Riedel Performance Glasses

Riedel Microfibre Crystal Cloth 5010/07 - 1 pcs.

Item no.: 22227865489-18-10-07

Crystal glass shows every spot and every water mark if it's dried the wrong way. Riedel Microfibre Crystal Cloth is the cloth designed specifically to give the glass the streak-free shine it deserves after a wash.
The Expert’s Description
Riedel Microfibre Crystal Cloth is a polishing cloth from the Austrian glassmaker Riedel, made from microfibre and designed specifically to dry and polish crystal glass without leaving streaks or lint.
The cloth is a natural companion to any of Riedel's glasses, whether it's one of the machine-blown tumblers or one of the more delicate, hand-blown pieces, and it belongs in the cupboard right next to the glass collection itself.
Design & Material
The microfibres are woven fine enough to lift moisture and grease from the surface without scratching the glass, unlike ordinary kitchen towels, which can easily leave lint or micro-scratches on a thin-walled crystal glass. The cloth is soft to hold and can be used again and again.
Use & Care
Use the cloth dry, right after the glass has been hand washed, and polish with light, circular motions until the surface is clear and streak-free. The cloth itself can be washed at a low temperature without fabric softener, so the microfibres keep their ability to absorb moisture.

Did You Know?
Did you know crystal glass is softer and more porous than ordinary glass, which makes it more prone to scratches from coarse cloths or paper towels? That's exactly why Riedel developed its own microfibre cloth for the purpose.

Riedel Performance Amadeo Decanter 1756/19

Item no.: 22227865489-18-1756-19

Wine spills into the wide belly of the glass and opens up as the rounded neck catches the light from the table lamp. It rarely takes long before the aroma of ripe berries and spice reaches all the way around the table.
The Expert's Description
The Riedel Performance Amadeo Decanter 1756/19 is a wine decanter from the Austrian glasshouse Riedel, made from crystal glass and designed to give powerful red wines air and volume before they are poured.
The Amadeo shape is one of Riedel's most recognisable decanter silhouettes - a wide, almost hand-cut-looking belly that narrows towards a short neck. In the Performance version, the decanter is machine-blown in crystal glass, which makes it more robust in everyday use than its hand-blown siblings in the Sommeliers and Black Tie lines, without giving up the large surface the wine needs to breathe through. Looking for a specific wine style to fill the decanter with? See also our range of Red Wine.
Use & Recommendation
The decanter is primarily intended for powerful red wines, where aeration softens the tannins and releases more layers of aroma - decant for 30-60 minutes before serving. The Performance glasses and decanters in the line are dishwasher safe, but always use the machine's gentle programme to keep the crystal clear for years to come.

Riedel Performance Cabernet 6884/0 - 2 pcs.

Item no.: 22227865489-18-6884-0

A glass with plenty of room at the bottom, where a powerful red wine can breathe and unfold its tannins before it reaches your tongue. The shape is no accident - it is drawn specifically for the big, dark grapes.
The Expert's Description
The Riedel Performance Cabernet 6884/0 is a red wine glass from the Austrian glasshouse Riedel, made from crystal glass and shaped specifically for full-bodied Cabernet and Bordeaux styles.
The bowl is large and wide at the top, giving a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon or Bordeaux blend room to breathe, while the slight narrowing towards the rim gathers the aromas before they reach the nose. The glass is machine-blown in crystal glass, a technique Riedel has refined to give machine-made glasses the same lift as hand-blown ones. Looking to fill the glass with a specific wine style? See also our range of Red Wine.
Use & Recommendation
The glass is built for full-bodied red wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Bordeaux blends and other tannin-rich grapes, where the large bowl gives the wine room to breathe. It is dishwasher safe and needs no special handling beyond ordinary care with crystal.

Did You Know?
It was Georg J. Riedel who designed the Vinum collection in 1986 - the first machine-made glass series that could match the lift of hand-blown crystal. The Performance line builds on the same idea, that the shape of the glass can draw more out of the wine.

Riedel Performance Champagne 6884/28 - 2 pcs.

Item no.: 22227865489-18-6884-28

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.

Riedel Performance Chardonnay Oaked 6884/97 - 2 pcs.

Item no.: 22227865489-18-6884-97

Vanilla, butter and toasted oak - a barrel-aged Chardonnay carries clear traces of the cask it has lived in. This glass is shaped to bring out those notes without drowning out the fruit itself.
The Expert's Description
The Riedel Performance Chardonnay Oaked 6884/97 is a white wine glass from the Austrian glasshouse Riedel, made from crystal glass and designed for barrel-aged, full-bodied Chardonnay wines.
The bowl is wider at the base than on the Sauvignon Blanc glass, giving room for the rounder, oak-driven notes of a barrel-aged Chardonnay - vanilla, butter and toasted nuts - without them overpowering the fruit. The glass is machine-blown in crystal glass.
Use & Recommendation
Use the glass for barrel-aged, full-bodied white wines such as oaked Chardonnay, but also other white wines that have matured on wood. The glass is dishwasher safe and can be washed in the machine without any issues.

Riedel Performance Pinot Noir 6884/67 - 2 pcs.

