The Syrah/Shiraz/Tempranillo glass is perfect for balancing the gripping tannins and concentrated fruit typical of medium-bodied red wines. On the palate, it brings out the wine's silky, velvety structure and balanced flavours. The tannins melt into the fruit, appearing sweet rather than acerbic on the back palate.

This shape was developed between 1993-1995 following sensory workshops in major Syrah and Shiraz growing regions. It is the most versatile RIEDEL shape for red wines, including Tempranillo.

With a slightly tapered opening, the large bowl develops intense aromas and mouthfilling fruit. It offers a dignified structure and long finish on the palate.
