With its unique thick stem design, the Alternato breathes new life into the world of wine glasses by providing an alternative to the usual tall stemware designs so common in wine glasses. With a round bowl ideal for red wine, the Alternato is universal enough to be used for whites and rosés.

Trapped in the base of the Alternato is a single large bubble, which is common to the Durobor range, identifying them from other glassware ranges. The unique design of the Alternato perfectly lends itself to other uses, especially as a nice display glass for a cocktail.

As used by ASK Italian restaurants across the country.

Customer Reviews
Just what I ordered
"What can I say! Order went smoothly & items arrived within notified timescales! Packaged well & no breakages. Would use again."
Sherri Cooke - Colchester, 18th October '17
Fabulous
"Saw these glasses on ''Come Dine'' and HAD to have some! Didn't take long to find them from typing balloon glass into Google. My order arrived super fast and super well boxed. Everyone admires them, they are practical and super glam. Love them. Already checking out the rest of the range on here."
Amanda Cain - Tyne and Wear, 6th May '15
Dare To Be Different!!
"Following a visit to our local ASK I was determined to find some of these glasses - easier to achieve than expected!!
Absolutely delighted and will be purchasing more, larger ones next time.
Very impressed with the service I received from drinkstuff, will definitely recommend to others."
Julie Izzard - Kent, 19th August '14
Lovely Glasses
"Bought these for my Mum as she loved them when we recently visited the Ask restaurant. Didn't realise until they had arrived that you can buy them in different sizes. I thought they seemed a bit small and didn't quite have the WOW factor of the larger ones however my Mum was really pleased with them and loves them and they easily hold a normal size full glass of wine. Will probably order some for myself however think I will go for the larger ones."
Marie Hosford - Southampton, 9th August '14
Drinkstuff says: Many thanks for your review Marie. As a thank you we've added 5 points to your drinkstuff account, which is equivalent to £5 off your next order.
Great Service And Products
"I ordered the smaller version (30cl) but wish I'd gone for these slightly bigger ones! Might be putting in another order shortly!
Apart from that they are great sturdy and stylish glasses which arrived quickly and at a competitive price. Thank you."
Ben - Devon, 24th March '14
Alternato Wine - Good Almost (But Not Quite) To The Last Drop!
"These are funky wine glasses. I chose them mostly because I thought their heavy bases would reduce the number of times I sent a glassful of cab sauv flailing across my lime green carpet. I was right. They're seriously stable. But I hadn't realised just how good they would feel too. Only one drawback - you can't drain them without turning them near vertical, so there's always an irritating 2ml left to chuck down the sink. But is a price worth paying. Especially as it's a low price."
Richard Ayre - Ilford, 23rd March '14
Flawed But Lovely
"I love these glasses. They live up to descriptions and expectations. the only issue is that there were 2 flawed glasses in a delivery of 6. I only spotted one at first, so was disappointed. However, the replacement came quickly and without any hassle at all. So quality checking not so good but service and glass appeal 100%"
Jan - Surrey, 21st May '13
Drinkstuff says: We're sorry that you had this issue with your order Jan. Unfortunately some glassware items can get damaged in transit. I have passed on your issue to our warehouse team to look in to providing better packaging for the Alternato glasses.

"Looked for these glasses for ages, so happy I found them, love them."

Wine Glass
"Seen these glasses at a friends house went on line and drinkstuff were the best."
Phill Gallon - Jersey, 28th January '13
Gorgeous Glasses
"I had been looking at these glasses on drinkstuff for a while. The other reviews convinced me to buy them and I'm so glad I did! These glasses are a great size - sturdy but elegant. In other words they look fabulous, but are robust enough to be cleaned without fear (which is a great advantage if, like me, you have ever broken a glass or snapped a delicate wine glass stem in the process of washing them up!)
Like one of the other reviewers, I am tempted to order the larger size too, just to add drama to a dinner party table setting.
Also, drinkstuff were great - fast delivery, excellent packaging and great communication throughout the order process."
Caroline - Somerset, 25th January '13
Alternato Glasses
"I had the girls round and everyone commented on how nice the glasses were, sturdy but comfortable to hold. No worries of them getting knocked or stems being broken whilst cleaning them."
Jessica - London, 14th January '13
Stunning Absolute Stunning
"These glasses are awesome, they are great wine glasses and are guaranteed to get people talking as to where you got them from and how lovely they are. I have used them as dessert dishes and also for cold starters at a dinner party. I love using them and I love the way they look, they were stunning on my Christmas table."
Mr David Edwards-Loaring - Caerphilly, 31st December '12

