RIEDEL Winewings Cabernet / Merlot

The RIEDEL Winewings Cabernet Sauvignon Glass is a bold innovation for bold wines. With its unique flat-bottomed bowl and wide-winged design: this glass amplifies the aromatic complexity of powerful reds like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Bordeaux-style blends. Created to maximize surface area, the design allows the wine to breathe instantly. Revealing vibrant primary fruit aromas and intricate floral and herbal nuances.

When you pour a structured red into this glass, the bouquet opens quickly. Dark cherry, cassis, violet, graphite, and cedar rise from the bowl with striking clarity. On the palate, the glass directs the wine to the right areas of the tongue, enhancing fruit expression while softening tannins. The result is a smoother, more balanced tasting experience, especially with young, age-worthy wines.

This piece is part of the RIEDEL Winewings collection, a high-performance series developed through rigorous tastings with top winemakers and sommeliers. Inspired by aerodynamics, each glass in the range mimics the lift of a wing to elevate aroma and flavor. For full-bodied reds with firm tannins and layered structure, the Cabernet Sauvignon glass is the clear choice.

Crafted from clear crystal, this stem is machine-made at RIEDEL’s state-of-the-art production facility in Kufstein, Austria. It combines industrial precision with glassmaking artistry. Despite its professional quality, the glass remains dishwasher safe, making it suitable for both collectors and casual enthusiasts.

At americanwine.club, we recommend this glass for premium Napa Valley Cabernet, Merlot from the Columbia Valley, or Bordeaux-style blends with long aging potential. Use it to elevate your next tasting, dinner, or celebration. Serve your wine at 16–18 °C and let it breathe in the bowl, no decanter needed.
