Riedel Performance Riesling Glass 625ml (Set of 2)

The Riesling glass is ideal for balancing the high acidity and residual sweetness of fruity white wines. This design is an evolved version of RIEDEL's most versatile white wine glass. It harmonizes fresh flavours and high mineral notes, while the new, larger shape enhances the aromatic experience. Redesigned in 2018 as part of the Performance series, this glass takes wine aromatics to the next level.

Crafted from clear crystal glass, the RIEDEL Performance series is the first to feature bowls with a light optic impact, improving wine's bouquet. Co-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel, this premium machine-made collection combines advanced technology with ease of use, offering the precision and quality you'd expect from RIEDEL.

ABOUT RIEDEL

When developing a glass, RIEDEL's design ideas are not born on a drawing board, but shaped by trial and error with the help and support of the world's greatest palates. A person interested in wine is led by color, bouquet and taste, but often the glass is not considered as an instrument to convey the wine's message. Over the years, RIEDEL has acquired some interesting scientific explanations as to why the shape of a glass influences the bouquet and taste of alcoholic beverages. The first discovery was made while enjoying wine. The same wine displayed completely differently characteristics when served in a variety of glasses. The differences were so great that experienced connoisseurs were made to believe that they were tasting different wines. The grape variety is the key factor in determining the relationship between fruit, acidity, tannin and alcohol. As the next step, RIEDEL was able to create shapes in which the wine, vinified from specific grape varieties, seemed to improve. We started to recognize the complex role that size and shape play in conveying the message of a fine wine.
