The defining innovation is the optic impact: a series of precision-pressed facets in the bowl that are both a design feature and a functional one. The facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl beyond what a smooth glass of equivalent volume provides, which means more wine in contact with more air at any given moment, faster aromatic development, and a more complete expression of the wine from an earlier point in the pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003ePerformance was co-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel and represents the first time Riedel has incorporated this light-refracting bowl technology into any of their ranges. The Cabernet\/Merlot shape at 834ml with a 105mm rim is calibrated specifically for Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Bordeaux blends: The large 105mm bowl allows the dense aromatic structure of Cabernet Sauvignon to open fully, with the optic impact faceting increasing surface area to accelerate aeration and reveal the secondary complexity beneath the primary fruit. Machine-made in lead-free crystal with long fine stems and large stable bases, certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles, and sold in sets of 6 for professional restaurant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eKey features of the Riedel Restaurant Performance Cabernet\/Merlot Glass:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptic impact faceted bowl:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision-pressed facets in the bowl increase the inner surface area, accelerating aromatic development and bringing forward the full complexity of the wine faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLarge 105mm bowl with optic impact faceting; designed to showcase structured, complex red wines\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel:\u003c\/strong\u003e The first Riedel series to incorporate optic impact bowl technology, developed through hands-on workshops with winemakers to validate the design for each varietal shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong fine stem and large stable base:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Performance aesthetic: elegant proportion with a practical base that resists tip-over on the restaurant table\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachine-made precision crystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel describes Performance as \"premium machine-made\" to reflect the precision consistency of the production process\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCovers Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Domina, Fronsac\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1,500-cycle dishwasher certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for sustained commercial restaurant service\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet of 6, trade-only:\u003c\/strong\u003e Restaurant-format case quantity; consumer versions available in sets of 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"qa-0884-0\" style=\"background: rgba(85,123,151,0.15); border-left: 4px solid #557B97; padding: 15px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 20px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 20px;\"\u003eWhat Restaurant Professionals Ask About This Glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eWhat exactly is the optic impact and how does it work?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe optic impact is a series of precision-pressed facets moulded into the bowl of the glass during production. They are visible as subtle ribs or ridges in the crystal that catch and refract light, which gives the bowl its distinctive visual character. Functionally, the facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl: more glass surface means more wine-to-air contact at any given liquid level, which accelerates the release of aromatic compounds and brings the wine's full aromatic complexity forward faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume. For a Cabernet\/Merlot with significant aromatic complexity, this is the difference between a wine that needs ten minutes in the glass to open and one that shows its full character from the first pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eHow does Performance compare to the standard Riedel Restaurant range?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eBoth ranges are machine-made and varietal-specific, but they operate at different levels. The Restaurant range (0446 series) is Riedel's benchmark commercial glass: well-designed, durable, correctly shaped for each variety, and priced for broad trade adoption. Performance adds the optic impact bowl technology, the co-design input of Georg and Maximilian Riedel specifically for the range, and a more refined aesthetic with the long fine stem and large stable base. It is the appropriate upgrade for operations where the wine programme is a significant part of the guest experience and where the glassware is expected to communicate that seriousness visually as well as functionally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eDoes the optic impact affect how the glass cleans in the dishwasher?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe facets do not trap residue or impair cleaning in a correctly maintained commercial dishwasher. The Performance range carries the same EN 12875-1\/2 certification for 1,500 cycles as other Riedel machine-made ranges. The one practical consideration is drying: the facets can hold water droplets more than a smooth bowl, which means more visible water marks if the glass is not dried promptly after the cycle. Remove from the rack as soon as the cycle ends and allow to air dry standing upright, or polish with a lint-free cloth before service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eIs Performance available in sets of 12 for high-volume operations?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe Restaurant Performance range is boxed in sets of 6, which reflects its positioning as a step up from the entry-level Restaurant range rather than a high-volume house glass. For operations requiring larger quantities, multiple cases can be ordered.

Cabernet Sauvignon, in its serious expressions from Bordeaux, Napa, Coonawarra, or Bolgheri, is a wine that rewards patience: the tannins need time and air, the secondary aromatics take longer to emerge than in lighter varieties, and the palate delivery needs a generous bowl to deliver the wine's full weight without compressing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe 834ml bowl is the largest in the Performance range and the right size for that job. The optic impact faceting increases the inner surface area beyond what a smooth bowl of equivalent volume would provide, which accelerates the aeration that Cabernet needs without requiring decanting. The wine opens faster, the aromatics develop more fully, and the tannin structure reads as more integrated from an earlier pour than it would in a standard bowl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFor Merlot, the same bowl works differently: the softer tannin and rounder fruit profile are given room to express their full plushness, and the aromatic surface area brings forward the fruit rather than the structure. One glass shape that works correctly for both the iron fist and the velvet glove of the Bordeaux family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"specs-0884-0\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel Restaurant Performance\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU \/ Item Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0884\/0\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Set of 6 glasses\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 834ml (29 3\/8 oz)\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 245mm (9 5\/8\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 105mm (4 1\/8\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lead-free crystal glass\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium machine-made\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optic impact faceted bowl; increases inner surface area for enhanced aromatic development\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Large 105mm bowl with optic impact faceting; designed to showcase structured, complex red wines\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed By:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georg and Maximilian Riedel\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Domina, Fronsac\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for 1,500 cycles\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpected Lifespan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10+ years under normal restaurant usage\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professional restaurant and bar use (trade-only)\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"care-0884-0\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial Dishwasher Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles under EN 12875-1\/2.

