At Spiegelau, we believe every beverage deserves to be served in an attractive, affordable glass that delivers a high level of performance for the user - be it a beer glass, a wine glass, a cocktail glass, or any other drinking vessel. However, with such a wide range of glassware available, it can take time to identify the Spiegelau collection that best fits your needs - especially if you're new to our glassware.

Fortunately, we're on hand to point you in the right direction so you can quickly identify the most suitable Spiegelau glassware for you. Read on as we cover the best Spiegelau options to accommodate all tastes.

For the wine lover

We may cater to lovers of all drinks, but wine glasses are where we offer the widest selection of options. We have collections to satisfy wine enthusiasts at all stages of their wine journey and for lovers of all styles of wine.

Premium wine glass collections

  • If you're an experienced wine enthusiast with a taste for the finer things, our SPIEGELAU Definition and SPIEGELAU Hi-Lite collections are sure to satisfy you. Precision-made with advanced machine glassmaking technology, these are our two premier glassware collections, featuring feather-light glassware weighing as little as 120g per glass.
  • Experienced wine lovers may also want to consider our SPIEGELAU Authentis Collection, which for years has symbolized authentic wine enjoyment. The Spiegelau Authentis Collection turns the spotlight on the individual character of the wine, allowing its full sensory impact to come to the fore, which is underlined by this collection receiving a Certificate of Excellence from the German Sommeliers Association.

Intermediary wine glass collections

  • Suppose you’re not quite a wine know-it-all, but you don’t consider yourself a total novice either. We have collections that are perfect for bridging the gap between newbie and expert – most notably our Spiegelau Lifestyle and Spiegelau Style collections.
  • SPIEGELAU Lifestyle defies the conventional contrastings against our usual wine glass design, with a modern diamond shape heightened by a sophisticated linear texture. SPIEGELAU Lifestyle isn't just for wine; with beer, cocktail, tumbler, and long drink glasses also available, this collection is ideal if you want to maintain a uniform style across all glassware in your cupboard.
  • If you enjoy the diamond shape of our Lifestyle series but prefer a crystal-clear surface to a textured one, you'll love SPIEGELAU Style. The contemporary, stripped-down aesthetic of SPIEGELAU Style makes it suitable for a wide range of table concepts so that you can enjoy this series to your heart's content.

Entry-level wine glass collections

  • Looking for a wine glass collection to kickstart your wine journey? SPIEGELAU Winelovers is the perfect introductory collection to opt for - especially if you enjoy a classic, minimalist style. This series displays a classic stemmed goblet across all glasses, so you'll fall head over heels if you want a traditional, uncompromising design from your wine glasses.

If you're after glassware to satisfy your cocktail-making needs, our SPIEGELAU Perfect Serve Collection is the number one choice, whether you’re a professional bartender or a stay-at-home mixologist. Developed in partnership with award-winning bartender Stephen Hinz - owner of Little Link Bar in Cologne, Germany, Perfect Serve was developed to cater to the demands of a modern bar, featuring glassware for any cocktail style. Some favorites from this collection include:

  • The Spiegelau Perfect Serve D.O.F Glass, ideal for spirit-forward cocktails served over ice, such as an old fashioned or a negroni.

We also offer cocktail glasses across other collections. If you own wine glasses from our Spiegelau Style collections and which to keep a consistent look with your glassware, you can do so with our Spiegelau Lifestyle Longdrink, Spiegelau Lifestyle Tumbler, and Spiegelau Lifestyle Coupette glasses, as well as our Spiegelau Style Coupette glass. We also offer a specific Spiegelau Espresso Martini glass that reflects the enormous growth in popularity of this relatively recently developed cocktail.
