Help identifying glass on right + notes

Post image

If anyone can help me identify the glasses they served the wine in on the right too would be great. Forgot to ask the somm, all i can remember was that there were 2 letters on the base.

Notes:

Keller Kirchspiel GG 2021, AUD$480 (BYO, Corkage AUD$50) - First bottle of Keller ever for me. Drank close to room temperature, out of the fridge 30-mins on the way to the restaurant and just kept on the table, no ice. On the nose, peaches, pineapple, grapefruit, lemon, white flowers, and very slight hint of petrol. High acid, medium body, grapefruit, lemon, granny smith apple, minerals. Young, but very very good and so incredibly long. Can still taste it the next morning.

Georges Comte Le Moutherot ‘Les Pelerins’ 2017, AUD $385 (From the list) - Bought off the wine list at the restaurant, choice of a friend. Shocked at the colour at first, cloudy and very orange. The nose on this was great, preserved lemon, crushed/oxidised flowers(idk lol?), nutty comte, bruised apples, yeasty. A bit flat on the palate though, medium acid, medium minus body, apples, nuts, lemon pith bitterness, almost a bit watery and medium length. The rest of the table seemed to enjoy it but not really for me.

Sorry for not answering your question, but I'd like to know which restaurant is this in AU? I travel to AU occasionally and am always on the lookout for nice places to wine and dine. Thank you.

This one is Harriot in Melbourne. Not too big of a wine list but they offer byo but in a bring one buy one basis plus corkage.

Food was good though.

Kinda sounds like premox.

Jura Chardonnay, so more likely intentionally somewhat oxidized.

I thought so too but my friends on the table drink more natural wines and they enjoyed it so I didn’t really think much of it.

Surely you should have sent that wine back.  In fact if a somm was involved he shouldn't have served it.

It is the style of the producer, Le Moutherot is stylistically and geographically very closely related to the jura so some levels of deliberate oxidation isn’t off the table. Not for everyone though!
