The distinctive diamond-shaped bowl with wide-angled contours is engineered specifically for this job. At 800ml, it provides generous space for the aromatics of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and similar structured New World reds to develop fully before reaching the nose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe rim geometry directs the wine to the front palate on entry, where the sweetness of fruit registers first and the tannin is delivered in a way that reads as structure rather than astringency.

The front-palate delivery from the rim geometry means the wine's first impression on the palate is its fruit sweetness rather than its tannin, which for high-tannin New World reds makes the wine taste more approachable and better balanced, particularly when served young.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom:15px;border:1px solid #557B97;border-radius:5px;padding:15px;background:white;box-sizing:border-box;width:100%;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight:bold;cursor:pointer;color:#557b97;font-size:16px;padding:5px 0;min-height:44px;display:flex;align-items:center;\"\u003eIs this glass suitable for Old World Cabernet and Bordeaux?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:0;line-height:1.6;\"\u003eThe Extreme Cabernet bowl is optimised for the fruit-forward, softness-forward profile of New World Cabernet styles.

For bold, tannic New World reds, this argument is at its most compelling. Cabernet Sauvignon with 14.5% alcohol and grippy tannins in the wrong glass is a difficult drink. In a glass that directs the wine to the front palate and gives the aromatics room to develop, the same wine reveals its fruit and presents its tannin as structure rather than aggression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe diamond-shaped bowl is the visual expression of this engineering. The wide angles are not a design flourish: they are the functional mechanism by which the glass increases the wine-to-air surface area and controls the delivery angle to the palate. The shape looks dramatic because it is doing something specific.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFor wine lists that lean toward bold New World reds, the Extreme Cabernet is the glass that makes those wines show at their best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"specs-0454-0\" style=\"background:#f8f9fa;padding:15px;border-radius:5px;margin:15px 0;box-sizing:border-box;width:100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color:#557b97;margin-top:0;font-size:18px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel Restaurant Extreme\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU \/ Item Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0454\/0\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Set of 12\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 800ml (27 oz)\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 247mm (9 3\/4\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 104mm (4 1\/8\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lead-free crystal glass\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Machine-made\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for 1,500 cycles\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpected Lifespan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10+ years under normal restaurant service\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz, Malbec, Zinfandel, and other full-bodied tannic New World reds\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom:10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professional restaurant and bar use (trade-only)\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"care-0454-0\" style=\"background:#f8f9fa;padding:15px;border-radius:5px;margin:15px 0;box-sizing:border-box;width:100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color:#557b97;margin-top:0;\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for 1,500 cycles.
