Riedel Veritas Oaked Chardonnay 6449/97 - 2 pcs.

A Chardonnay aged in oak needs a glass that can carry its broad, buttery notes of vanilla and toasted wood. This glass's spacious bowl gives the wine exactly the air it needs.

The Expert's Description

Riedel Veritas Oaked Chardonnay is a set of two machine-blown white wine glasses from the Austrian glassmaking house Riedel, made from crystal glass and shaped for full-bodied, oak-aged Chardonnay. The glass belongs to Veritas, Riedel's newest and thinnest machine-blown collection.

Design & Material

The bowl is wider and more spacious than the other white wine glasses in the range - a shape needed to carry the full, buttery notes of vanilla and toasted wood that oak ageing typically gives a Chardonnay. The glass is blown in the thin crystal that defines Veritas.

Use & Recommendation

The glass is built for full-bodied, oak-aged Chardonnay, but also works with other rich, creamy white wines. It's dishwasher safe, though a gentle cycle with mild detergent extends the shine.
