Riedel - Performance Pinot Noir Wine Glass, Set of 2 - Clear

Give Pinot Noir and Burgundy the glass that honors their extraordinary aromatic depth with the Riedel Vinum Pinot Noir Wine Glass, Set of 2 (6416/07). Part of the world's first machine-made varietal specific glass series, designed in 1986 by 10th-generation Georg J. Riedel to bring varietal-specific performance to an accessible everyday price point. The large balloon-shaped bowl — 4-1/4" wide and 24-3/4 oz capacity — gives Pinot Noir and red Burgundy maximum surface area to aerate and develop their complex bouquet of cherry, earth, violet, spice, and forest floor aromas. The perfectly tapered shape then directs wine to the tip of the tongue, the zone most sensitive to sweetness, highlighting rich fruit-forward character while tempering the grape's naturally high acidity so it reads as lively and expressive rather than sharp. At 8-1/4" tall, this is an elegantly proportioned glass ideal for Pinot Noir, red Burgundy, Gamay, Beaujolais Cru, Barolo, and Barbaresco. Machine-made lead-free crystal. Dishwasher safe. Set of 2. From Riedel, crafting exceptional drinkware since 1756. Item 6416/07.

The Old World Pinot Noir glass is perfect for light-bodied red wines with high acidity and moderate tannin. The generous size of this glass allows the bouquet to develop fully, and smooths out the rough edges. It emphasizes the fruit, playing down the bitter qualities of the tannin, and allows wines to achieve balance. The revolutionary series RIEDEL Veritas debuted in 2014 to set the standard for glassware yet again. The brand's world class technicians were asked by 10th generation Georg J. Riedel to create a series that was visually stunning, a delight to hold, and price competitive. They accomplished their task with excellence; creating a wine glass collection for the 21st century. This item is premium machine-made.

Reveal the full intensity and layered complexity of oaked Chardonnay with the Riedel Performance Chardonnay Wine Glass (6884/97). Co-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel in 2018, this glass brings the Performance collection's groundbreaking optic impact technology to the world's most celebrated full-bodied white wine. The wide, open-mouthed bowl — the most generously proportioned in the Performance white wine lineup — gives the rich bouquet of oaked Chardonnay room to develop its superbly diverse range of aromas — smoky, toasty, buttery, mineral, and fruit-forward notes — while the optic impact pattern increases the inner surface area for greater aromatic revelation. The generous bowl volume is specifically sized to allow this complexity to develop while minimizing the risk of over-concentration — the critical balance challenge of full-bodied white wines that a smaller or narrower bowl fails to achieve. The shape emphasizes finesse over richness and supports multi-layered aromatic depth, delivering the kind of balanced, elegant expression that defines Montrachet, Meursault, Corton-Charlemagne, and the finest oaked Chardonnays from California and Burgundy. At 9-5/8" tall and approximately 24-26 oz capacity. Machine-made lead-free crystal. Dishwasher safe. Set of 2. Also recommended for Pouilly-Fuissé, Riesling Smaragd, and other full-bodied white wines. From Riedel since 1756. Item 6884/97.
