A glass made for red wine and in particular the grape varieties Cabernet and Merlot. Dishwasher safe. This range of glasses from Riedel do more than just catch the eye, the Riedel Performance range is a technologically advanced and user-friendly collection of grape varietal specific glasses. They are the first Riedel wine glass series ever to feature bowls with a light optic impact. A unique optical effect adds a pleasing visual aspect to the bowl, as well as increases the inner surface area, allowing the wine to open up allowing a better experience of every aroma and subtle nuance. Detailed research by the RIEDEL family, aimed at improving the organoleptic wine experience, revealed that increasing the inner surface area of the glass had a positive impact on the perception of the bouquet and flavour of the wine.
