A Bordeaux-type wine glass that is a tulip shape. This shape makes the astringency of tannins feel softer, because the aroma rises more easily. It also allows the wine to spread horizontally over the tongue. Bordeaux wine and various other kinds of wine can be enjoyed in good balance with this all-purpose glass. We recommend starting with this type if you have trouble choosing a wine glass. All RIVERET products are dishwasher-safe, making them easy to care for.
