About Sydonios
Sydonios is founded by Antoine Schvart, a former wine broker, whose work involving tasting dozens of wines every day inspired him to explore the creation of a ‘different kind of glass’ - distinct from the already-established Austrian brands.
A year was spent in conducting intensive scientific research involving meeting more than 100 wine professionals as well as reviewing relevant literary papers. After consulting a panel comprising the most prominent wine makers in France, 2 glasses were eventually selected from 7 prototypes. These stringent procedures paved the way to deliver unprecedented tasting experiences with extreme finesse and oenological precision.
Each Sydonios glass is exquisitely mouth-blown in the Bohemian tradition, and meticulously measured to perfect proportions. The superior lead-free crystal offers light weight and enduring clarity. All Sydonios products are dishwasher safe, and are securely packaged in designer-made boxes with firm foam interior.
Sydonios glasses fall in two collection - The Racine and Terroir Collection.
The Racine Collection
The Racine Collection boasts unrivalled precision that results from science-driven research involving more than 100 fine wine experts, who were engaged in measuring
the impact of glass variation on the tasting experience. This collection features the 3 best performers out of the 7 prototypes that were created from initial research findings.
Caring for Sydonios Glasses
Dishwasher safe
All Sydonios glasses are dishwasher safe. Use a low temperature setting, wash glasses separately and avoid dishwasher tablets or liquids.
Handwashing
Leave the glasses to soak for a few minutes in dilute, warm soapy water or white vinegar. Do not use washing-up liquid. Avoid rapid temperature fluctuations between washing and rinsing.
Drying
We recommend hand-drying the glasses using a clean, dry tea-towel or microfibre cloth. Always hold the glasses by the bowl to avoid damaging the stems.
