Riedel's Winewings collection takes the flat-bottomed, egg-shaped silhouette and applies it to varietal-specific glasses. The Cabernet/Merlot is designed for the big reds Napa is known for.
Set of four, machine-made crystal, dishwasher safe. The wide base allows the wine to breathe; the tapered top concentrates the aroma.
