An ideal glass for full-bodied red wines, with a wide bowl to allow slow decanting to occur in the glass. Perfect for robust reds with firm tannins and concentrated flavours, such as young Bordeaux, modern Tuscan, savoury Syrah, spicy Shiraz or dense Ribera del Duero. “I enjoy this glass with a variety of generous, intense red wines,” says Cho Lee.
Try it for young Italian or modern Spanish reds; Malbec and Cabernet Franc also benefit from this shape, which helps soften tannins through slow aeration, contributing to a finer balanced, supple wine. Enjoy these gutsy reds at 18 degrees Celsius.
