Product Description
The Chef & Sommelier Open Up Pro Tasting glass is a 320ml wine glass with a distinctively angled bowl, designed to sit alongside a serious by-the-glass programme or tasting menu service. The angled profile directs wine across the palate in a specific way, softening acidity and tannins as the wine opens up in the glass — useful when serving younger wines or working through a structured tasting flight. Each glass has a recommended serving measure of 250ml, giving front-of-house staff a clear visual reference for consistent pouring without the need for a separate measure.
In a busy service environment, consistency and durability both matter. These glasses are well suited to restaurant dining rooms, wine bars, and hotel food and beverage operations where presentation standards are high but the glasses still need to go through a commercial glasswasher repeatedly without clouding or losing clarity. The pack quantity of 24 supports a mid-sized covers operation, giving enough units in rotation to maintain table turns without running short during a full service.
Practical considerations for front-of-house use:
- Angled bowl aids consistent 250ml pouring without additional measures
- Pack of 24 suits mid-volume service and standard glasswasher rotations
- Clear glass allows confident presentation of colour and clarity to guests
- Stackable storage profile helps with back-of-house organisation between services
- Suitable for both seated tasting menus and informal by-the-glass service
These glasses are a practical choice for operators who want to elevate their wine service without moving to fragile fine-crystal stemware. For higher-volume operations running 100 covers or more per service, it is worth considering whether a larger pack quantity or a more robust everyday wine glass would better suit the throughput demands.
If you are building out a glassware range for a new opening or want to discuss how these fit alongside your existing service style, we are happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- For a dining room running up to around 40 covers with a single sitting, 24 glasses typically provides enough in-rotation stock to manage service and glasswasher turnaround. Operators running larger covers counts or multiple sittings should consider holding two or more packs to avoid shortfalls during peak service.
- Yes, these glasses are designed for the demands of commercial food service and are suitable for use in standard commercial glasswashers. Using the correct glasswasher detergent and rinse aid dosing will help maintain long-term clarity and avoid clouding over repeated cycles.
- They are well suited to structured tasting environments — the angled bowl is specifically designed to develop a wine's characteristics as it sits in the glass, which makes it a practical choice for tasting menus, flight service, or wine pairing covers. The consistent 250ml fill reference also helps staff manage portion control across multiple courses.
