RIEDEL Sommeliers Tinto Reserva
The Tinto Reserve glass is perfect for the top Gran Reservas from Ribera de Duero or Rioja.
This shape was designed following tastings with major growers focusing on this great yet highly idiosyncratic grape variety. The larger liquid volume highlights the flavor and finish of the top oak-aged Tempranillo wines, whose tannic structure makes them eminently ageable.
This product is made of clear crystal glass.
Sommeliers was the world’s first wine friendly glass collection and a design revolution created by Claus J. Riedel (9th generation). The range adheres to the Bauhaus design principle of form follows function, as Claus J. Riedel had discovered that certain wines showed more depth and better balance when enjoyed from certain shapes. Thin-blown and unadorned, Sommeliers was the beginning of RIEDEL's dominance of the global wine glass market.

Hard Facts
Owning a handmade Sommeliers glass is like owning a piece of history - the collection defined a new modern age thanks to their thin, undecorated, functional design. Though they are now over 40 years old, the Grape Varietal Specific shapes remain more or less unchanged over time, demonstrating their groundbreaking innovation.
