Riedel Sommeliers Montrachet
Best choice for connoisseurs of full-bodied white wines.
This glass is a masterclass in engineering for full-bodied whites, using a wide bowl to aerate complex profiles that would otherwise feel stifled. It demands careful handling due to its delicate, thin-blown crystal, but the trade-off is an unparalleled sensory experience that makes every pour feel like an event.
