Handle the density and concentration of complex reds

The Riedel Wine Wings Cabernet / Merlot glasses, introduced in 2020, represent a harmonious fusion of form and function, specifically tailored for full-bodied, complex red wines rich in tannin.

Each glass in the series boasts a generous volume of 35.34 ounces and a height of 9.84 inches, providing ample space for the wine's bouquet to fully develop. The unique design accentuates the fruit while playing down the bitter qualities of the tannin, allowing the wine to achieve a balanced and smooth taste.

Crafted from crystal, these glasses are machine-made, ensuring both precision and consistency in every piece. They are dishwasher safe, making them both elegant and convenient for everyday use​​​.

​The Riedel Wine Wings series is distinguished by its innovative flat-bottomed, wide design, reminiscent of an aircraft wing, complete with winglets. This design choice isn't just aesthetic; it serves a functional purpose by increasing the surface area the wine is exposed to. This increased exposure enhances the evaporation levels and intensifies the aroma of the wine, offering a more immersive tasting experience.

The concept of the Riedel Wine Wings series was developed to create a glass that could handle the density and concentration of such complex wines, ensuring that each sip is a testament to the wine's full potential​​.

Designed for wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Margaux, Cabernet Franc, Médoc, and Bordeaux (red), these glasses are perfect for wine enthusiasts and professionals alike. They are sold in sets of four, making them an ideal choice for hosting wine tastings or dinners where the full expression of red wines is desired.

The Riedel Wine Wings Cabernet / Merlot glasses are more than just drinkware; they are a statement of sophistication and a testament to Riedel's commitment to enhancing the enjoyment of wine through thoughtful and innovative glass design​​​​.
