Riedel Vinum Extreme - Sauvignon Blanc / Riesling Wine Glass (Set of 2)

A perfect addition to your Riedel collection, these Riedel Vinum Extreme Sauvignon Blanc glasses are designed specifically for medium-bodied white wines such as white Bordeaux, Hermitage Blanc, Pinot Blanc, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon-Semillon, and Viognier. The Extreme line, most known for their larger, more dramatic diamond shaped bowls, provide an even larger surface area, exposing the wine to more oxygen and allowing it to fully open up, resulting in heightened performance, and further enhanced drinking experience for those using them. The Riedel Vinum Extreme collection was designed in response to the continued improvement in the quality of wines being produced today. As wines have become more dense, concentrated and perfected, so has the call for new glass shapes. The Extreme line is machine-made of 24% lead crystal.

Vinum Extreme is the latest development in Riedel´s machine-made "Gourmet Glass Concept."

The inspiration for this development can be attributed to three factors: the steady improvement in wine quality, to more dense, more concentrated and more perfect wines, which call for the development of new shapes; to translate a wines message in a perfect way; to the progess that has been made in the features and quality of machine production.
