Experts with the world's most discerning palates helped develop Riedel's Vinum series, a collection of glasses designed to flatter specific types of wines and liquors. These elegant lead-crystal flutes showcase the best qualities of Champagne and other sparkling wine, including Cuvée Prestige, Vintage Champagne, Vintage Sparkling Wine and Rosé Champagne. The fluted bowl provides ample breathing space, which concentrates the yeasty bouquet and brings out the full range of aromas.

• Wash under warm water; detergent is not necessary.
• Allow to air dry.
• For extra shine, steam over boiling water.
• If desired, carefully polish with a lint free cloth.
• Never twist the base and bowl.
• All Riedel glasses are dishwasher safe.

The narrow rim directs the flow of liquid to areas of the tongue that recognize the creamy texture. Each flute has a tiny dot etched into the base of its bowl. This slightly abraded spot generates a continuous stream of bubbles, which preserves the Champagne's effervescence.