Alternato Glasses
"Gorgeous glasses, everyone has commented on these lovely glasses, they are big enough to hold beer too. Also very sturdy as I have knocked it over twice and still in one piece. I love them so much I have bought a further supply in case they run out in the future and I wont be able to get a hold of them. Highly recommended."
Su Williamson - Jersey, 5th November '12
Wine Glasses
"Saw these glasses in a restaurant and had to have them, they have received many comments from dinner guests."
Tracey Forster - London, 5th August '12
Great Value
"I ordered these glasses as I had seen them in Ask. However, other companies are asking more for 2 glasses than I paid for 6 glasses! Love these glasses - might just have to get the bigger ones too. Delivery was prompt. Will definitely order from this site again."
Lesley Jewell - Shropshire, 22nd May '12
Glass And A Half
"We bought these glasses after we had seen them in ASK Italian restaurants and couldn't find them anywhere, until I came across them on drinkstuff.
These glasses are beautifully designed - although if you pour the wine too quick you can lose precious drops!! :-( - and sit perfectly in the hand. We ordered the medium sized glasses for no other reason than we are starting with these and may purchase the larger ones at a later date (or a nice person could buy them us @ Xmas).
The glasses look good on the table and can accommodate red or white wine without looking silly or impractical - I don't mention Ros??, because I don't like it but I am sure they work as well for anything - maybe even mojitos - now there's an idea!
All in all a good sturdy product and well worth the money.
drinkstuff service and delivery was also very good and I wouldn't hesitate to use you again.
Cheers"

Brilliant Glasses
"Perfect all round glasses, elegant enough for wine and big enough for a beer. Also nice and stable for when there are 2 overgrown kittens around!"
Louise Sparrow - Woodbridge, Suffolk, 17th January '12
5 stars
"Excellent service. Couldn't believe they arrived so quickly, especially as it was over the Christmas period. Lovely glasses, well packaged on arrival."
Trevor Baker - Stevenage, 11th January '12
Super Glasses
"These glasses are great for any drink as they are so versatile."
Julie - Stoke-on-Trent, 27th December '11
Alternato Wine Glasses (6)
"I am pleased with my purchase, the glasses are very lovely and the design is unique. When I ordered this item, I was not sure about the base of the glass but it is lovely to look at and to drink out of. I would recommend this item to friends and family."
Goldie - Plaistow, London, 1st November '11
Disappointed
"I have been looking for an age to find some new wine glasses that look good and could be for every day use also fit in the dishwasher.
I thought these fitted the bill but I have to say, yes they are as advertised but a little too heavy and chunky for my taste and I certainly would not use them for a dinner party.
My husband on the other hand thinks they are wonderful :-)"
Sue Sorkin - Deal, Kent, 18th September '11
Luv My Glasses
"Bought these glasses as everyday use (well maybe not everyday) and love them. Sturdy enough to use regularly and fancy enough for dinner parties. All my friends comment on them."
Yvonne Redford - Scotland, 6th September '11
Perfect
"We wanted some wine glasses that were a little bit different, sturdy, versatile while being something of a conversation piece and that is precisely what we got and at a bargain price too!"
Lara - Isle of Man, 27th June '11

Alternato Wine Glasses
"Gorgeous glasses, very classy, stylish and modern."
Thomas O'Neill - Scotland, 13th July '10
Alternato Wine Glasses
"Red, White or Rose...
Morning, Noon or Night...
You don't need a special time of day or favourite choice of wine to get these superb glasses out and put them to use!
They look incredible - EVERYONE who sees them have asked where I got them!!
But wait... add some of your 'tipple of the moment' and just cradle one in your hand. These wonderful drink pieces add something special to the art and act of drinking.
Oh - did I mention that the price is so incredibly and awesomely LOW?
Go on, get some today - you, your friends & your taste buds deserve it!!!"
Graham Lovegrove - Chudleigh, Devon, 3rd February '10

Amazing Alternato Wineglasses
