RIEDEL WINE WINGS series, a wine glass specifically for Cabernet Sauvignon. - Brand: RIEDEL - Model Name: WINE WINGS - Type: Wine Glass - Purpose: For Cabernet Sauvignon Height: 250mm Capacity: 950ml Material: Crystal Glass Country of Origin: Germany An innovative, high-performance glass with a flat bottom to increase the wine's surface area exposed to air, and a curve that directs the rising aromas to the nose. Georg explains the functionality of this groundbreaking new series as follows: "The most distinctive feature of this glass is the flat, wide bottom. It's shaped like a wing to increase the surface area of the wine in contact with the air. This increases the evaporation of the wine, allowing the aromas to be drawn out more effectively. When you tilt the glass to drink, your nose naturally comes closer, allowing you to experience the aromas more intensely. However, that alone isn't enough to fully appreciate the complex, layered aromas of each grape variety. Therefore, we've narrowed the top of the glass and adjusted the diameter to match the characteristics of each wine. This integration of the innovative flat bottom, a first for us, with the traditional egg-shaped narrowing that Riedel has been developing for years, has resulted in a high-performance glass unlike any other." Thank you for viewing.
