When enjoyed from the Riedel Burgundy Grand Cru glass, red wines display their full aromatic and structural complexity:

• Aromas become more open and layered, revealing delicate florals, ripe red berries, forest floor, and subtle spice with greater intensity.
• Palate sensations are softened, with a perceived sweetness and textural roundness that enhances mouthfeel.
• Acidity is seamlessly integrated, and the wide bowl allows for optimal aeration, revealing nuance and balance.
• Alcohol is deemphasized, supporting the wine’s finesse over power.

This glass is especially transformative for expressive, fragile wines, letting their voices be heard clearly and gracefully.

Serving Suggestions

Ideal for serving a wide range of elegant, light- to medium-bodied red wines with subtle complexity and vibrant acidity:

• Classic Old World Reds: Burgundy (Pinot Noir), Barbaresco, Barolo, Vosne-Romanée, Chambolle-Musigny, Musigny
• New World Selections: Oregon or Central Otago Pinot Noir
• Aromatic and Structured Reds: Nerello Mascalese, Nebbiolo, Beaujolais Cru
• Sparkling Rosé Wines: Rosé Champagne and Blanc de Noirs for a more expressive, vinous experience

Tips for Use:

• Allow wines to breathe before serving to maximize the aromatic expansion this glass enables.
• Hand wash or use the dishwasher with care—while dishwasher safe, each piece is individually handmade and should be handled gently.
• Serve wine at slightly cool room temperature (around 16°C / 60°F) to enhance the structure and bouquet.

This glass is more than just a vessel—it's a tribute to the art of winemaking and appreciation, transforming the act of drinking wine into a deeply immersive sensory experience.
