Riedel Ouverture Champagne 6408/48 - 2 pcs.

There's something special about the sound of bubbles rising in a glass of Champagne. The Riedel Ouverture Champagne is the simple, everyday take on the classic Champagne glass.

The Expert's Description

The Riedel Ouverture Champagne 6408/48 is a machine-blown Champagne glass in crystal glass from Riedel, shaped to hold on to the bead in sparkling wines. The glass belongs to the Ouverture collection, Riedel's most accessible range, which makes grape- and drink-specific glass design something everyone can fill their cupboard with, without compromising on function.

Design & Material

The elongated bowl with a narrow opening holds on to the bubbles longer than a wide glass would, while still leaving enough room for the Champagne's aroma to develop. The crystal glass is machine-blown, giving a consistent finish from glass to glass.

Use & Recommendation

Use the glass for Champagne and other sparkling wine, on weeknights and at celebrations alike. It's dishwasher safe, which is handy if you open a bottle of bubbles more often than just at Christmas and New Year.