The defining innovation is the optic impact: a series of precision-pressed facets in the bowl that are both a design feature and a functional one. The facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl beyond what a smooth glass of equivalent volume provides, which means more wine in contact with more air at any given moment, faster aromatic development, and a more complete expression of the wine from an earlier point in the pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003ePerformance was co-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel and represents the first time Riedel has incorporated this light-refracting bowl technology into any of their ranges. The Sauvignon Blanc shape at 440ml with a 82mm rim is calibrated specifically for Sauvignon Blanc, Sancerre, Pouilly Fume, Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc: The 82mm bowl provides space for Sauvignon Blanc's intense aromatic profile — grapefruit, gooseberry, fresh herb, cut grass — to develop fully within the glass while the rim width controls delivery to the nose, preventing the aromatics from becoming over-concentrated. Machine-made in lead-free crystal with long fine stems and large stable bases, certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles, and sold in sets of 6 for professional restaurant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eKey features of the Riedel Restaurant Performance Sauvignon Blanc Glass:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptic impact faceted bowl:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision-pressed facets in the bowl increase the inner surface area, accelerating aromatic development and bringing forward the full complexity of the wine faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMedium 82mm bowl with optic impact faceting; sized to develop Sauvignon Blanc's intense aromatics without over-concentrating them\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel:\u003c\/strong\u003e The first Riedel series to incorporate optic impact bowl technology, developed through hands-on workshops with winemakers to validate the design for each varietal shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong fine stem and large stable base:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Performance aesthetic: elegant proportion with a practical base that resists tip-over on the restaurant table\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachine-made precision crystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel describes Performance as \"premium machine-made\" to reflect the precision consistency of the production process\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCovers Sauvignon Blanc (unoaked), Sancerre, Pouilly Fume, Marlborough, Chenin Blanc, Muscat, Gewurztraminer, Furmint, Tokaji\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1,500-cycle dishwasher certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for sustained commercial restaurant service\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet of 6, trade-only:\u003c\/strong\u003e Restaurant-format case quantity; consumer versions available in sets of 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"qa-0884-33\" style=\"background: rgba(85,123,151,0.15); border-left: 4px solid #557B97; padding: 15px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 20px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 20px;\"\u003eWhat Restaurant Professionals Ask About This Glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eWhat exactly is the optic impact and how does it work?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe optic impact is a series of precision-pressed facets moulded into the bowl of the glass during production. They are visible as subtle ribs or ridges in the crystal that catch and refract light, which gives the bowl its distinctive visual character. Functionally, the facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl: more glass surface means more wine-to-air contact at any given liquid level, which accelerates the release of aromatic compounds and brings the wine's full aromatic complexity forward faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume. For a Sauvignon Blanc with significant aromatic complexity, this is the difference between a wine that needs ten minutes in the glass to open and one that shows its full character from the first pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eHow does Performance compare to the standard Riedel Restaurant range?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eBoth ranges are machine-made and varietal-specific, but they operate at different levels. The Restaurant range (0446 series) is Riedel's benchmark commercial glass: well-designed, durable, correctly shaped for each variety, and priced for broad trade adoption. Performance adds the optic impact bowl technology, the co-design input of Georg and Maximilian Riedel specifically for the range, and a more refined aesthetic with the long fine stem and large stable base. It is the appropriate upgrade for operations where the wine programme is a significant part of the guest experience and where the glassware is expected to communicate that seriousness visually as well as functionally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eDoes the optic impact affect how the glass cleans in the dishwasher?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe facets do not trap residue or impair cleaning in a correctly maintained commercial dishwasher. The Performance range carries the same EN 12875-1\/2 certification for 1,500 cycles as other Riedel machine-made ranges. The one practical consideration is drying: the facets can hold water droplets more than a smooth bowl, which means more visible water marks if the glass is not dried promptly after the cycle. Remove from the rack as soon as the cycle ends and allow to air dry standing upright, or polish with a lint-free cloth before service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eIs Performance available in sets of 12 for high-volume operations?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe Restaurant Performance range is boxed in sets of 6, which reflects its positioning as a step up from the entry-level Restaurant range rather than a high-volume house glass.

