Riedel Extreme Rosé / Champagne 4441/55 - 2 pcs.

Designing one glass that works for both a dry rosé and a lively glass of Champagne isn't a simple brief. Riedel solved it with a single shape in the Extreme collection.

The Expert's Description

The Riedel Extreme Rosé/Champagne 4441/55 is a machine-blown glass in crystal glass from Riedel, designed for both rosé wine and Champagne in the same bowl shape. It's an unusual solution within the Extreme collection, where most glasses are shaped for a single grape variety, but here Riedel chose a form that supports both the fresh fruit of a rosé and the bubbles in a glass of Champagne. If you're after the bubbles to go with it, take a look at our range of Champagne & Sparkling Wine.

Design & Material

The bowl is narrower than the red wine glasses in the collection but wider than a classic Champagne flute, giving space to both the fruit of a rosé and the bubbles of a Champagne without either drink losing out. The glass is machine-blown crystal glass, giving a consistent weight and thickness.

Use & Recommendation

Use the glass for dry rosé wines, where the fruit needs to come through clearly, or for Champagne and other sparkling wine, when you want a glass with a bit more bowl than a traditional flute. It's dishwasher safe, making it easy to use both every day and for celebrations.

Did You Know?

Designing one glass for two drinks as different as still rosé and sparkling Champagne is a balancing act - too much bowl, and the bubbles fade too fast; too little, and the rosé's aromas don't get room to open. The shape of this glass is Riedel's answer to that balance.
