These Riedel Vinum Bordeaux Glasses (set of 4 glasses) and stemless Riedel O Viognier Glasses (set of 4 tumblers) are a great value way to fill out your Vinum collection& O collections. The Riedel Vinum Bordeaux Glasses are perfect for young, full-bodied (more than 12 percent alcohol), complex red wines that are high in tannin. This glass smoothes out the rough edges, emphasizing the fruit, allowing wines to achieve a balance that would normally take years of ageing to acquire.
The generous size of this glass allows the bouquet to develop fully. The shape directs the flow of wine onto the zone of the tongue which perceives sweetness, thus accentuating the fruit and de-emphasizing the bitter qualities of the tannin. The Riedel O Viognier Glasses look modern and are easy and comfortable to hold and fit easily into your dishwasher of course while they have the added benefit of being much more difficult to knock over. A double set is a great way to start your Riedel collection, so a fantastic starting point is this set of Riedel Vinum Bordeaux Glasses (set of 4 glasses) and stemless Riedel O Viognier Glasses (set of 4 tumblers).
