Perfect for young,
full-bodied (more than 12 percent alcohol), complex red wines that are
high in tannin.
This glass smoothes
out the rough edges, emphasizing the fruit, allowing wines to achieve
a balance that would normally take years of ageing to acquire.
The generous size of
this glass allows the bouquet to develop fully. 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.
