Description
- BORDEAUX/SUPER TUSCON - Especially designed for full body flavor red wines like Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot and Petit Verdot. The tallness of the glass allows the wine to proceed directly to the back of the mouth to maximize its flavor. Its tapered shape allows you to enjoy the aromas as you sip the wine while delivering the wine to the right parts of the mouth where you have the best ability to perceive its flavors.
- LARGE - The larger the bowl the better the wine's aromas can circulate and manifest themselves. Glassware intended for red wine tends to be bigger, since red wines need more time and air to open up. Swirling a wine in a large glass releases its aroma, and if there is enough room in the glass, the scent of the wine will explode from the glass. You are giving the wine more room to show its complex aromas and flavors.
- THE PERFECT GIFT FOR ANY OCCASION - luxuriously gift boxed and light weight the wine glass will make the perfect gift for friends, loved ones, birthday, wedding, anniversary, best option for party's, romantic dinners, occasions and gatherings.
- LONG STEM - This wine glass is hand blown to a hight of 12 inches for 2 reasons 1) By holding the stem and not the bowl, you don't warm the glass and its contents. This is important for all Red Wines should be served at a proper temperature and it can become overly warmed by your hands. 2) By holding the stem and not the bowl, you keep the glassware free of smudges. This allows you to clearly see the wine and keeps your glass attractive and clean. It is also much easier to swirl a glass by the stem.
- THIN FINE CRYSTAL - Hand made out of the most expensive high end thin crystal it really does enhance the wine drinking experience. The thinner the crystal rim, the less the glass distracts from the wine as you sip, the wine glass will have a cut rim that is smooth to the touch and does not inhibit the wine as it flows out of the glass. Crystal wine glasses have a rougher surface, on a microscopic level, than regular glass. When swirling the wine, this uneven surface makes crystal more effective at releasing esters. As a result, wine served in crystal stemware will explode on the nose, compared to plain stemware that shows a flat and lifeless wine.
