Eisch glasses are as functional as they are beautiful, thanks to over 300 years of experience in glassmaking. Over the past 5 decades, wine glass development was focused on finding the ideal shape that brings out grape varietal characteristics.
This has resulted in great success and has given wine enthusiasts a wide variety of glass shapes and sizes to enjoy quality wines. Though this focus did not always take into account the different terroir, clone variations, winemaking choices, youthful tannins, riper fruit, higher alcohol levels, early drinking and just released wines.
Wine poured into an Eisch ‘SensisPlus’ wine glass become; smoother, more rounded, more harmonious, more clarity and definition to any complexity, better integration of fruit and oak and simply taste more balanced in just minutes.
Through a completely natural process, the original typicity, character and structure of the wine is preserved, while its aroma and flavours become more expressive and generous. After six years of research and testing by their craftsman at Eisch, the ‘SensisPlus’ wine glass was created by changing the inside surface of the glass. At the end of the production process, the lead-free crystal wine glasses undergo an oxygenative process that actually changes the structure of the glass surface, allowing it to better aerate your wine.
The process results in a kind of dimpling effect *(like a golf-ball) on the inside surface of the bowl, which increases the surface tension of wine on the glass. Then with a gentle swirling motion this fully aerates the wine, sending more expressive aromatic compounds airborne - (this is the simple version).
Machine made in Germany, each glass is produced as a one piece glass. They are ‘Lead-Free Crystal’ with the ‘Pulled-Stem Technology’ for added strength. The process is not a coating or a chemical treatment; so the effect will not wash or wear off.
This new technology allows your wine to unfold and open up its bouquet and hidden flavours more easily. With the Eisch ‘SensisPlus’ wine glass you can dive even deeper into the world of aromas and flavours of wine - and also into each wines own story. From fruit driven and mineral notes to the spicy layers of oak and subtle vintage, vineyard nuances and winemaking choices will be shown. Each Eisch ‘SensisPlus’ wine glass has the Eisch ‘SENSISPlus’ Logo™ etched on the base for authenticity.
Get some friends together and a bottle of your favourite, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, even a young oaked Chardonnay or anything you can’t wait to open. Select the respective ‘SensisPlus’ glass for the wine style; and any standard shape and sized wine glass *(pour the same amount of wine into both). The ‘SensisPlus’ wine glass elevates the enjoyment of wine to a new level. I am confident you will smell and taste the difference, plus you will enjoy your wine more from an Eisch ‘SensisPlus’ glass.
