Riedel Wine Tumbler O Chardonnay / Viognier 0414/05 - 2 pcs.

A glass of Chardonnay on the terrace on a Saturday afternoon shouldn't require setting a fully formal table. It should simply carry the floral and stone-fruit notes the grape is known for, and this glass does that without any fuss.

The Expert's Description

Riedel Wine Tumbler O Chardonnay / Viognier 0414/05 is a white wine glass in crystal glass from the Austrian glassmaker Riedel, shaped without a stem for aromatic, full-bodied white wines such as Chardonnay and Viognier.

The glass belongs to The O range, where Riedel took the bowl shape from its acclaimed stemmed glasses and built it directly onto a solid, stemless base. That makes the glass just as suited to a relaxed afternoon on the terrace as to the dinner table, without compromising how the wine smells and tastes.

Design & Materials

The wide, rounded bowl gives room to Chardonnay's and Viognier's characteristic notes of ripe stone fruit and flowers, while the narrower rim holds onto the aroma. The glass is machine-blown in crystal glass and stemless, making it a sturdy choice when it needs refilling again and again.

Use & Recommendation

The glass is designed for full-bodied, aromatic white wines such as Chardonnay and Viognier, where the width of the bowl gives the wine room to develop. It is dishwasher safe, so it handles both everyday use and guests without extra thought.
