Riedel Wine Tumbler O Champagne 0414/28 - 2 pcs.

A champagne flute on a stem has a habit of tipping over just as New Year's Eve really gets going. Riedel took the classic champagne glass and removed exactly that weakness, without compromising on the bubbles.

The Expert's Description

Riedel Wine Tumbler O Champagne 0414/28 is a champagne glass in crystal glass from the Austrian glassmaker Riedel, shaped without a stem for sparkling wine and champagne.

The glass breaks with the classic flute shape and instead borrows from The O range's wide, stemless bowl. That gives the champagne more room to develop its aroma, while the glass's sturdy base makes it a safe choice for festive occasions where it gets refilled many times over the course of the evening.

Design & Materials

The bowl is wider than a traditional flute, giving the champagne more surface area to develop its aromas, while the narrower rim still holds onto the bubbles. The glass is machine-blown in crystal glass and stemless, making it one of the sturdiest champagne glasses in Riedel's range.

Use & Recommendation

The glass is designed for champagne and other sparkling wine, where you want both bead and aroma in play. It is dishwasher safe, so it holds up to being used again and again at parties, without you having to worry about fragile stems.
