Amazon.com: Product Description: Riedel Vinum Bordeaux Wine Glasses, Set of 6 (#)
„Every wine has its own blend--fruit, acidity, mineral, tannin, alcohol--based on the grape variety, soil, and climate. By studying the character of the grape variety Riedel is able to deliver wine and spirits to the nose and palate so that each beverage can reach its full expression. The finish plays an important part in the overall impression and even this is strongly influenced by the design of the bowl.It will take time to recognize that a glass is not just a glass but an instrument of pleasure and enjoyment.“

Amazon.com: Books: Jancis Robinson's Guide to Wine Grapes
„(As an added guide to the wine a grape might produce, the Guide includes an easy-to-use visual aid: a horizontal bar with a band which shows the range of quality, from ordinary to superb.) Robinson also shares much fascinating wine history, her deep insight into the wine industry, and more important, her own judgment on a wine. And Robinson does not hedge in judging a wine: discussing Carignan, France's most planted red wine, she comments "Its wine is high in everything--acidity, tannins, color, bitterness--but flavor and charm. This gives it the double inconvenience of being unsuitable for early consumption yet unworthy of maturation." And for Trebbiano, the most planted white grape in Italy (and with Ugni Blanc, which is the name of the grape in France, the second most planted white grape in the world), Robinson notes "the word Trebbiano in a wine name almost invariably signals something light, white, crisp, and uninspiring." Perhaps most important, this portable book can be used in the store as a buying guide. With Robinson's Guide, simply find the grape variety on the label--or, if not listed, turn to Robinson's unique Grapes Behind the Names appendix in the back--look up the entry on that grape, and you will discover everything you need to know to make an informed decision to buy or pass.“

Also suitable for Sangiovese Grosso, the glass stands 8-5/8 inches high and has a 20-3/4-ounce full capacity.“

„Flavonoids are exciting compounds, but this booklet barely begins to tell the story before it is over. Avoid.“

„If the hundred-dollar Bordeaux was the slightest bit cloudy, back it went; sometimes even perfect wine was rejected, simply as a ceremony of power. Only three miles north from Angelo's of Mulberry Street, the uptown eatery was galaxies removed from the straw-covered Chianti bottles of Little Italy, from the communal wedges of pungent cheese, the thick espresso cut with anisette.“
