Of all the SUS cups, I think the Wine has the most beautiful shape. Its rounded body feels almost like a small sculptural vessel, and I love the way the titanium surface follows those curves. At first glance, it looks like hammered metal, but when you pick it up, the texture is much more subtle. There's an almost ceramic quality to it, smooth to the touch, with tiny irregularities that you can feel beneath your fingertips.
It's also a lovely shape for drinking wine. The rounded bowl gives the wine room to release its aromas, while the remarkably thin rim makes drinking from it especially pleasant. Behind all of this is SUS' vacuum-insulated titanium construction, which helps maintain the temperature of your drink. I find it fascinating that a cup can feel so handmade and yet be the result of such sophisticated engineering.
