This is a video I put together for my buddy Ian Blackburn from Learnaboutwine.com Ian is a very talented Wine Educator and holds high-end events all over LA. He wanted to put something together for sponsors of his program Subzero, outlining the benefits of wine storage and how it differs from wine refrigeration. Shot on location at Snyder Diamond in Pasadena. B-Roll by WIll Roegge.
So last night my buddy Ian, the owner of Learnaboutwine.com, invited me to an event hosted by Max Riedel. Max gave the most informative presentation on why using the proper Riedel wine glass is ESSENTIAL. Both my girlfriend, Nicole, and I were amazed at the way the wine completely changed from glass to glass. We went from the proper varietal glass, to the wrong glass, to a plastic cup. I could not believe how the aroma, the taste and everything about the wine changed from glass to glass.
I am currently drinking Chardonnay out of this glass:
They describe the glass as “Offering a larger volume, the Vinum Montrachet glass reveals the intensity and the wine’s layers of aroma. The size of the bowl enables the rich bouquet to develop its wonderfully diverse range of aromas, emphasizing the finesse, while minimizing the risk of it becoming over-concentrated.” Very well said, and wow, the wine is good… Want more info on all the glasses?

Ian set me up with Max to shoot some photos, and here is the result. Nothing like having 5 minutes to set up and 3 minutes to shoot! All-in-all I think I got some decent shots considering…
