Riedel Vinum Bordeaux Crystal Wine Glasses, Pay 6 Get 8

Description

Sip in style with this Riedel Vinum Bordeaux/Cabernet glass set. Introduced in
1986, Vinum became the first machine-made glass in history to be based on the
characteristics of grape varietal. Designed in tasting work shops based on the
performance where the content commands the shape, each Vinum glass is made
from machine-blown crystal and shaped for each type of wine or beverage. This
set is perfect for young, full-bodied (more than 12 percent alcohol), complex
red wines that are high in tannin, this glass smooths out the rough edges,
emphasizing the fruit and allowing wines to achieve a balance that would
normally take years of aging to acquire. The generous size of each glass
allows the bouquet to develop fully while 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. With its
specially designed shape to enhance the flavor, this beautiful
Bordeaux/Cabernet glass set is the perfect way to enjoy Bordeaux, Cabernet,
and other red wines.8-7/8″ H, with a 21.5 ounce capacity
