An image of elegance and superb balance: a Riedel decanter next to Riedel Vinum glasses. Riedel glassware still invokes the same feeling it did over 250 years ago when the Riedel family began it's eleven generation tradition in the art of glass making. In the 1950s, with designs using the Bauhaus technique of melding form and function, Riedel's Professor Claus J. Riedel realized the form he created in his wine glasses accentuated the complexity and balance of wine like no other glassware. A new series of glasses were born and in 1973, the Riedel Sommeliers line perfected this design and garnered admiration from around the globe. Share this centuries long tradition and find the line that fits your wine. The brilliance and functionality they bring while you're entertaining in your home guarantees that feeling of a special night. From the Riedel O line to the Riedel Ouverture to the Riedel stemless offering, the advantage of drinking out of one of their creations is felt the instant the drink touches the mouth.

Born in 1673, Johann Christoph Riedel was the first Riedel to trade luxury glass. A glass culture flourished in the northern part of Bohemia, which at that time was situated between today's Czech Republic and Poland. His son, Johann Carl Riedel, was a gilder and glass cutter operating out of his own workshop. The first Riedel glass factory opened it's doors in 1760. Eleven generations later, this company has continues to surpass all others in quality, craftsmanship, and of course, tradition. Several generations later, the corporate board today includes Georg J. Riedel and his son, Maximillian Riedel.

Isn't it amazing how a company that began hundreds of years ago can evolve and innovate a product like Riedel glasses that actually enhance the taste of wine? Like the Riedel cabernet or riedel chardonnay stemware created in a form to heighten taste enjoyment, a Riedel set of glasses are the perfect way to celebrate any occasion and also more than satisfy when presented as a gift. Can you see how having Riedel stemware can dramatically improve dinner in your home? Don't allow just any glass to hold your favorite bottle of wine, let Riedel make it taste it's best.
