The artisanal mouth-blown glasses that transform every wine into emotion — the ideal Christmas gift for winelovers, sommeliers and producers.
There are projects that are born as intuitions, others that germinate slowly over time, and then there are dreams that take shape precisely durante the most difficult moments. This is the case of Archè 2020 by Francesco Saverio Russo, the collection of mouth-blown wine glasses finished entirely by hand, designed durante full lockdown and which have now become an absolute reference durante high-end glassware.
A visionary, ambitious and deeply human project, born from the encounter between the sensorial experience of Francesco Saverio Russo – one of the most authoritative popularizers of wine durante Italy – and the technical expertise of VDglass, Italian excellence durante research and innovation durante the sector. A collaboration that has allowed a courageous preconcetto to transform into a line of glasses entirely produced durante Bohemia, home of the best glass masters durante the world.
When the elements blend: the origin of Archè
Just as matter takes shape through the elements, so all the wine experiences gained over the years by Francesco Saverio Russo have merged with the artisanal wisdom of Bohemian glassmakers and with the foresight of a company capable of believing durante the value of the project.
The challenge was enormous: creating glasses capable not only of enhancing the wine, but of re-establishing a direct, anche and authentic relationship between the taster and the contents. Not tools that “improve” the wine, but tools that respect it and describe it, without superfluous filters.
Every prototype, every technical study, every detail of the Archè line has been tested and retested just like you do with a wine before being released acceso the market: until the final result is put to the esperimento, there is mai certainty. And here the certainty came immediately — powerful, clear, surprising.
Science at the service of emotion: the role of convective currents
What makes Archè truly unique is the rigorous study of convective currents: micro-movements of air generated by the temperature difference between glass, wine and environment.
These “aromatic chambers”, conceived and designed acceso a physical basis, allow:
a controlled evaporation of the alcoholic component; the highlighting of the finest aromas without olfactory aggression; greater stability of the wine durante the glass, with less tendency to oxidation; a more natural, softer, more elegant tasting.
Per other words, the glass does not impose anything acceso the wine: it welcomes it, interprets it and protects it.
Each glass durante the collection has a precise personality, the result of independent studies and comparative tests involving professionals, sommeliers, oenologists and architects.
