This Bordeaux Grand Cru glass is perfect for full-bodied, complex red wines rich in tannins. Designed as one of the first “wine-friendly” glasses, its generous size lets the bouquet develop fully. It highlights the fruit’s aroma while softening the bitter qualities of tannin, helping the wines reach the best possible balance.
The emblematic grape of Bordeaux and Napa Valley, Cabernet Sauvignon makes powerful, structured, tannic wines. Typical aromas mix blackcurrant, cedar, tobacco and pepper. A generous, wide-bowled glass is essential to soften the tannins and open the aromatic complexity of these wines built for ageing.
