Riedel Crystal, which began producing glass in Europe in 1756, was the first company to develop a series of glasses in different shapes and sizes designed to match various types of wine. All of the major series of glasses in the Riedel line are designed to enhance the wine-tasting experience, revealing the wine’s nuances and full bouquet. The size and shape of each glass, tailored to a specific grape varietal, highlight particular flavors by directing where the wine first meets the palate’s taste zones, thus bringing the wine into perfect balance. These glasses expose a larger surface area of the wine to oxygen, allowing the wine to open up and mature, releasing its full aroma.
Riedel glasses provide a superb wine experience, showing off each wine’s brilliant color, taste and aroma.
