Product Description :
Alternative to Wines by the Glass: the Quartino.
The Italian tradition of the “Quartino” started in 1580 when Pope Gregorio XIII promoted a smaller glass container to limit Rome”s wine consumption, beginning the tradition of serving wines by the “misura” or “by the measure.
” Wine by the individual carafe arrived in America at Babbo, Mario Batali’s Italian restaurant in New York, as an alternative to wines by the glass.
The “Quartino,” or quarter of a liter, works out to be one-third of a conventional 750-milliliter wine bottle, enough for two small glasses, or enough to carry one diner through a plate of pasta.
If a table is indecisive about serving red or white wine, the problem is easily solved by serving two different carafes.
Have you invited friends or family over for dinner? Surprise them by serving wines by the Quartino carafe, just like your favorite Italian restaurant.
The classic shape, with an authentic stamp in quarter-liter, is guaranteed to elevate every occasion.
Offered in a Gift Box Set of 2, for keeping or giving.
