Riedel Swirl Wine Glass

The unique grooves and wavy shape of the glass create turbulence as you swirl, which increases the wine's surface area contact with oxygen. This process helps open up the bouquet and soften tannins more quickly than a standard smooth-sided glass.

Yes, the universal shape is designed to handle a wide range of varietals. While the aeration benefits are particularly helpful for bold red wines, the size and shape work perfectly for white wines that benefit from a bit of breathing.

Yes, these glasses are machine-made from durable, lead-free crystal and are safe for dishwasher use. To keep them clear and free of spots, we recommend using a gentle cycle and a high-quality detergent.

The stemless design is quite practical for casual settings and is less prone to tipping over than traditional long-stemmed glassware. The wavy texture also provides a secure, ergonomic grip that makes them comfortable to hold.

Each glass in the set has a generous capacity of 20.5 fluid ounces. This size allows plenty of room for the wine to aerate properly without spilling when you swirl.
