The most famous Italian sparkling
wine, Prosecco Spumante, now has its own glass: an
'official' glass which is the best tool to emphasize
fully Prosecco's charactererstics - elegance, fragrant
aromas, fine bubbles. It's a brand new crystal glass
designed by Riedel exclusively for Prosecco Spumante
produced in Conegliano Valdobbiadene 'DOC'
(denominazione di origine controllata), the hilly area
north of Venice, which lies at the foot of the Alps,
the territory where most of the good quality Prosecco
originates.
The Riedel Prosecco glass is
inspired by the modern and attractive crystal Riedel
range Vinum Extreme. The shape of the bowl somewhat
resembles a 'diamond'. The glass is large enough so
that when you pour your Prosecco, you do not have to
stop serving the wine, waiting for the foam to vanish,
as only a small, perfect quantity of foam develops.
This allows the best appreciation of bubbles. Not only
that: by filling the glass up to where the bowl gets
to its maximum diameter (77 mm), half of the glass
remains empty, and you have exactly 100 ml, which is
the most suitable quantity for a correct
tasting. |
