Zalto's elegant, smoked glass spittoons are mouth-blown and available in two sizes; the 250 table model is 210 mm tall and holds 2600 ml while the smaller 50 mm model, ideal for a single taster, is 130 mm with a 610 ml capacity. Explaining the decision to introduce this specialist product, Zalto's Thomas Zichtl told The Drinks Business magzine: "Many of the finest wine producers in Austria and Italy are using Zalto to present their wines to the public at either fairs or at their wineries, and while the top wines are served in Zalto glasses at professional tastings, the sampled wine is very often returned into a plastic bucket or some kind of cooler with a lid." Continuing he said: "We did not like this 'Stilbruch', or clashing with the style, so Zalto thought about an aesthetic solution and the Zalto 'Restweinkaraffe - as we call our spittoon - was realised, with a big one for the table and small one for professional tasters."

About Austrian Wine
Austria is a country with over 4000 years of wine making history, however, it unfortunately doesn't seem to enjoy the status and popularity that the high quality of it's wines deserve. Decades later, the country is still feeling the effects of a scandal in 1985 that destroyed its credibility at the time.
Grüner Veltliner is the most important wine made in Austria, distinguished by its lightly fruity, noticeable spice and characteristic white pepper notes. This variety comprises roughly a third of all plantings. In terms of volume, Riesling plays a much smaller role than in Germany, but is responsible for some of the most appreciated dry white wines made in the country.
In red varietals, Austrian native varieties are dominant and include the tart and peppery Zweigelt, spicy and dense Blaufränkisch and juicy Saint Laurent.
