Sommeliers Rheingau
Because of their characteristics, white wines from northern wine-growing regions (Mosel, Rheingau, Franconia, Weinviertel) come into their own in this glass shape. "Resche" (light - dry) wines with a lot of acid and delicate fruit achieve their special development in this aesthetic form with "acid spoiler" (lip of the mouth edge). Through a reflex controlled from the subconscious, this glass shape causes the tip of the tongue to rise so that the wine, guided as a fine stream, has contact with it first. The taste buds, which respond to sweets, are concentrated there, so that the fruit of the wine is particularly emphasized. Furthermore, the tip of the tongue is temperature-sensitive and highly sensitive to touch. The taste of the wine is thus strongly influenced by the function of the glass. Young white wines are served cold and have the finest carbonic acid fermentation residues, which are perceived as slightly sparkling on the tip of the tongue. The pronounced Acid is packed into the taste experience and is therefore perceived as typical and pleasant. The sour-tasting edge of the tongue has no contact with the wine due to the slim flow from this shape. The wine quickly reaches the end of the tongue, where pleasant tones of bitter almonds round off and prolong the pleasure in the finish and aftertaste of the wine.
