Unoaked Chardonnay Wine Glass, sometimes called Chardonnay/Viognier Wine Glass, is perfect for allowing white wines to express their freshness, spiciness, and mineral characters. It has larger opening guides wine to the top and sides of tongue, enabling the palate to detect the sweetness of the wine. The glass has a balancing act: bowl provides just enough aeration to concentrate the aroma while the larger opening balances out the sweetness and acidity on the palate.
This glass is designed so the Viognier variety's low acidity is delivered in a way that sets off the alcohol and rich flavours of the wine. The shape highlights its velvety, supple texture, emphasizing the fruit and ensuring a long, balanced finish.
