Riedel Sommeliers Mature Bordeaux / Chablis / Chardonnay 21.6 cm
Tastings have demonstrated the incredible aging potential of classified Bordeaux wines. Even wines that were bottled and perfectly stored a hundred or more years ago are still in excellent condition today. Late-ripening grape varieties with their small thick-skinned berries produce extremely dense wines with massive tannins in good years, requiring long bottle aging to reach drinkability and enjoyment. Mature wines are characterized by tasting better than they smell.
The bouquet notes remind of mushrooms and forest floor. Sometimes the aromas can also be more stringent. Too large glasses would overemphasize these aromas.
For this reason, we recommend a glass of medium capacity for the pleasure of the palate. It concentrates the ripe fruit, gives spiciness to the wine through an emphasis on acidity, and shows the remaining tannin lively.
Recommended for: Bordeaux (matured), Zweigelt
