Riedel Ouverture Magnum 6408/90 - 2 pcs.

Sometimes you just want one big, generous glass for a bold red wine, without wading through a whole shelf of specialist glassware. The Riedel Ouverture Magnum is the everyday collection's answer.

The Expert's Description

The Riedel Ouverture Magnum 6408/90 is a machine-blown red wine glass in crystal glass from Riedel with a larger bowl than the rest of the Ouverture collection. It still belongs to Riedel's most accessible range, but the larger volume makes it especially suited to full-bodied, powerful red wines that need extra room to breathe. Looking for a bottle to go with it, take a look at our range of Red Wine.

Design & Material

With a volume of 530 ml, the bowl is the largest in the Ouverture collection, giving bold red wines more room to develop aroma and flavour than the other Ouverture glasses can offer. The glass is machine-blown crystal glass with the same sturdy, everyday-friendly finish as the rest of the collection.

Use & Recommendation

Use the glass for full-bodied, powerful red wines that benefit from extra air, or simply when you want a generous glass of red wine on a weeknight. It's dishwasher safe and needs no special handling.
