This glass was described by
Decanter magazine as "The finest Burgundy glass of all time, suitable for both young and old Burgundies."
Its shape, developed in 1958, represented a quantum leap in terms of wine glass design -- and has earned it a place in the permanent display of the New York Museum of Modern Art. The large bowl allows the bouquet to develop to the fullest, while the slightly flared top lip maximizes the fruit flavors by directing a precise flow onto the front palate. Perfect for red wines with high acidity and moderate tannin, this glass directs the wine to the tip of the tongue with its cut rim.
