- Six glasses for young, full-bodied red wines
- Glass design enhances taste of wines such as Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Rioja
- Machine-made, 24-percent lead crystal
- Made in Bavaria by world’s premier wine glass maker
- 8-7/8 inches tall; capacity of 21-1/2 ounces
Product Description What can we learn from a Riedel (rhymes with “needle”) glass? That size matters, as does shape? That form following function has meaning for wine-lovers as well as designers? Or perhaps the deeper lesson that the contents of an outwardly “plain” glass may provide a more sensual, complex, and rewarding experience than those of a superficially beautiful one? The Austrian Riedel family has been involved with glass-making since 1756, but it was two centuries later that Claus Riedel conceptualized a glass made specifically to enhance the flavors and aromas of a designated wine. Through an involved process each style of glass is crafted to accentuate the strengths, while minimizing the weaknesses, of a particular spirit. This is done through changes in the size and shape of the bowl, the diameter of the opening and the cut and polished lip which directs the wine towards a specific area of the tongue. Small wonder Riedel stems are preferred by sommeliers and oenophiles world wide for their ability to transform the perception of a wine.Amazon.com Review Austria’s Riedel is the world’s premier manufacturer of wine glasses. Made of 24-percent lead crystal, the Vinum series of glasses are the first machine-made wine glasses to be developed uniquely for each type of wine. Since their introduction in 1986, these wine glasses have had a large influence on the wine culture.
The glasses in this set of six were specifically shaped to highlight the fruit in young, full-bodied red wines with high levels of tannin, such as Bordeaux, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Rioja, and Tempranillo. The mouths of the Bordeaux glasses draw wine to the areas of the tongue that perceive sweetness, emphasizing the fruit and mellowing the acidity. The large bowls provide room for the wine’s rich bouquet to unfold. Each glass stands 8-7/8 inches high and holds 21-1/2 ounces of wine. –Cristina Vaamonde
