Description of Waterford Connoisseur Gold Collection Pinot Noir PairBeautiful hand-made, mouth-blown Pinot Noir, Burgundy glass from Waterford Crystal. The large bowl allows the bouquet to develop to the full, while the slightly flared top lip maximizes the fruit flavors by directing a precise flow onto the front palate. Waterford's 2006 Connoisseur Gold crystal stemware collection showcases the ultimate in luxury and, quite literally, taste. The collection pairs each type of wine with a glass individually sized and shaped by experienced sommeliers to heighten the flavor and aroma of the liquid within. Voicing the opinion of many wine experts, the distinguished New York wine educator Charles Scicolone of I Tulli restaurant states, "The right glass is essential to the enjoyment of any wine or spirit. Waterford's Connoisseur Gold Collection glasses have been designed to meet the highest standards and will enhance any tasting experience." All Connoisseur Gold stemware is hand-crafted in Brazil of sparkling crystal. Skilled glassworkers blow the bowls by mouth and carefully pull the stems to Waterford's exacting standards, adding a gold band around the ankle of the impressively thin stem as the crowning touch. The Pinot Noir glass, standing 9-3/4 inches tall, features an oversized 34-ounce bowl designed specifically to allow distinctive red wines, such as Pinot Noir and Barbaresco, to breathe. In a departure from the classic tulip shape, the flared lip on this glass sends the wine directly to the front of the palate where the flavors are best appreciated. Beautifully balanced and exhibiting exceptional clarity, the pair makes a spectacular gift for the connoisseur. Like all fine crystal, the glasses should be washed by hand. --Ann Bieri
