Riedel Performance Champagne 6884/28 - 2 pcs.

Bubbles rise through a glass that looks more like a wine glass than a classic flute - because at Riedel, champagne is about more than bubbles alone.

The Expert's Description

The Riedel Performance Champagne 6884/28 is a champagne glass from the Austrian glasshouse Riedel, made from crystal glass and shaped like a wine glass rather than a traditional flute.

Instead of the long, narrow flute, Riedel has given the champagne glass a bowl that resembles a white wine glass. The larger surface gives the bubbles more room to release aroma without the champagne losing its freshness. The glass is machine-blown in crystal glass. Looking to fill the glass with something sparkling? See also our range of Champagne & Sparkling Wine.

Use & Recommendation

The glass is designed for champagne and other quality sparkling wines, where you want more from the aroma than a traditional flute gives you. It is dishwasher safe and handles machine washing without any issues.
