It was only a few days back that I came across some simply elegant stemless wine glasses at my friends’ red wine tasting party. My friend had organized a small get-together of few close friends all who are partial to good cabernet sauvignon, bordeaux, and pinot noir wines.

First thing I noticed were the really cool stemless wine tumblers he was serving the cabernet wine in – they were Riedel Stemless O Wine Glasses. I had tried stemless wine tumblers before on a few occasions, casual dining affairs and even a wine tasting in Hong Kong on a corporate rooftop, and was already a big fan of stemless wine glasses. The thing which I liked the most was the unique shape of the glasses. They felt durable and you just wanted to keep them in your hand yet looked like wine glasses and I must say, these glasses definitely enhanced the flavor profiles of the cabernet wines we were tasting, albeit they were good wines in the first place.

The Allure Cabernet glasses and decanter set is in stock here

When a bottle of cabernet is first opened it goes through a form of stress. Wines, especially cabernet sauvignon and bordeaux blends, are not static products, they are alive and  change their nature over time. Inside a sealed bottle the wine is protected from air that causes oxidation and spoilage if left exposed for a period of time.

However, some oxidation just after opening a new bottle and prior to drinking is essential in order to bring out the flavors of the wine. In this situation oxidation is good and to achieve that you should use a decanter.

As you pour wine into a decanter you expose all the wine to air which helps it to “breath”. The Allure decanter and glasses assist this breathing exercise by incorporating subtle ripples into the cabernet glasses and decanter, so that when pouring and swirling wine in the cabernet glass extra exposure is ensured, thus releasing more of the wine flavors.
