Riedel Glassware
"The finest glasses for both technical and hedonistic purposes are those
made by Riedel. The effect of these glasses on fine wine is profound.
I cannot emphasize enough what a difference they make." (Robert M. Parker,
Jr. The Wine Advocate)
Professor Claus J. Riedel was the first designer
to recognize that the bouquet, taste, balance and finish of wines are
affected by the shape of the glass from which they are drunk.
Forty years ago he began his pioneering work to create stemware that would
match and complement different wines and spirits. In the late 1950s, Riedel
started to produce glasses which at that time were a design revolution.
Thin-blown, unadorned, reducing the design to its essence: Bowl, stem,
base.
