Riedel Sommeliers Black Tie Burgundy Grand Cru Glass, Packed in a Gift Tube

This Burgundy Grand Cru glass was described by Decanter magazine as "The finest Burgundy glass of all time, suitable for both young and old Burgundies" and is designed for Pinot Noir, Nebbiolo, Beaujolais Cru, and red Burgundy. With a 37-ounce capacity, the large bowl allows the bouquet to develop, then narrows to a flared rim for controlled delivery that perfectly balances the acidity and fruit flavors. The glass is also on permanent display in the New York Museum of Modern Art, so it holds an important a place in history as well as in the home. It comes cleverly packaged in a sleek black and red gift tube. Because crystal is course and porous to best intensify flavors, Riedel recommends protecting it by hand washing. --Kara Karll
