Riedel Winewings Champagne 1234/28 - 1 pcs.

The bubbles rise slowly in a glass that breaks with the classic, narrow shape. Instead of a tight flute, the champagne meets a broad, wing-shaped bowl, where both mousse and aroma get room to unfold.

The Expert's Description

Riedel Winewings Champagne 1234/28 is a machine-blown champagne glass from the Austrian glassmaker Riedel, shaped with a broad, wing-like bowl designed to treat champagne as a proper wine rather than just bubbles.

Riedel has been making glass since 1756, and the family business is now run by its 11th generation of glassmakers and designers. Winewings is a rethink of the classic bowl shape, stretched outward instead of upward. For champagne, the broad surface means the complex aromas from fermentation can develop in the glass, while the sparkling bubbles remain clearly visible and felt.

Design & Material

The glass is made from clear crystal glass with no tint. The wide, wing-shaped bowl is the signature feature, built to give the aromas of champagne room, while the slender stem keeps your hand away from the bowl so the champagne stays cold for longer.

Use & Recommendation

The glass suits all styles of champagne and sparkling wine where you want both aroma and bubbles as part of the experience. Serve the champagne chilled, and pour a little less than you would into a standard wine glass, leaving room for the aromas to gather. The glass is dishwasher safe on a gentle cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions about Riedel Winewings Champagne 1234/28 - 1 pc.

Why is the Winewings Champagne glass wider than a classic champagne flute?

The broad, wing-shaped bowl gives the aromas of the champagne room to develop, just as in a standard wine glass, without losing the bubbles. This gives a more nuanced experience than the narrow, traditional flute.

Does the champagne stay cold and sparkling in this glass?

Yes. Serve the champagne chilled, and pour smaller amounts at a time. The wide bowl does not change how long the bubbles last, but it brings out the aromas far better than a narrow flute.

Can the glass also be used for other sparkling wines?

Yes, the glass works well for any sparkling wine, not just champagne. See our full range of Champagne & Sparkling Wine to find the right bottle.

Is the glass dishwasher safe?

Yes, the glass is dishwasher safe. Choose a gentle cycle so the thin crystal glass keeps its shine for years.
