Description

Tasting Notes Fine wine deserves fine glassware. Riedel's Performance glassware is described as “the new ultimate loudspeaker for fine wine”. So when you've got wine that's worth making some noise about turn up the volume with the Performance range. The Performance range was developed using the research from three generations of the Riedel family to improve the organoleptic (sensory) wine experience. Each item features a fine laser-cut rim and a unique optical effect that not only creates a pleasing visual but also increases the inner surface allowing the wine to open up and fully show its subtle aromatics and nuances. The decanter was introduced to complement the range. Designed for a single bottle of wine, it makes a stunning centrepiece to any table. The Riedel family can trace their trade in luxury glassware back to Johann Cristoph born in 1673. Now in the hands of the 11th generation Maximilian Josef Riedel, this multi-award-winning family-run business has become as entwined with the world of fine wine as the vines themselves. Combining science, the experience of some of the world's finest palates and a pinch of magic, they design their glorious glasses to enhance the bouquet, texture, flavour, finish and pleasure delivered by specific grape varieties. Anyone lucky enough to attend one of their wine glass tasting events will be converted for life. The adage of having 'the right tool for the right job' has never been more fitting than when enjoying wine from a Riedel.
