Welcome to Fresh Product Tuesday. This week, we’re swirling, swishing and sniffing with Baccarat’s Château Collection Crystal Red Wine Glass. Can a glass truly affect a wine’s taste? According to journalist, educator and Master of Wine Debra Meiburg, "Of course any glass would work. But just as you would prefer not to drink your coffee in a paper cup, it's always nicer to have the right quality of glass." *

Baccarat’s revolutionary crystal red wine glass, from their new Château Collection, is already winning praise from serious oenophiles (wine aficionados) since its introduction in the high-end wine tasting arena earlier this year. Developed with oenologist Bruno Quenioux, Baccarat designed the Chateau Collection to revolutionize the savoring of fine vintages for all palates by taming the alcohol in wine.

This tulip-shaped glass has a broad base that evokes the tastevin, a saucer-like cup used by winemakers and sommeliers to taste wines, sloping sides and an unusually narrow lip at the end of a vertical "chimney" that prevents the alcohol from overpowering other aromas since it sinks down when the glass is swirled prior to tasting.

Considered by many connoisseurs to be the “Rolls-Royce” of wine glasses, Baccarat’s new glassware intensifies the flavor, preserves the subtle aromas and allows the wine to retain all its smoothness and aromatic body. In addition to being comfortable for the lips, Baccarat’s red wine glass is handcrafted in full-lead crystal and dishwasher safe in the gentle cycle. 

Redeem today for a tastier tipple.
