Riedel : Verre Véloce Riesling

The richness and precision of Riesling highlighted by a glass from Riedel

The glassmaker

Masters of the delicate art of glassmaking, the Riedel family forms a true dynasty spanning 11 generations, each more talented than the last. For 260 years, this family has been crafting crystal glassware in Austria that showcases the unique style of wines and, more recently, the aromatic diversity of grape varieties.

The glass

Designed in 2022 using cutting-edge technology and pure crystal, this Riedel Veloce Riesling glass magnifies the balance between high acidity and the residual sugars of fruity white wines. With its diamond shape, reimagined for this collection, this glass reveals throughout the tasting the characteristics imparted by this grape variety—namely freshness, minerality, and a beautiful fruit-driven aromatic profile.
