Grape Pinot Noir / Nebbiolo / Aperitivo Glasses
The Riedel Restaurant Grape Pinot Noir/Nebbiolo/Aperitivo Glass (0424/07) is the aromatic specialist in the Grape collection: a wide-bowl flat-bottomed glass at 750ml and 111mm diameter where the broad bowl transitions to a narrower rim to concentrate the bouquet of delicate reds like Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo at the nose. The wide base is equally suited to aperitivo cocktail presentations where ice, garnishes, and botanical elements benefit from a generous, stable vessel.
The bowl-to-rim taper is the key design feature: the large surface area within the wide bowl allows proper oxidation and aromatic development for lighter-bodied reds, while the narrowing rim concentrates those aromatics at the nose. Machine-made in lead-free crystal, certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles, sold in sets of 12.

What Restaurant Professionals Ask About This Product
Why does Nebbiolo need a different glass from Cabernet?
Nebbiolo, the grape behind Barolo and Barbaresco, is one of the most aromatic red grapes in the world but also one of the most tannic. A glass optimised for bold tannic New World reds emphasises the tannin. The Pinot Noir/Nebbiolo bowl prioritises aromatic development and front-palate delivery of the fruit, which presents Nebbiolo's aromatic complexity, tar, roses, dried fruit, first and lets the tannin settle into the background.
What aperitivo builds work in this glass?
The wide bowl and 750ml capacity suit the Negroni served on ice, Aperol Spritz, Campari Spritz, and any aperitivo build where a generous vessel with a broad stable base enhances the presentation. The bowl-to-rim taper also concentrates the botanical aromatics of spirit-forward aperitivo drinks at the nose.
How does this compare to the Grape Cabernet/Merlot bowl?
The 0424/07 (Pinot Noir/Nebbiolo/Aperitivo) is 750ml with a 111mm diameter bowl that narrows at the rim, designed for delicate aromatic reds and aperitivo. The 0424/0 (Cabernet/Merlot/Cocktail) is 830ml with a 103mm rim throughout, designed for bold full-bodied reds. The bowl-to-rim taper is the key difference: one concentrates aromatics at the nose, one maintains a wide opening for maximum air contact.
How many dishwasher cycles will this glass survive?
EN 12875-1/2 certified for 1,500 commercial dishwasher cycles, corresponding to 10+ years of normal restaurant service life.
Aromatic Elegance: One Shape for Delicate Reds and Aperitivo
Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo share a paradox: both are intensely aromatic grapes, but both are also structurally demanding in ways that make the wrong glass a significant problem. Pinot Noir's high acidity registers as sharpness in a glass that does not deliver to the front palate first. Nebbiolo's formidable tannin structure reads as aggressive astringency in a glass that emphasises the tannin rather than the aromatics.
The Grape Pinot Noir/Nebbiolo/Aperitivo bowl addresses both with the same solution: a wide aromatic surface in the bowl for maximum aroma development, and a narrowing at the rim that concentrates those aromatics at the nose while directing the wine to the front palate.
The aperitivo crossover is a practical bonus. The same generous, stable, visually interesting bowl that serves aromatic reds correctly also makes a Negroni look considered and a Campari Spritz look elegant. One glass that covers the aperitivo hour and the dinner service is an operational advantage that the Grape collection delivers without compromise.
