These Riedel Veloce Champagne Wine Glasses are designed with a practical purpose - to make your champagne taste better. With its diamond shape and thoughtful design, this glass helps your favourite sparkling wines show their full potential.
Handcrafted Quality, Machine Precision
These glasses look and feel handmade but are actually created by machines using advanced technology. This gives you the best of both worlds - the elegant look of handmade glass with the consistency and durability of machine production.
Elevated Design Elements
Inspired by Riedel's iconic Extreme collection, Veloce features:
- Taller, more elegant stems
- Finer bowls
- Thinner, more refined profile
- Impressive 100mm base
Why It Works Better
The diamond shape isn't just for looks - it gives aromas more space to develop than traditional flutes do. The wider bowl lets champagne breathe and reveals more complex flavours, while the larger rim helps release these aromas better. There's even a special 'sparkling point' at the bottom that helps create a steady stream of bubbles.
Practical Luxury
The Veloce (Italian for "fast") collection makes quality glassware more accessible. These glasses work best with light, fresh, dry champagnes, Proseccos and sparkling wines.
And yes, they're dishwasher safe - because nobody wants to hand-wash delicate glasses after a celebration.
