SUSPENSE

SUSPENSE IS AN EXPLORATION INTO THE PERFORMANCE OF WINE TASTING. A CELEBRATION OF WINE AND THE RITUALS THAT SURROUND IT.

Suspense is carefully designed to extend the moment between wine leaving the bottle and being tasted, and finds delight in the small treasures in between the two. It takes the wine on a journey, allowing it precious time to breathe as it flows. The imposed interruption between the bottle and the glass encourages the individual characteristics of the wine to shine through; the richness of colour, the depth of smell, the opacity, the texture, and even the sound.

Both neophytes and connoisseurs are invited to become spectators, and witness the decantation as they would observe a painting. Every beautiful detail, every subtle transformation. It is an all encapsulating and theatrical experience.

  • "SUSPENSE AT ITS HEART IS AN EXPLORATION OF THE CONSUMPTION OF WINE, A WAY TO EMBRACE ALL ASPECTS OF THE UNIQUE WINE EXPERIENCE."

    - Mike Simonelli

WHEN TIME ENHANCES TASTE

Suspense redefines aeration by introducing a moment of deliberate pause. Used with its sculpted decanter or placed directly over any wine glass, the aerator slows the pour, creating a suspended instant in which the act of pouring, usually overlooked, becomes part of the experience. As the flow decelerates through the stainless-steel filter, oxygen begins its work in full view, unfolding the wine’s structure with a controlled, graceful sequence.

In this brief delay, the ritual of pouring is transformed. The familiar gesture is intentionally disrupted, shifting attention from the drinker to the liquid itself. Oxidation becomes a visible performance: colour deepens, aromas loosen, and the wine’s character reveals itself gradually, as though emerging from the pause.

Suspense elevates a functional process into a quiet study of transformation, making time, and the awareness of it, essential to taste.

    MADE BY HAND

    The glass pieces, with their sleek and delicate lines, are created with technical expertise. Each one is handmade by a skilled glassblower in Italy. Every movement of the glass requires the highest experience to master.

    A PERFECTED SHAPE

    The glass cone went through a long and meticulous prototyping process to achieve a consistent conic shape and the perfect balance between the glass piece and the metal filter.

    EXPERTLY POLISHED

    The metal stand is laser cut and laser welded, before being expertly polished to a mirror finish. The result of this process is a remarkably smooth piece that delicately holds the glass cone in place.

    A UNIQUE PIECE

    Made from food grade stainless steel, the filter’s distinctive shape simultaneously traps the sediment, increases the exposure to oxygen and slows the wine flow transforming it into a performance.
