Description
This Riedel Veritas Cabernet/Merlot glass is perfect for young, full-bodied (more than 12 percent alcohol), complex red wines that are high in tannin. It smoothes out the rough edges, emphasizing the fruit and 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 while 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.
Georg Riedel says "Veritas combines the charm of a handmade glass with the consistent accuracy only a machine made glass can achieve."
These glasses are suitable for a wide variety of red wines and are now temporarily available with the Mosel machine made decanter (RRP £35.00)!