Its aromatic profile, the grapefruit and gooseberry of New Zealand, the flinty mineral and smoke of Sancerre, the herbaceous cut-grass character that divides opinion, is intense and volatile. In too narrow a glass it concentrates towards aggression; in too wide a bowl it dissipates before it reaches the nose. The correct glass size allows the aromas to develop and gather within the bowl without becoming over-concentrated, and delivers them at a pace that reads as generous rather than overwhelming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe Performance Sauvignon Blanc bowl at 82mm is precisely calibrated for that balance. The optic impact faceting increases the inner surface area, bringing the aromatic volatiles into contact with more air faster and accelerating the development of the wine's full aromatic range from an earlier point in the pour. The result is a glass where Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc expresses its tropical generosity fully, where Sancerre's mineral precision reads with clarity, and where both styles arrive on the palate with the freshness that defines the grape at its best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe same bowl extends naturally to the wider aromatic white family: Muscat, Gewurztraminer in its more restrained expressions, Furmint from Hungary, and the range of aromatic whites from Alsace where the grape's character rather than oak influence is the defining element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"specs-0884-33\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel Restaurant Performance\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU \/ Item Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0884\/33\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Set of 6 glasses\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 440ml (15 1\/2 oz)\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 245mm (9 5\/8\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 82mm (3 1\/4\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lead-free crystal glass\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium machine-made\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optic impact faceted bowl; increases inner surface area for enhanced aromatic development\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium 82mm bowl with optic impact faceting; sized to develop Sauvignon Blanc's intense aromatics without over-concentrating them\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed By:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georg and Maximilian Riedel\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sauvignon Blanc (unoaked), Sancerre, Pouilly Fume, Marlborough, Chenin Blanc, Muscat, Gewurztraminer, Furmint, Tokaji\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for 1,500 cycles\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpected Lifespan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10+ years under normal restaurant usage\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professional restaurant and bar use (trade-only)\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"care-0884-33\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial Dishwasher Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles under EN 12875-1\/2.

The defining innovation is the optic impact: a series of precision-pressed facets in the bowl that are both a design feature and a functional one. The facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl beyond what a smooth glass of equivalent volume provides, which means more wine in contact with more air at any given moment, faster aromatic development, and a more complete expression of the wine from an earlier point in the pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003ePerformance was co-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel and represents the first time Riedel has incorporated this light-refracting bowl technology into any of their ranges. The Champagne \/ Sparkling Wine shape at 375ml with a 80mm rim is calibrated specifically for Champagne, English sparkling wine, Cremant, Cava: The tulip-shaped 80mm bowl is wider than a classic flute at the base, opening the wine's aromatics fully, while the rim narrows slightly to concentrate them at the nose and preserve the effervescence column. Machine-made in lead-free crystal with long fine stems and large stable bases, certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles, and sold in sets of 6 for professional restaurant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eKey features of the Riedel Restaurant Performance Champagne \/ Sparkling Wine Glass:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptic impact faceted bowl:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision-pressed facets in the bowl increase the inner surface area, accelerating aromatic development and bringing forward the full complexity of the wine faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTulip-shaped 80mm bowl with optic impact faceting; designed to open Champagne aromatics while preserving effervescence\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel:\u003c\/strong\u003e The first Riedel series to incorporate optic impact bowl technology, developed through hands-on workshops with winemakers to validate the design for each varietal shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong fine stem and large stable base:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Performance aesthetic: elegant proportion with a practical base that resists tip-over on the restaurant table\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachine-made precision crystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel describes Performance as \"premium machine-made\" to reflect the precision consistency of the production process\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCovers Champagne (all styles), premium Cremant, English sparkling wine, serious Cava, Prosecco Superiore\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1,500-cycle dishwasher certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for sustained commercial restaurant service\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet of 6, trade-only:\u003c\/strong\u003e Restaurant-format case quantity; consumer versions available in sets of 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"qa-0884-28\" style=\"background: rgba(85,123,151,0.15); border-left: 4px solid #557B97; padding: 15px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 20px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 20px;\"\u003eWhat Restaurant Professionals Ask About This Glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eWhat exactly is the optic impact and how does it work?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe optic impact is a series of precision-pressed facets moulded into the bowl of the glass during production. They are visible as subtle ribs or ridges in the crystal that catch and refract light, which gives the bowl its distinctive visual character. Functionally, the facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl: more glass surface means more wine-to-air contact at any given liquid level, which accelerates the release of aromatic compounds and brings the wine's full aromatic complexity forward faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume. For a Champagne \/ Sparkling Wine with significant aromatic complexity, this is the difference between a wine that needs ten minutes in the glass to open and one that shows its full character from the first pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eHow does Performance compare to the standard Riedel Restaurant range?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eBoth ranges are machine-made and varietal-specific, but they operate at different levels. The Restaurant range (0446 series) is Riedel's benchmark commercial glass: well-designed, durable, correctly shaped for each variety, and priced for broad trade adoption. Performance adds the optic impact bowl technology, the co-design input of Georg and Maximilian Riedel specifically for the range, and a more refined aesthetic with the long fine stem and large stable base. It is the appropriate upgrade for operations where the wine programme is a significant part of the guest experience and where the glassware is expected to communicate that seriousness visually as well as functionally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eDoes the optic impact affect how the glass cleans in the dishwasher?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe facets do not trap residue or impair cleaning in a correctly maintained commercial dishwasher. The Performance range carries the same EN 12875-1\/2 certification for 1,500 cycles as other Riedel machine-made ranges. The one practical consideration is drying: the facets can hold water droplets more than a smooth bowl, which means more visible water marks if the glass is not dried promptly after the cycle. Remove from the rack as soon as the cycle ends and allow to air dry standing upright, or polish with a lint-free cloth before service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eIs Performance available in sets of 12 for high-volume operations?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe Restaurant Performance range is boxed in sets of 6, which reflects its positioning as a step up from the entry-level Restaurant range rather than a high-volume house glass.

