Riedel Veloce Pinot Noir Glass

The diamond-shaped silhouette is engineered to provide extra surface area for the wine to breathe. This specific geometry helps complex aromas unfold more effectively, which is essential for the delicate profiles of Pinot Noir and similar light-bodied reds.

Yes, while optimized for Pinot Noir, the design is excellent for other light-to-medium-bodied red wines with high acidity and moderate tannins, such as Barbaresco and Burgundy. The bowl shape is versatile enough to handle any varietal that benefits from aeration.

These are machine-made from high-quality crystal, which offers a balance between a refined, delicate feel and the durability required for everyday use. They are also dishwasher safe, making them practical for frequent entertaining.

The base features a discreet inscription identifying the specific grape varietal the glass was designed for. It is a functional detail that helps you quickly identify the correct stemware when you have a collection of different Riedel glasses.

Each glass stands 9.72 inches tall. While they are dishwasher safe, you should measure the height of your dishwasher's top rack to ensure they fit comfortably before running a cycle.
