After a life-changing experience in Sydney, the Qwoff Boys brought some glasses back to HQ to try it again - 3 different wines, 3 different glasses, to see what sort of impact the right glass can have on a wine, and the results are disturbing!
I certainly agree that the glass is really important ..... having said that though, when comparing glasses, it is also important to use the right proportion of wine based on the size of the glass! The Cab Sav glass needed heaps more wine in it that the other 2 to be fair. Also really important is that the more you try the same wine the better it feels, as you start getting used to its taste and complexity. So the ones you try last will certainly have an advantage!
Can i just ask.. if its riedel pronounced ree-dell, then is Riesling - pronounced Rees-ling? i want to pronounce it as that but everyone i know insists on saying 'rye-sling' ? thanks guys, great vid always :)
