wine description
Sommeliers Riesling Grand Cru | Riedel
Stuart Pigott, English wine journalist with a preference for Riesling, realized a dream. The very best Rieslings of the 1990 vintage (exclusively dry Spätlese) were carefully selected and collected for a tour. After the white grape variety Chardonnay dominated the taste profile due to new plantations worldwide, the Riesling was supposed to prove its qualities for journalists in Paris, London and New York. The right glass was also necessary for this. Riedel sent suggestions from the existing range, and the choice fell on a red wine glass developed for Sangiovese (Chianti). Pigott and his winemakers had defined this shape as ideal in tastings from different glasses. They were particularly impressed by the varietal, pure fragrance intensity (peach) that Rieslings of the late harvest gradation show in this glass.
