Riedel Wine Glasses

Riedel carries such a wide variety of wine glass styles with such varying characteristics, styles, uses, and prices, that the average shopper may have trouble narrowing down which glasses would suit them well and favor the wine the best. Below is a descriptive run-down of what makes each of the Ridel lines different.

Sommelier -

Sommelier glasses are considered the creme de la creme of the Riedel lines of wine glasses. These are the glasses with the reputation for being scientifically attuned to the wine taster's palate, and are certainly the priciest glasses Ridel offers, usually selling for over $300 for a set of four. The hand-blown glasses have been in production since 1973 and contains 24% lead crystal. A wide variety of sizes and shapes are available.http://www.vintagecellars.com/riedel-sommelier

Vinum -

The Vinum glasses are machine-made (instead of hand-blown) and were made by Riedel for mass marketing. Restaurants and homes alike may stock Vinum glasses, which contain 24% lead crystal.http://www.vintagecellars.com/riedel-vinum

Vinum Extreme -

Much like the regular Vinum series, these glasses are machine-blown and value-priced. The line was created in 2000 as a complement to "new world" wines, such as pinot noir and sauvignon blanc. Like the Vinum series, these glasses also contain 24% lead crystal.http://www.vintagecellars.com/riedel-vinum-extreme

Ouverture -

This is the most basic of Riedel lines, and also is available for the lowest cost, usually. The glasses are machine-blown and are lead-free.http://www.vintagecellars.com/riedel-ouverture The line ...
