I've been eager to upgrade my champagne-drinking experience for ages, so last year, just before New Year's Eve in 2024, I decided to get a set of champagne flutes. I headed to the nearest Magnit Cosmetics store, and since there weren't many options, I went with the Luminarc Allegress flutes. They were affordable, and I thought, why not?

Luminarc Champagne Flutes Review
The flutes are securely packed inside, so they don't touch each other. What's more, you can even check out the design and shape of the flutes without opening the box.
However, we did check the flutes with the sales associate once we opened the box.
The tulip-shaped flutes.
They do remind me of a spring flower, and I love how elegant they look on a festive table.
The flutes are made of sodium-calcium silicate glass.
Not crystal, of course, but they do ring when you clink them together, creating a pleasant sound.
The walls are quite thick, making the flutes sturdy, although the stem is a bit thin. But don't worry, they're stable, and I haven't seen any of them chip or break yet.
Height of the glass is 22 cm, which is perfect for sipping champagne.
Volume is 175 ml, and the weight is 140 grams.
The neck is narrow, and initially, it might feel a bit awkward to hold the glasses, but you get used to it.
However, this shape is specifically designed for sparkling wine, as the bubbles last longer, and the narrow shape of the glass, also known as a flute, allows you to better appreciate the aroma and taste of the drink.

At first glance, the flutes seem very delicate, but after using them for a while, I was impressed by their build quality. The stems didn't break, and the glass didn't crack - that's a high mark in my book.
I wash my dishes by hand, and sometimes, I accidentally break something, but these glasses have always remained intact. I was pleasantly surprised.

The stems are stable, and the glasses don't tip over on the table.
When lit up with fairy lights, the flutes look especially festive and beautiful. I really like how they create a celebratory atmosphere.

ConclusionThey're affordable and accessible, making them a great addition to any champagne-drinking experience.
These champagne flutes are made of tempered glass, which is both elegant and durable. I've dropped them a few times, but miraculously, they're still intact and unscathed after months of use.

The narrow neck takes some getting used to, but it's not uncomfortable at all. Although, I'm not sure how people with longer noses will fare (laughs).
These flutes are understated yet elegant, perfect for sipping sparkling wines.
