Stylish, practical, and fun, Riedel "O" is the original varietal-specific wine tumbler; this particular set is recommended for Champagne. The set of two stemless wine glasses comes packaged in a beautiful gift box, making it a perfect present for a loved one—or yourself. The "O" series is non-lead. Fits in every dishwasher, picnic basket, minibar, or small kitchen. Broken stems are a thing of the past.
Maximilian Riedel (11th generation) presents his first wine glass series. Any Riedel connoisseur may be surprised to find that this new glass series is missing a stem and base. Riedel "O" is a new innovative take on the wine tumbler, and is the ideal glass for everyday use and for every occasion. It is fun, feels good to hold, looks trendy and it works!
The designs of "O" are based on the benchmark shapes of Riedel Vinum. For the first time in glass history, design parameters such as the tumbler's shape, size, and rim diameter have been fine-tuned to enhance the world's most important grape varietals. "O" is available in six distinctive sets: Cabernet/Merlot, Pinot/Nebbiolo, Syrah/Shiraz, Chardonnay, Viognier/Chardonnay, and Riesling/Sauvignon.
The tumbler, used for centuries as an all- around drinking vessel, is now a sophisticated wine accessory. Maximilian Riedel has created something new with "O" without losing sight of his roots.
"O" will not compete with the existing Riedel glass series, as it is an addition for those who love an elegant, uncomplicated design that works. Thirty years ago, Claus Riedel (9th generation) revolutionized the wine glass world when he began translating functionality into design. His grandson, Maximilian Riedel, feels that now is the right time to offer a convenience product: an easy-to-use glass that fits into every dishwasher, picnic basket, minibar, or small kitchen, and makes broken stems a thing of the past.
