Riedel Sommeliers Burgundy Grand Cru Glass
More info
The RIEDEL Sommeliers Burgundy Grand Cru glass is a masterpiece of wine glass design, meticulously crafted to enhance the delicate nuances of light-bodied red wines. Introduced in 1958 by Claus J. Riedel, this glass was among the first to embrace the principle that form follows function, aligning with the Bauhaus design philosophy.
Design and Functionality
Featuring a generous tulip-shaped bowl and a subtly flared rim, the glass accentuates the wine's sweetness while harmonizing its acidity and minimizing the perception of alcohol. This design allows the bouquet to fully develop, directing the wine to the front palate and creating a balanced, three-dimensional tasting experience.
Craftsmanship
Each glass is handmade from fine crystal by skilled artisans, ensuring a unique character in every piece. Due to the handcrafted nature, slight variations in size, weight, or the presence of tiny bubbles are normal and add to the glass's individuality. Despite its delicate appearance, the glass is dishwasher safe, combining elegance with practicality.Specifications
