(TheDrinksBusiness) - American wine critic James Suckling has launched an £80, multi-purpose, “100 Points” wine glass in collaboration with French crystal company Lalique. Working with Lalique designer Marc Larminaux in Paris, Suckling scoured books of old Lalique designs in search of inspiration for the “ideal” wine glass. “My parents and grandparents had Lalique at home in LA and it was always considered the benchmark for beautiful crystal in my family,” Suckling said. Each 100 Points glass, which features a medium, U-shaped bowl and a frosted rib stem, takes 15-20 workers to make over a period of 4-5 days.
