The generous size of this
hand-made, mouth-blown glass by Waterford Crystal
allows the bouquet to develop fully. The shape directs
the flow of wine onto the zone of the tongue which
perceives sweetness, thus accentuating the fruit and
de-emphasizing the bitter qualities of the tannin.
Perfect for young, full-bodied (more than 12 percent
alcohol), complex red wines that are high in tannin.
Accented with an elegant gold band at the foot of the
stem.
Recommended for: Bordeaux (red),
Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Rioja,
Tempranillo. |