Item no.: 22227865489-18-6884-47

Pinot Noir is one of the most temperamental grapes to put in a glass - too delicate for a heavy glass, too complex for a small one. The Performance line's Pinot Noir glass is drawn for exactly that balance.
The Expert's Description
The Riedel Performance Pinot Noir 6884/67 is a red wine glass from the Austrian glasshouse Riedel, made from crystal glass and shaped for the delicate, aromatic Pinot Noir grape.
The Pinot Noir glass has one of the widest bowls in the line, giving the delicate grape maximum contact with air without washing away its aromas. The wide shape is a direct continuation of Riedel's classic Burgundy thinking, just in a machine-blown, more robust crystal glass version. Looking to fill the glass with a specific wine style? See also our range of Red Wine.
Use & Recommendation
The glass is drawn for Pinot Noir and other light to medium-bodied red wines such as Burgundy, where delicate aromas easily drown in the wrong glass. It is dishwasher safe and handles machine washing.

Riedel Performance Riesling 6884/15 - 2 pcs.

Item no.: 22227865489-18-6884-15

A crisp, floral Riesling needs a glass that holds on to the volatile aromas instead of letting them disappear straight away. The narrow opening does exactly that job.
The Expert's Description
The Riedel Performance Riesling 6884/15 is a white wine glass from the Austrian glasshouse Riedel, made from crystal glass and designed for aromatic, crisp white wines such as Riesling.
The bowl is slimmer and more upright than on the red wine glasses in the line, which holds on to Riesling's volatile, floral aromas and directs the acidity towards the centre of the tongue. The glass is machine-blown in crystal glass at Riedel's Austrian production, a method that makes the varietal-specific shapes more durable in everyday use than the hand-blown versions.
Use & Recommendation
Use the glass for aromatic, crisp white wines such as Riesling, but also Grüner Veltliner and other grapes with pronounced fruit acidity. The glass is dishwasher safe and can go straight into the dishwasher.

Riedel Performance Sauvignon Blanc 6884/33 - 2 pcs.

Item no.: 22227865489-18-6884-33

Green apple, gooseberry and a hint of freshly cut grass - a good Sauvignon Blanc has a whole register of fresh notes that the wrong glass can easily hide.
The Expert's Description
The Riedel Performance Sauvignon Blanc 6884/33 is a white wine glass from the Austrian glasshouse Riedel, made from crystal glass and designed for fresh, aromatic white wines such as Sauvignon Blanc.
The relatively narrow, tall bowl keeps Sauvignon Blanc's fresh citrus and gooseberry notes together, while the slight narrowing at the top directs the aroma straight towards the nose before it has time to disappear. The glass is machine-blown in crystal glass.
Use & Recommendation
The glass suits fresh, aromatic white wines such as Sauvignon Blanc, but also works well for other citrus- and herb-driven white wines. It is dishwasher safe and can be washed in the machine.

Riedel Performance Syrah 6884/41 - 2 pcs.

Item no.: 22227865489-18-6884-41

Black pepper, dark berries and a touch of smoke. A Syrah from the Rhône Valley or Barossa needs a glass that gives the powerful aromas room to spread without letting the alcohol take over.
The Expert's Description
The Riedel Performance Syrah 6884/41 is a red wine glass from the Austrian glasshouse Riedel, made from crystal glass and designed for powerful, spicy red wines such as Syrah and Shiraz.
The bowl is tall and relatively wide, giving a powerful Syrah or Shiraz room to unfold its dark berry and pepper notes without the alcohol dominating the picture. The glass is machine-blown in crystal glass - Riedel's way of making the varietal-specific shape available in a more durable version than the hand-blown glasses. Looking to fill the glass with a specific wine style? See also our range of Red Wine.
Use & Recommendation
Use the glass for powerful, spicy red wines such as Syrah, Shiraz and other dark, peppery grapes. The glass is dishwasher safe and just as robust in everyday use as it is elegant on the table.

Riedel Performance Tasting Set 5884/47-19 - 4 pcs

Item no.: 22227865489-18-5884-47-19

Four glasses, four shapes, four completely different ways to meet a wine. Line them up at a tasting, and the difference between a heavy Cabernet and a light Sauvignon Blanc becomes obvious long before you take the first sip.
The Expert's Description
The Riedel Performance Tasting Set 5884/47-19 is a set of 4 pieces varietal-specific wine glasses from the Austrian glasshouse Riedel, made from crystal glass and put together to cover the four most common wine styles for a tasting.
The set brings together four of the Performance line's most-used glasses in one package: Cabernet/Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Each glass is machine-blown in crystal glass and has its own bowl shape, drawn for that specific grape - from the wide Pinot Noir bowl to the slimmer Sauvignon Blanc shape - so you can line the glasses up and feel the difference directly. Want to find the red wines the set is designed to highlight? See also our range of Red Wine.
Use & Recommendation
The set is designed for tastings where you want to compare several wine styles at once - line the four glasses up side by side, pour the same amount into each, and experience how the glass shape changes how the wine smells and tastes. All four glasses are dishwasher safe.
