Experience Cabernet Sauvignon the way it was always meant to be experienced with the Riedel Winewings Cabernet Wine Glass (1234/0). Born in 2018 from a challenge to Georg Riedel to create the ultimate glass for Cabernet Sauvignon, the Winewings collection is the most radical departure in Riedel's design history — a flat, stretched, wing-shaped base inspired by the wing of an aircraft, complete with winglets. Where conventional wine glasses concentrate wine in a curved bowl, the Winewings' flat base dramatically increases the surface area between wine and air, accelerating evaporation and generating significantly greater aroma intensity. As Georg Riedel explains: when you position your nose to the glass, you are closer to the wine and exposed to its wider surface — a tangible, immediate difference in how completely a great Cabernet's bouquet reaches you. For Cabernet Sauvignon specifically, the shape emphasizes primary fruit aromas and minerality while softening the rough edges of high tannin, allowing full-bodied Cabernet, Bordeaux, Merlot, and St. Emilion wines to achieve elegant balance. At approximately 9.84" tall and 28 oz capacity, a glass with genuine authority for the serious wine lover. Machine-made lead-free crystal. Dishwasher safe. Sold individually. From Riedel since 1756. Item 1234/0.
BORN FROM A CHALLENGE TO CREATE THE ULTIMATE CABERNET GLASS — GEORG RIEDEL, 2018: In 2018 Georg Riedel was challenged to create the ultimate Cabernet Sauvignon glass — a year-long process of tastings and refinements that produced the revolutionary Winewings collection, the most radical departure in Riedel's design history across nearly 300 years of glassmaking.
REVOLUTIONARY FLAT WING-SHAPED BOTTOM — AIRCRAFT-INSPIRED FOR MAXIMUM AROMA INTENSITY: The flat, stretched, wing-shaped base inspired by an aircraft wing dramatically increases the surface area between wine and air, accelerating evaporation and generating significantly greater aroma intensity than a conventional rounded bowl — bringing the nose closer to the wine's full bouquet with every sip.
EMPHASIZES MINERALITY & PRIMARY FRUIT — SOFTENS TANNINS FOR PERFECT BALANCE: The Winewings Cabernet shape emphasizes minerality and primary fruit aromas while smoothing the rough edges of high tannin — allowing Cabernet Sauvignon, Bordeaux, Merlot, and St. Emilion wines to achieve the elegant balance between power and fruit that defines their finest expressions.
BRUTALLY FUNCTIONAL — FOR THE WINE LOVER WHO DEMANDS DEPTH & COMPLEXITY: Georg Riedel's own description of Winewings is "brutally functional" — a collection that prioritizes wine performance above all else, designed for the serious enthusiast who prefers wines with depth, complexity, and minerality and demands a glass that reveals all of it.