A traditional flute channels the wine through a narrow opening that preserves effervescence efficiently but restricts the aromatic expression; a wide egg-shaped bowl opens the aromatics fully but allows effervescence to dissipate faster. The Performance bowl at 80mm finds the middle ground: wider than a flute at the base where the wine's aromatics develop, with a gentle taper at the rim that concentrates them at the nose while maintaining a sustained effervescence column.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe optic impact faceting adds a further dimension: the increased inner surface area brings the Champagne's aromatic complexity forward faster from the pour, which is particularly relevant for non-vintage Champagne served young, where the wine benefits from every structural advantage the glass can provide. For vintage Champagne or prestige cuvee with more developed character, the bowl gives the autolytic complexity, brioche, cream, evolved citrus, room to express itself in a way a narrow flute cannot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eAt 375ml with a 245mm stem, the Performance Champagne glass is also visually distinctive: the same elegant tall stem as the rest of the range, with a bowl that reads as a considered choice rather than a default flute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"specs-0884-28\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel Restaurant Performance\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU \/ Item Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0884\/28\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Set of 6 glasses\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 375ml (13 1\/4 oz)\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 245mm (9 5\/8\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80mm (3 1\/2\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lead-free crystal glass\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium machine-made\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optic impact faceted bowl; increases inner surface area for enhanced aromatic development\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tulip-shaped 80mm bowl with optic impact faceting; designed to open Champagne aromatics while preserving effervescence\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed By:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georg and Maximilian Riedel\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Champagne (all styles), premium Cremant, English sparkling wine, serious Cava, Prosecco Superiore\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for 1,500 cycles\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpected Lifespan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10+ years under normal restaurant usage\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professional restaurant and bar use (trade-only)\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"care-0884-28\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial Dishwasher Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles under EN 12875-1\/2.

The defining innovation is the optic impact: a series of precision-pressed facets in the bowl that are both a design feature and a functional one. The facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl beyond what a smooth glass of equivalent volume provides, which means more wine in contact with more air at any given moment, faster aromatic development, and a more complete expression of the wine from an earlier point in the pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003ePerformance was co-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel and represents the first time Riedel has incorporated this light-refracting bowl technology into any of their ranges. The Riesling shape at 623ml with a 92mm rim is calibrated specifically for Riesling, Chenin Blanc, Vouvray, Alsace Grand Cru: The 92mm bowl is precisely sized to concentrate Riesling's complex aromatic profile — petrol, citrus, stone fruit, floral — and deliver it with the focused precision the grape's naturally high acidity demands. Machine-made in lead-free crystal with long fine stems and large stable bases, certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles, and sold in sets of 6 for professional restaurant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eKey features of the Riedel Restaurant Performance Riesling Glass:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptic impact faceted bowl:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision-pressed facets in the bowl increase the inner surface area, accelerating aromatic development and bringing forward the full complexity of the wine faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMedium 92mm bowl with optic impact faceting; precise aromatic delivery for high-acid, high-aromatic white wines\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel:\u003c\/strong\u003e The first Riedel series to incorporate optic impact bowl technology, developed through hands-on workshops with winemakers to validate the design for each varietal shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong fine stem and large stable base:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Performance aesthetic: elegant proportion with a practical base that resists tip-over on the restaurant table\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachine-made precision crystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel describes Performance as \"premium machine-made\" to reflect the precision consistency of the production process\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCovers Riesling (dry and off-dry), Chenin Blanc, Alsace Grand Cru, Vouvray, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1,500-cycle dishwasher certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for sustained commercial restaurant service\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet of 6, trade-only:\u003c\/strong\u003e Restaurant-format case quantity; consumer versions available in sets of 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"qa-0884-15\" style=\"background: rgba(85,123,151,0.15); border-left: 4px solid #557B97; padding: 15px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 20px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 20px;\"\u003eWhat Restaurant Professionals Ask About This Glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eWhat exactly is the optic impact and how does it work?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe optic impact is a series of precision-pressed facets moulded into the bowl of the glass during production. They are visible as subtle ribs or ridges in the crystal that catch and refract light, which gives the bowl its distinctive visual character. Functionally, the facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl: more glass surface means more wine-to-air contact at any given liquid level, which accelerates the release of aromatic compounds and brings the wine's full aromatic complexity forward faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume. For a Riesling with significant aromatic complexity, this is the difference between a wine that needs ten minutes in the glass to open and one that shows its full character from the first pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eHow does Performance compare to the standard Riedel Restaurant range?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eBoth ranges are machine-made and varietal-specific, but they operate at different levels. The Restaurant range (0446 series) is Riedel's benchmark commercial glass: well-designed, durable, correctly shaped for each variety, and priced for broad trade adoption. Performance adds the optic impact bowl technology, the co-design input of Georg and Maximilian Riedel specifically for the range, and a more refined aesthetic with the long fine stem and large stable base. It is the appropriate upgrade for operations where the wine programme is a significant part of the guest experience and where the glassware is expected to communicate that seriousness visually as well as functionally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eDoes the optic impact affect how the glass cleans in the dishwasher?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe facets do not trap residue or impair cleaning in a correctly maintained commercial dishwasher. The Performance range carries the same EN 12875-1\/2 certification for 1,500 cycles as other Riedel machine-made ranges. The one practical consideration is drying: the facets can hold water droplets more than a smooth bowl, which means more visible water marks if the glass is not dried promptly after the cycle. Remove from the rack as soon as the cycle ends and allow to air dry standing upright, or polish with a lint-free cloth before service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eIs Performance available in sets of 12 for high-volume operations?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe Restaurant Performance range is boxed in sets of 6, which reflects its positioning as a step up from the entry-level Restaurant range rather than a high-volume house glass.

