Allegra Focus white wine glasses in two lines
Allegra Focus is the white wine glass of the Pasabahce Allegra line: 350ml capacity, 21.5cm tall, a tulip bowl with vertical optic ribs and a long, slim stem. It is sold in packs of 6. The manufacturer makes it in Turkey.
Among white wine glasses, it is a shape made for a wine-by-the-glass list: the bowl closes towards the rim and holds the aromas, the stem keeps the hand away from the wine, and the ribs give the glass a pattern that shows from a distance, on the bar or at the table.
Who these white wine glasses are for
For the bar that pours wine by the glass and wants something other than the plain glass everyone uses, without moving to crystal and its price. For the restaurant that lays the table with one wine glass for the whole evening. For the hotel serving white at aperitivo time on the terrace. For the caterer who takes the same shape to fifty covers and finds it again when reordering.
And for anyone at home who wants the restaurant glass: 350ml is the right size for a white served chilled, with room above the wine to swirl it.
The shape: tulip bowl, 350ml, long stem
The bowl is wider at the bottom and narrows towards the rim. It is the classic white wine glass shape: the wine stays concentrated, the aromas rise towards the nose instead of dispersing, and the white warms up more slowly because the exposed surface is small.
The stem is long. The glass is held by the stem and not by the bowl, so the wine does not take the warmth of the hand and the bowl stays clean, without fingerprints, all the way to the table. The foot is wide and keeps the glass upright on the tray.
The optic ribs
“Optic”, in glassware catalogues, means the glass has a raised pattern in the wall. On Allegra Focus it is close-set vertical ribs, from the bottom of the bowl up to the rim. With wine inside, the ribs bring out the colour; empty, they make the glass look worked.
White, rosé, red and cocktails
It is catalogued as a white wine glass, and Pasabahce also sells it for red. For wine by the glass it suits still whites and rosés, and it handles a young red when the list does not have a balloon for every wine.
At the bar the same bowl works for drinks served without ice that have no dedicated glass: a spritz without cubes, an aromatised wine, a fruit-based alcohol-free serve. Cocktails over ice need other shapes, which are in the same stemmed glasses category.
How many white wine glasses you need
For a venue the count is based on service, not on seats. While one glass is at the table, another is in the glass washer, and some must be kept aside for breakages: count at least two glasses per cover. With 30 covers that is 60 glasses, or 10 packs.
Continuity matters as much as the glass. Allegra Focus is a continuous line at the distributor: when one breaks, you buy the same shape again, and the table does not end up laid with two different glasses.
On Allegra Focus white wine glasses the site rule applies. The more you buy, the less you pay: 4 pieces -5%, 6 -7%, 8 -10%, on the same item, that is on the packs of 6. The discount applies automatically in the basket.
Allegra Focus or Power
The white wine glasses in the catalogue also include the Power 400ml white wine glass, plain and larger. Power is the working glass that goes unnoticed. Allegra Focus is smaller, and the ribbed pattern shows: it is the choice when the glass is part of the table setting.

Ribbed wine glass FAQ
How many white wine glasses are in the pack? Six glasses. The price is for the whole pack.
Is it suitable for red wine too? Pasabahce also offers it for red. Full-bodied reds need a wider bowl; for young reds and rosés this one is enough.
Are these white wine glasses dishwasher safe? The manufacturer does not declare it. For long-stemmed glass, a stemware rack holds the glass steady during the wash.
Can I reorder the same shape later? Yes, it is a continuous line at the distributor: the same glass can still be ordered after the first purchase.
