RIEDEL Austria – one of the world’s biggest wine glasses companies, functional and elegant, from crystal and glass, handmade or mechanical as well as different shapes decanters. Professor Claus Riedel was the first designer that has noticed that the wines bouquet, taste, harmony and finesse are determined by the shape of the glass in which they are served. At the end of the 50’s, Riedel began to manufacture glasses that at that time started a real revolution in the designing world. Slim, supple coups reducing the design at its essence: coup, leg and base. Working with professional wine tasters, Riedel has discovered that the wine enjoyed from his glasses keeps its qualities for a longer time and is more balanced than if it is served from a normal glass. Riedel set the grounds for these glasses gamut, functional and elegant in the same time, shaped after Bachus’s principle: use determines shape. We invite you to share this fascinating and unique experience. You don’t have to be a wine critic, wine maker or an expert in order to feel the unique mark that imposes a Riedel glass. “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” declared Robert Parker. |