Its aromatic intensity, that signature combination of petrol, citrus, blossom, and stone fruit, can suggest richness on the nose that the palate then delivers with razor-edged acidity. The glass it is served in has to handle both registers correctly: enough bowl to gather and concentrate the aromatics, narrow enough at the rim to focus rather than dissipate them, and the right delivery angle to present the acidity as freshness rather than aggression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe Performance Riesling bowl at 92mm is calibrated for exactly that. It is substantially wider than a white wine flute or a narrow aromatic glass, which allows the wine's complex aromatic layers to develop fully within the bowl before reaching the nose. The optic impact faceting increases the inner surface area, which accelerates aromatic development and brings forward the nuances that distinguish a great Riesling Spatlese from a competent one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe same bowl works well across the high-aromatic, high-acid white family: Chenin Blanc from Vouvray or Savennieres, Gewurztraminer where the opulent aromatics benefit from the wider surface, Pinot Gris in its more aromatic Alsatian expressions. For operations with a serious Alsace or German wine list, this is the glass that shows the range correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"specs-0884-15\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel Restaurant Performance\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU \/ Item Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0884\/15\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Set of 6 glasses\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 623ml (22 oz)\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 245mm (9 5\/8\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92mm (3 3\/4\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lead-free crystal glass\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium machine-made\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optic impact faceted bowl; increases inner surface area for enhanced aromatic development\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium 92mm bowl with optic impact faceting; precise aromatic delivery for high-acid, high-aromatic white wines\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed By:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georg and Maximilian Riedel\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riesling (dry and off-dry), Chenin Blanc, Alsace Grand Cru, Vouvray, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for 1,500 cycles\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpected Lifespan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10+ years under normal restaurant usage\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professional restaurant and bar use (trade-only)\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"care-0884-15\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial Dishwasher Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles under EN 12875-1\/2.

The defining innovation is the optic impact: a series of precision-pressed facets in the bowl that are both a design feature and a functional one. The facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl beyond what a smooth glass of equivalent volume provides, which means more wine in contact with more air at any given moment, faster aromatic development, and a more complete expression of the wine from an earlier point in the pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003ePerformance was co-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel and represents the first time Riedel has incorporated this light-refracting bowl technology into any of their ranges. The Syrah\/Shiraz shape at 631ml with a 96mm rim is calibrated specifically for Syrah, Shiraz, Cote-Rotie, Hermitage, Barossa Shiraz: The egg-shaped 96mm bowl with accentuated curve brings forward the soft fruit and earthy characteristics of Syrah while the optic impact faceting releases the grape's signature pepper and spice aromatics with greater intensity than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume. Machine-made in lead-free crystal with long fine stems and large stable bases, certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles, and sold in sets of 6 for professional restaurant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eKey features of the Riedel Restaurant Performance Syrah\/Shiraz Glass:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptic impact faceted bowl:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision-pressed facets in the bowl increase the inner surface area, accelerating aromatic development and bringing forward the full complexity of the wine faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccentuated egg-shaped 96mm bowl with optic impact faceting; designed to bring forward soft fruit and earthy characteristics while highlighting a long savoury finish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel:\u003c\/strong\u003e The first Riedel series to incorporate optic impact bowl technology, developed through hands-on workshops with winemakers to validate the design for each varietal shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong fine stem and large stable base:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Performance aesthetic: elegant proportion with a practical base that resists tip-over on the restaurant table\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachine-made precision crystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel describes Performance as \"premium machine-made\" to reflect the precision consistency of the production process\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCovers Syrah, Shiraz, Grenache, Northern Rhone, Barossa Valley, Crozes-Hermitage, Cornas, Cote-Rotie, Amarone, Barbera\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1,500-cycle dishwasher certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for sustained commercial restaurant service\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet of 6, trade-only:\u003c\/strong\u003e Restaurant-format case quantity; consumer versions available in sets of 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"qa-0884-41\" style=\"background: rgba(85,123,151,0.15); border-left: 4px solid #557B97; padding: 15px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 20px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 20px;\"\u003eWhat Restaurant Professionals Ask About This Glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eWhat exactly is the optic impact and how does it work?