Josephine N° 2 – Universal Single Glass
This is a really nice glass, but you need to wash it carefully. I managed to break one for my own stupidity by putting hand too deep while cleaning.

JOSEPHINE No 2 – Universal Set of 2
These are great glasses, but extremely fragile. I have now broken two glasses already after using them for 5 times. Both glasses broke exactly the same way while drying them with cloth after washing. So, be extremely careful while washing. Other than that they are great.

JOSEPHINE No 2 – Universal Set of 2
The quality is exceptional. Everyone who uses one remarks on how much they love them. I doubt they have any idea theyre hand made, but the quality is obvious to anyone who uses one. I'd like to try the water glasses someday.

Care Tips

The Josephine ist dishwasher safe.

To ensure long-lasting enjoyment, we recommend hand washing and using a soft linen cloth to polish your glasses.

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.

Tasting Tips

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.

Sensory excellence

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

The Josephine is a purely handcrafted and mouth-blown glass that stands out for its sensory qualities. Thanks to its distinctive kink, the wine absorbs more oxygen and reveals its full range of nuances. The extremely thin-walled, flexible glass feels light and balanced in the hand, delivering the wine’s aromas to the nose and palate with the finest subtleties.

Traditional craftsmanship

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.

Award‑winning design

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

The soul of the Josephine is a visionary artist: Kurt Josef Zalto, a sixth-generation glass designer with a deep-rooted passion for craftsmanship. His mission: to create a glass that not only impresses with its aesthetics but also elevates the enjoyment of wine to a new level.

Every detail reflects the experience, dedication, and creative power of Kurt Josef Zalto. Stripped down to the essentials, the Josephine combines design, function, and craftsmanship at the highest level — earning multiple international awards.

“Exciting, different, generous. An outstanding glass that perfectly highlights the subtle aromas and finesse of our wines.”

Markus Molitor, Exceptional wine maker, Germany
