Riedel Performance Sauvignon Blanc 6884/33 - 2 pcs.

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.
