 Classic Wine Glassware
Riedel Wine Glasses - "The finest glasses for both technical and hedonistic purposes are those made by Riedel. The effect of these glasses on fine wine is profound. I cannot emphasize enough what a difference they make.” (Robert M. Parker, Jr. The Wine Advocate)
The shape of the glass bowl is based on the grape varietal.
A wine glass should be:
- colourless
- transparent
- unadorned
- thin-walled with a cut and polished lip
- egg-shaped
- made of crystal
The quality and intensity of the aromas are determined not only by the character of the wine but by the environment in which it is contained.
We have only 5 taste sensations on the tongue, but are able to distinguish between many thousands of olfactory differences. Therefore our sense of smell is a key factor in what we taste.
The shape of the bowl directs the wine smoothly onto the tongue, and traps the blanket of aromas that sit on top of the wine in the glass, capturing them for the nose.
