Description
The Cabernet glass is perfect for full-bodied, complex red wines that are high in tannin. The generous size of this glass allows the bouquet to develop fully, and smooths out the rough edges. It emphasises the fruit, playing down the bitter qualities of the tannin, and allows wines to achieve balance. As part of the Performance series, this shape was re-developed in 2018 for better aromatics. The optic impact in the RIEDEL Performance series adds both a design feature and an astounding effect on wine's aromatics.
Perfect for...Bordeaux (red), Cabernet Sauvignon, St. Emilion, Listrac, Moulis, Margaux, St. Estèphe, Cabernet Franc, Fronsac, Merlot, Graves rouge, Pauillac, St. Julien, Sauvignon Blanc (oaked), Melon de Bourgogne (Muscadet), Pomerol, Pessac Leognan (Rouge)
