Burgundy wine has a refreshing acidity and mellow aroma and is more enjoyable when it flows straight to the throat while suppressing excess acidity. A special feature of this Bourgogne wine glass is its shape. Starting from the broad base, the glass narrows as it rises to the rim. When you drink from the glass, you have to tilt your head slightly. When you drink this way, the wine does not contact the outer edges of the tongue, which senses acidity. This allows the wine to flow lightly onto the tongue. The ability to suppress excess acidity while better preserving the aroma is a major point of this silhouette. All RIVERET products are dishwasher-safe, making them easy to care for.