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe optic impact is a series of precision-pressed facets moulded into the bowl of the glass during production. They are visible as subtle ribs or ridges in the crystal that catch and refract light, which gives the bowl its distinctive visual character. Functionally, the facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl: more glass surface means more wine-to-air contact at any given liquid level, which accelerates the release of aromatic compounds and brings the wine's full aromatic complexity forward faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume. For a Syrah\/Shiraz with significant aromatic complexity, this is the difference between a wine that needs ten minutes in the glass to open and one that shows its full character from the first pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eHow does Performance compare to the standard Riedel Restaurant range?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eBoth ranges are machine-made and varietal-specific, but they operate at different levels. The Restaurant range (0446 series) is Riedel's benchmark commercial glass: well-designed, durable, correctly shaped for each variety, and priced for broad trade adoption. Performance adds the optic impact bowl technology, the co-design input of Georg and Maximilian Riedel specifically for the range, and a more refined aesthetic with the long fine stem and large stable base. It is the appropriate upgrade for operations where the wine programme is a significant part of the guest experience and where the glassware is expected to communicate that seriousness visually as well as functionally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eDoes the optic impact affect how the glass cleans in the dishwasher?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe facets do not trap residue or impair cleaning in a correctly maintained commercial dishwasher. The Performance range carries the same EN 12875-1\/2 certification for 1,500 cycles as other Riedel machine-made ranges. The one practical consideration is drying: the facets can hold water droplets more than a smooth bowl, which means more visible water marks if the glass is not dried promptly after the cycle. Remove from the rack as soon as the cycle ends and allow to air dry standing upright, or polish with a lint-free cloth before service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eIs Performance available in sets of 12 for high-volume operations?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe Restaurant Performance range is boxed in sets of 6, which reflects its positioning as a step up from the entry-level Restaurant range rather than a high-volume house glass.

Northern Rhone Syrah, from Hermitage, Cote-Rotie, or Cornas, is a wine of iron and velvet: dark fruit, black olive, graphite, and the distinctive white pepper that defines the northern expression. Australian Shiraz, from Barossa or McLaren Vale, is more immediately generous: dense ripe fruit, chocolate, mocha, with a weight and richness that requires a bowl large enough to contain it without compressing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe Performance Syrah\/Shiraz glass with its accentuated egg-shaped 96mm bowl handles both expressions correctly. The egg shape brings forward the soft fruit and earthy mid-palate character that Syrah carries in both its northern and southern expressions, while the wider point of the bowl gives the wine's aromatic complexity room to develop fully before reaching the rim. The optic impact faceting releases the spice and pepper notes with greater clarity than a smooth bowl, which is the defining quality that separates this glass from a generic red wine glass of similar volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFor Grenache-dominant blends from the southern Rhone and similar warm-climate reds, the same bowl works well: the fruit-forward, lower-tannin profile of Grenache is given space to express its generosity without the bowl overemphasising the alcohol that warm-climate Grenache often carries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"specs-0884-41\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel Restaurant Performance\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU \/ Item Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0884\/41\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Set of 6 glasses\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 631ml (21 oz)\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 245mm (9 5\/8\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 96mm (3 3\/4\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lead-free crystal glass\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium machine-made\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optic impact faceted bowl; increases inner surface area for enhanced aromatic development\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Accentuated egg-shaped 96mm bowl with optic impact faceting; designed to bring forward soft fruit and earthy characteristics while highlighting a long savoury finish\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed By:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georg and Maximilian Riedel\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Syrah, Shiraz, Grenache, Northern Rhone, Barossa Valley, Crozes-Hermitage, Cornas, Cote-Rotie, Amarone, Barbera\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for 1,500 cycles\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpected Lifespan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10+ years under normal restaurant usage\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professional restaurant and bar use (trade-only)\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"care-0884-41\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial Dishwasher Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles under EN 12875-1\/2.

