“RIEDEL Veritas” Old World Pinot Noir glass – a refined choice for elegant, lighter-bodied red wines.
The crystal “RIEDEL Veritas” Old World Pinot Noir glass is designed for subtle red wines with higher acidity and moderate tannins. Its distinctive balloon-shaped bowl allows complex aromas to gather and unfold, while softening the wine’s acidity and bringing greater harmony and smoothness to the palate. This shape particularly enhances fruit expression and reveals even the most delicate nuances.
This glass is ideally suited for grape varieties and styles such as ‘Pinot Noir’ from Old World regions including Pommard, Volnay, Vosne-Romanée, Chambolle-Musigny, Nuits-Saint-Georges or Echézeaux, as well as ‘Gamay’. It helps preserve the elegance of these wines, emphasizes their aromatic complexity, and refines overall balance.
The “RIEDEL Veritas” series, introduced in 2014, was created to once again raise the standard of wine glassware. 10th-generation Riedel family member Georg J. Riedel, together with a team of engineers, developed a collection that stands out for its lightness, aesthetics, and precision, tailored for the modern wine enthusiast. These are premium-quality glasses, offering an exceptional balance between functionality and design.
The glasses are made of clear crystal and are dishwasher safe, making them a practical choice for both everyday use and special occasions or tastings. An elegant solution for those seeking specialized glassware for subtle, aromatic red wines.
The set includes 6 glasses.
Height: 235 mm. Capacity: 738 ml.
A history of innovation spanning more than 265 years — the RIEDEL brand is a market leader for good reason. Claus Riedel was the first person in the industry to recognise that the shape of the glass from which a drink is consumed influences its taste and aroma. Backed by decades of research and development, it has been proven that a specific shape, tailored to a specific type of beverage, reveals the drink's depth, brings out its truest qualities, and elevates the tasting experience to an even higher level of enjoyment. Claus Riedel is regarded as the inventor of the functional wine glass, an achievement that revolutionised the industry. RIEDEL stands for long-standing tradition, an innovative approach to presenting wine and other beverages, and Austrian quality.
