The creme de la creme of luxury stems. The Riedel Sommeliers wine glass line is the top-of-the-line series of stemware from the legendary Riedel. Wine experts agree that glassware makes a profound difference on how wines taste. Riedel Sommeliers wine glasses are the benchmark and the most successful series of hand-made glasses in the world. Each Sommeliers wine glass is individually made of 24% lead crystal: the wine glass bowls are mouth-blown into a mould the stem and base are handcrafted using ancient glass-making methods. Recommend to hand wash. The Riedel Sommeliers Cabernet/Merlot/Bordeaux Wine Glass was developed to highlight the unique characteristics of great Bordeaux. The large bowl allows both young and more mature wines to breath delivering a full spectrum of aromas and brings out the full depth of wines made from Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot and Cabernet Franc. On the palate the texture of the wine - soft silky velvety - is intensified and the finish prolonged gently blending acidity with supple sweet tannins. Recommended for: Bordeaux (red) Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese Cabernet Franc. Size: 10-5/8'H x 3-1/8' Dia. 30-3/8 oz. Riedel Model # 4400/00
