The difference.
Suddenly a black wine glass came on the table. Let's try it, how does an excellent Valter Mlečnik's Sauvignonasse (ex Tokaj, Tocai Friulano) vintage 2007 taste from a black glass? This black glass was standing in a cupboard for a while, so it had to be rinsed first. Accidentally some wine has already been poured into the glass. To check if a spider or some other bug is swimming in it, we re poured it to standard transparent wine glass. Why don't we try to find most appropriate glass for this wine? Soon we had a small collection of five different shaped wine glasses in front of us.
Mlečnik's Sauvignonasse 2007 is a full, complex wine with smell of tropical fruit and a hint of herb mixture, very balanced, smooth in mouth. Must, for those who like natural wine. I'm sure also many of those who aren't into natural wine would like it.
The first glass from left to right was OK, but some aromas didn't come completely developed to expression
The second glass was the best for this wine. Whole range of aromas came to nose, nicely balanced with the taste.
The third glass was also very good, maybe a bit less intensive aromas.
The fourth glass emphasized more high volatile aromas, it seemed to me also more alcohol.
The fifth glass from left to right was at least appropriate, aromas did not develop as in previous glasses.
If you happen to have Mlečnik's Sauvignonasse 2007, for complete satisfaction I recommend to drink it from glass shaped like second or third from left to right.
Na zdravje! (Cheers!)
