Vinum |

View the entire Vinum Collection |
Introduced in 1986, Vinum was the first machine-made
series of glasses in history to be based exclusively
on the characteristics of quality, reasonably price
and wide distribution. The shape of the Riedel Vinum
wine glass is so very important, as it concentrates
the flavor and aroma (or bouquet) to emphasize the varietal's
characteristic. The shape of the Riedel Vinum wine glass
also directs the wine itself into the best area of the
mouth for the varietal. The stem of a Riedel Vinum wine
glass is also an important feature as it provides a
way to hold the glass without warming the wine from
body heat. It also prevents fingerprints from smearing
the glass and makes the glass easier to swirl. Riedel
Vinum has had a permanent impact on the world’s
wine glass culture. Riedel Vinum wine glasses have proved
to consumers and restaurateurs that the pleasure of
consuming wine starts with the glass.

"O" Series |

View the entire Riedel "O" Collection |
Maximilian Riedel (11th generation) presents his first
glass series. The Riedel connoisseur will be surprised
to find that this new glass series has something missing
- there is no stem or base. So what is "O"?
Riedel "O" is the new innovative take on the
wine tumbler. In short: "O" is the ideal glass
for every day use and for every occasion. It is fun,
feels good to hold, looks trendy and it works! The designs
of "O" are based on the benchmark shapes of
Riedel Vinum. For the first time in glass history the
design parameters such as shape of tumbler, size and
diameter of rim, have been finely-tuned to enhance the
world's most important grape varietals. "O"
is available as: Cabernet/Merlot, Pinot/Nebbiolo, Syrah/Shiraz,
Chardonnay, Viognier/Chardonnay, Riesling/Sauvignon.
The tumbler, used for centuries as an all-round drinking
vessel, is now turned into a sophisticated wine accessory.
Maximilian Riedel has created something brand new with
"O" without losing sight of his "roots".

First developed in 1973 by Claus Riedel and further
expanded by his son Georg, Riedel Sommeliers hand-made
wine glasses are considered the benchmark which all
other wine glasses are measured. Each glass is individually
made: the upper parts are blown into a mould, the stem
and base are hand-crafted using methods dating back
over 2000 years. Riedel’s glass-makers invest
their talent, know-how and meticulous craftsmanship
in making glasses of the impeccable quality the world
has come to expect.

Riedel Vitis Wine Glasses are the pinnacle of modern
stemmed-glass technology featuring highly sophisticated
grape varietal specific bowls on a pulled stem. As Riedel’s
tallest machine made lead crystal stems, Riedel Vitis
Wine Glasses are a stunning aesthetic and technical
achievement. Harmonizing traditional glassmaking skills
with the latest technology, Riedel Vitis Wine Glass
stems are literally pulled from the bowl as they are
being made, creating a beautifully smooth transition
from bowl to base. This technique results in a much
stronger glass as only one joint; between stem and foot
is needed. Riedel Vitis Wine Glasses, as with all Riedel
glasses, are designed to emphasize and complement the
characteristics of each of the main grape varieties.
