WHY SHAPE MATTERS?
CORRECT SHAPE:
For Syrah/Shiraz
Delivers the full story of the wine! Maximises the aroma, achieves the best balance on the palate, and achieves a long finish.

INCORRECT SHAPE:
For Syrah/Shiraz
Turns a good wine into a bad experience. Aroma is either compressed or diffused, and the taste is harsh and off-balance.
