kõrge ja suure kupaosaga veiniklaas, mida kasutatakse eelkõige täidlaste ja tanniinirikaste punaveinide, aga ka täidlaste ja struktuursete valgete veinide serveerimiseks

Rusikareegli järgi võib valida erinevatele marjasortidele klaasi järgnevalt: Bordeaux päritolu viinamarjasortidele, nagu Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Sauvignon Blanc – bordeaux– tüüpi veiniklaas.Burgundia klassikalistele marjasortidele – Pinot Noir ja Chardonnay sobib üldjuhul burgundia-tüüpi veiniklaas. Chardonnay puhul on oluline sel juhul veini tammevaadis laagerdamine. Kui Chardonnay on värske karakteriga nagu näiteks Chablis, siis tuleks see serveerida aga bordeaux-tüüpi klaasis. Värsked ja puuviljase iseloomuga veinide nagu Riesling, Chenin Blanc, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Grigio Sangiovese jt serveerimisel soovitaks kasutada samuti bordeaux-tüüpi klaasi, mis on ka enamlevinud klaasi tüüp.
What is Bordeaux Glass? A Bordeaux glass is a tall, stemmed red-wine glass with a broad bowl designed specifically for full-bodied, tannic reds such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. Its signature feature is the way it directs wine to the back of the mouth, in contrast to the Burgundy glass, which sends wine to the tip of the tongue. The wider bowl increases oxygen exposure, encouraging the oxidation of phenolic compounds — tannins and aromatic molecules — that gives complex reds their depth and balance. For Bordeaux-style wines, this combination of shape and surface area is not a stylistic flourish but a tool that shapes how the wine smells and tastes in the glass.
