The Ravenscroft Amplifier glasses are unmatched in their ability to magnify the bouquet of any wine, focusing and intensifying the bouquet. If the bouquet is world class, the experience will be breathtakingly intense. But if a wine contains flaws such as excessive alcohol, Brettanomyces, or oxidation, they will be presented as such without pity. However, be warned: drinking from Ravenscroft Amplifiers is a learned skill. Nevertheless, like mastering any powerful tool, the reward far outweighs any necessary effort. Be patient with the Amplifier glasses and just remember that not drinking your best wines in an Amplifier is simply a shame.
Young wines that have not been aged in oak usually are also not treated with the malolactic fermentation procedures used in slightly more mature white wines. These wines do not have the buttery aroma associated with mature whites, as the conversion of acid within the procedure which gives off the rich aroma does not take place. Younger unoaked wines, then are much sweeter than their mature counterparts, often with fruity flavors, and altogether softer wine. A suitable glass for the experienced connoisseur, then, needs three basic elements: a wide bowl, tapering sides, and a medium sized opening. The Unoaked White Wine glass from Ravenscroft's Amplified Pro line includes all of these elements. The wide flare of the 16 ounce capacity bowl allows the aromas of the wine to mix well before beginning the ascent. Tapered sides funnel the bouquet to the opening, where the pleasing scent of fine whites differentiates them from lesser wines. Finally, the opening will channel the wine to the tip of the palate, where the sweet tastes can be best appreciated
