Riedel Veritas Old World Pinot Noir 6449/07 - 2 pcs.

Old World Pinot Noir is delicate and complex - earthy, bright with acidity, and its aromas fade quickly. This glass's wide, rounded bowl is shaped to capture exactly those nuances before they disappear.

The Expert's Description

Riedel Veritas Old World Pinot Noir is a set of two machine-blown red wine glasses from the Austrian glassmaking house Riedel, made from crystal glass and shaped for elegant, earthy Old World Pinot Noir, such as red Burgundy. The glass belongs to Veritas, Riedel's newest and thinnest machine-blown collection.

Design & Material

The wide, low bowl gives Pinot Noir's delicate aromas maximum surface to unfold, while the narrowed opening holds on to the fleeting notes of forest floor, cherry and spice instead of letting them dissipate. The glass is blown in the same thin crystal as the rest of the Veritas range.

Use & Recommendation

The glass is built for Old World Pinot Noir, such as red Burgundy, but also suits other light, high-acid reds. It's dishwasher safe, though a gentle wash with mild detergent keeps it looking its best for longer. If you need the right bottle to go with it, take a look at our range of Red Wine.

Did You Know?

Before 1986, varietal-specific wine glasses were something only hand-blown crystal could deliver. With the Vinum collection, Georg Riedel got machines to match that same precision - making the concept available to far more people than the few who could afford hand-blown glass.
