommeliers and renowned winemakers rediscover their wines in this way, they experience the Josephine moment. Can a glass do more for enjoyment?

Each Josephine glass is a mouth-blown and handcrafted unique piece.

The Josephine Collection, produced in the finest glassworks of Europe, is fundamentally different from machine-made glasses. It represents the fusion of traditional glassmaking craftsmanship and innovative design. Each glass is mouth-blown and crafted through a series of meticulous steps that demand extensive experience, skill, and the utmost concentration from master glassmakers. With great attention to detail, this process creates delicate yet durable glasses—designed for an unparalleled wine experience.

Designed by Kurt Josef Zalto, 6th-generation glass designer.

Kurt Josef Zalto was born with a deep fascination for glass. Coming from a long lineage of glassmakers spanning six generations, his passion goes far beyond a love for traditional craftsmanship. As a designer, his mission is the pursuit of the perfect form—inspired by nature. Over 20 years ago, he created a glass that was revolutionary at the time.

The Josephine is his masterpiece—a glass that distills form to its essence while elevating function to an art. “This glass embodies all the passion and experience of my life,” says Zalto. He breathed soul into the Josephine.
