WINE Perfection Cabernet Bouquet The small break in the bowl outlines Perfection’s character and functionality: A pouring line to ensure that the glass is filled with the correct quantity helps the wine develop its flavour and fragrance. Technically, Perfection is a fully moulded glass. That is, in one piece with a drawn stem, giving the glass extraordinarily high strength. Anyone can pull the cork from a bottle. Making its content open up, taming the bouquet and showing the wine’s true format, that’s Perfection. A good wine glass heightens the experience and helps the wine produce its properties in the best light. Cabernet is about eyes, nose and palate, but it’s a pleasure for your fingertips, too. Peter Svarrer rises to the occasion with a keen eye for the aesthetic experience. Cabernet is a perfect shape, moulded in one piece with a drawn stem. The tulip shape gives space to fling the wine without letting the bouquet leave the glass. With stylish lightness, Cabernet combines a classic shape with feminine elegance, making the glassware easy to be around, be it the grand setup or on a humble weekday. Bouquet is a term borrowed from the world of wine addressing the fragrance of a wine that has aged in the bottle. For connoisseurs, it is part of the enjoyment to employ your nose before the glass is fed to your lips. With Bouquet, Peter Svarrer has created a contemporary form that plays with your senses as a tribute to the ceremony around wine tasting. A wide base ensures ample space for the wine to aerate, while the sloping walls close in on the bouquet, leaving room for your nose. The shape is created in one piece with a pulled stem for high robustness.