The defining innovation is the optic impact: a series of precision-pressed facets in the bowl that are both a design feature and a functional one. The facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl beyond what a smooth glass of equivalent volume provides, which means more wine in contact with more air at any given moment, faster aromatic development, and a more complete expression of the wine from an earlier point in the pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003ePerformance was co-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel and represents the first time Riedel has incorporated this light-refracting bowl technology into any of their ranges. The Pinot Noir shape at 830ml with a 108mm rim is calibrated specifically for Pinot Noir, Burgundy, Barbaresco, Gamay, Spatburgunder: The tulip shape and slightly flared lip work together to highlight the sweetness and red fruit of Pinot Noir on entry while the 108mm bowl gives the wine's full aromatic complexity room to develop. The optic impact faceting brings the grape's characteristic delicacy forward. Machine-made in lead-free crystal with long fine stems and large stable bases, certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles, and sold in sets of 6 for professional restaurant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eKey features of the Riedel Restaurant Performance Pinot Noir Glass:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptic impact faceted bowl:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision-pressed facets in the bowl increase the inner surface area, accelerating aromatic development and bringing forward the full complexity of the wine faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLarge tulip-shaped 108mm bowl with flared lip and optic impact faceting; designed to highlight sweetness and fruit while balancing acidity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel:\u003c\/strong\u003e The first Riedel series to incorporate optic impact bowl technology, developed through hands-on workshops with winemakers to validate the design for each varietal shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong fine stem and large stable base:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Performance aesthetic: elegant proportion with a practical base that resists tip-over on the restaurant table\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachine-made precision crystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel describes Performance as \"premium machine-made\" to reflect the precision consistency of the production process\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCovers Pinot Noir (New World and Old World), Burgundy, Barbaresco, Barbera, light-bodied Gamay, Spatburgunder\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1,500-cycle dishwasher certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for sustained commercial restaurant service\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet of 6, trade-only:\u003c\/strong\u003e Restaurant-format case quantity; consumer versions available in sets of 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"qa-0884-67\" style=\"background: rgba(85,123,151,0.15); border-left: 4px solid #557B97; padding: 15px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 20px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 20px;\"\u003eWhat Restaurant Professionals Ask About This Glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eWhat exactly is the optic impact and how does it work?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe optic impact is a series of precision-pressed facets moulded into the bowl of the glass during production. They are visible as subtle ribs or ridges in the crystal that catch and refract light, which gives the bowl its distinctive visual character. Functionally, the facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl: more glass surface means more wine-to-air contact at any given liquid level, which accelerates the release of aromatic compounds and brings the wine's full aromatic complexity forward faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume. For a Pinot Noir with significant aromatic complexity, this is the difference between a wine that needs ten minutes in the glass to open and one that shows its full character from the first pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eHow does Performance compare to the standard Riedel Restaurant range?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eBoth ranges are machine-made and varietal-specific, but they operate at different levels. The Restaurant range (0446 series) is Riedel's benchmark commercial glass: well-designed, durable, correctly shaped for each variety, and priced for broad trade adoption. Performance adds the optic impact bowl technology, the co-design input of Georg and Maximilian Riedel specifically for the range, and a more refined aesthetic with the long fine stem and large stable base. It is the appropriate upgrade for operations where the wine programme is a significant part of the guest experience and where the glassware is expected to communicate that seriousness visually as well as functionally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eDoes the optic impact affect how the glass cleans in the dishwasher?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe facets do not trap residue or impair cleaning in a correctly maintained commercial dishwasher. The Performance range carries the same EN 12875-1\/2 certification for 1,500 cycles as other Riedel machine-made ranges. The one practical consideration is drying: the facets can hold water droplets more than a smooth bowl, which means more visible water marks if the glass is not dried promptly after the cycle. Remove from the rack as soon as the cycle ends and allow to air dry standing upright, or polish with a lint-free cloth before service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eIs Performance available in sets of 12 for high-volume operations?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe Restaurant Performance range is boxed in sets of 6, which reflects its positioning as a step up from the entry-level Restaurant range rather than a high-volume house glass.

Its aromatic complexity, the red cherry, earth, forest floor, and spice that characterise great Burgundy, is fragile and volatile: too wide a bowl dissipates it, too narrow a bowl compresses it, and the wrong delivery angle on the palate emphasises the acidity over the fruit in a way that makes the wine feel thinner than it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe Performance Pinot Noir glass addresses all three concerns simultaneously. The large 108mm tulip-shaped bowl gives the wine's aromatics the maximum development space within the glass, allowing the full complexity of a village Burgundy or a serious New World Pinot to unfold before reaching the nose. The slightly flared lip directs the wine to the tip and front of the palate on entry, where the fruit sweetness registers first, which balances the acidity and allows the wine to present as complete and harmonious rather than lean or acidic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe optic impact faceting adds the Performance-specific advantage: the increased inner surface area brings the wine's aromatic volatiles into contact with more air faster, which is particularly valuable for Pinot Noir, where the secondary earthy and spice notes take longer to emerge than the primary fruit. The result is a glass where Pinot Noir shows what it can be from an earlier point in the pour, and where the full expression of the wine is accessible without requiring decanting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"specs-0884-67\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel Restaurant Performance\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU \/ Item Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0884\/67\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Set of 6 glasses\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 830ml (28 oz)\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 245mm (9 5\/8\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 108mm (4 1\/4\")\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lead-free crystal glass\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium machine-made\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optic impact faceted bowl; increases inner surface area for enhanced aromatic development\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Large tulip-shaped 108mm bowl with flared lip and optic impact faceting; designed to highlight sweetness and fruit while balancing acidity\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed By:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georg and Maximilian Riedel\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinot Noir (New World and Old World), Burgundy, Barbaresco, Barbera, light-bodied Gamay, Spatburgunder\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for 1,500 cycles\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpected Lifespan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10+ years under normal restaurant usage\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professional restaurant and bar use (trade-only)\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"care-0884-67\" style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 15px; border-radius: 5px; margin: 15px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0;\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial Dishwasher Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles under EN 12875-1\/2.

The defining innovation is the optic impact: a series of precision-pressed facets in the bowl that are both a design feature and a functional one. The facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl beyond what a smooth glass of equivalent volume provides, which means more wine in contact with more air at any given moment, faster aromatic development, and a more complete expression of the wine from an earlier point in the pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003ePerformance was co-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel and represents the first time Riedel has incorporated this light-refracting bowl technology into any of their ranges. The Chardonnay shape at 727ml with a 108mm rim is calibrated specifically for Chardonnay, White Burgundy, Chablis, Meursault, Viognier: The 108mm bowl provides the generous surface area that Chardonnay's textural richness requires, with the optic impact faceting accelerating aromatic development and bringing forward the grape's full range from the mineral precision of Chablis to the creamy richness of oaked Meursault. Machine-made in lead-free crystal with long fine stems and large stable bases, certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles, and sold in sets of 6 for professional restaurant use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eKey features of the Riedel Restaurant Performance Chardonnay Glass:\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptic impact faceted bowl:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision-pressed facets in the bowl increase the inner surface area, accelerating aromatic development and bringing forward the full complexity of the wine faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLarge 108mm bowl with optic impact faceting; designed for the full aromatic and textural range of Chardonnay from lean mineral Chablis to rich oaked Burgundy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCo-designed by Georg and Maximilian Riedel:\u003c\/strong\u003e The first Riedel series to incorporate optic impact bowl technology, developed through hands-on workshops with winemakers to validate the design for each varietal shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong fine stem and large stable base:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Performance aesthetic: elegant proportion with a practical base that resists tip-over on the restaurant table\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachine-made precision crystal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riedel describes Performance as \"premium machine-made\" to reflect the precision consistency of the production process\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCovers Chardonnay (oaked and unoaked), White Burgundy, Chablis, Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Viognier, White Rhone\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1,500-cycle dishwasher certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e EN 12875-1\/2 certified for sustained commercial restaurant service\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet of 6, trade-only:\u003c\/strong\u003e Restaurant-format case quantity; consumer versions available in sets of 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv id=\"qa-0884-97\" style=\"background: rgba(85,123,151,0.15); border-left: 4px solid #557B97; padding: 15px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 20px 0; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%;\"\u003e\n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #557b97; margin-top: 0; font-size: 20px;\"\u003eWhat Restaurant Professionals Ask About This Glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eWhat exactly is the optic impact and how does it work?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe optic impact is a series of precision-pressed facets moulded into the bowl of the glass during production. They are visible as subtle ribs or ridges in the crystal that catch and refract light, which gives the bowl its distinctive visual character. Functionally, the facets increase the inner surface area of the bowl: more glass surface means more wine-to-air contact at any given liquid level, which accelerates the release of aromatic compounds and brings the wine's full aromatic complexity forward faster than a smooth bowl of equivalent volume. For a Chardonnay with significant aromatic complexity, this is the difference between a wine that needs ten minutes in the glass to open and one that shows its full character from the first pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eHow does Performance compare to the standard Riedel Restaurant range?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eBoth ranges are machine-made and varietal-specific, but they operate at different levels. The Restaurant range (0446 series) is Riedel's benchmark commercial glass: well-designed, durable, correctly shaped for each variety, and priced for broad trade adoption. Performance adds the optic impact bowl technology, the co-design input of Georg and Maximilian Riedel specifically for the range, and a more refined aesthetic with the long fine stem and large stable base. It is the appropriate upgrade for operations where the wine programme is a significant part of the guest experience and where the glassware is expected to communicate that seriousness visually as well as functionally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eDoes the optic impact affect how the glass cleans in the dishwasher?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe facets do not trap residue or impair cleaning in a correctly maintained commercial dishwasher. The Performance range carries the same EN 12875-1\/2 certification for 1,500 cycles as other Riedel machine-made ranges. The one practical consideration is drying: the facets can hold water droplets more than a smooth bowl, which means more visible water marks if the glass is not dried promptly after the cycle. Remove from the rack as soon as the cycle ends and allow to air dry standing upright, or polish with a lint-free cloth before service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n    \u003cdetails style=\"margin-bottom: 15px; border: 1px solid #557B97; border-radius: 5px; padding: 15px; box-sizing: border-box; width: 100%; background: white;\"\u003e\n      \u003csummary style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: pointer; color: #557b97; font-size: 16px; padding: 5px 0; min-height: 44px; display: flex; align-items: center;\"\u003eIs Performance available in sets of 12 for high-volume operations?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n      \u003cp style=\"margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe Restaurant Performance range is boxed in sets of 6, which reflects its positioning as a step up from the entry-level Restaurant range rather than a high-volume house glass.

At one end: Chablis, lean, mineral, with the distinctive chalk and oyster-shell character of the Kimmeridgian limestone that defines the appellation. At the other: oaked Meursault or Puligny-Montrachet, rich with butter, cream, hazelnut, and the density that extended lees ageing and barrel fermentation produce. Between them, the full range of New World Chardonnay from Burgundian-styled restraint to the riper, more generous fruit character of warmer climates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe Performance Chardonnay glass at 108mm and 727ml is designed to serve this full range correctly. The bowl volume is large enough to contain Chardonnay's textural richness without losing it at the rim, and the optic impact faceting brings forward the aromatic complexity of the grape at every expression: the citrus and mineral of unoaked styles, the stone fruit and vanilla of lightly oaked wines, the full cream and nutty complexity of serious white Burgundy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFor operations with a white Burgundy list, this glass handles the full range from Chablis village through premier cru to grand cru in a single shape, which simplifies service without compromising the presentation of any wine in the range.
