Where is Riedel glassware made?

Riedel is a company that takes great pride in its production process and the quality of its products. All Riedel glassware is handcrafted in Austria, where the company has been headquartered for over 250 years. Riedel sources only the highest quality materials from around the world and combines them with traditional European glassmaking techniques to produce their world-famous products.

What makes Riedel glassware better than other glassware brands?

Riedel glassware is widely regarded as the best glassware in the world. So what sets Riedel apart from other glassware brands? The answer lies in the company's commitment to producing wine glasses and spirit glasses that are designed specifically for the wine or spirit being consumed.

Riedel's glasses are not just aesthetically pleasing, but they are also engineered to enhance the aroma, flavor, and overall drinking experience. Riedel's approach to wine glass design is based on the understanding that different wines require different glass shapes. Riedel doesn't just simply produce red wine glasses and white wine glasses, instead they invest heavily in their R&D and generations of experience to precisely engineer glasses specific to the type or grape variety to maximise the aromas, flavour notes and overall taste. For example, a full-bodied red wine will have a larger bowl and wider opening to allow for aeration and proper oxygenation, while a light-bodied white wine will have a smaller bowl and narrower opening to retain delicate aromas and flavours. This attention to detail is what makes Riedel glassware stand out from other brands that tend take a one-size-fits-all approach to glass design. 

In addition to their innovative design, Riedel glasses are also made from high-quality crystal, which is lead-free and break-resistant. The crystal material used by Riedel is thinner and more delicate than other glassware brands, which allows for a more refined drinking experience. The glasses are also dishwasher safe, making them easy to clean and maintain.

Riedel offers a wide range of glassware, including glasses for wine, beer, spirits, and non-alcoholic beverages. Each glass is designed to enhance the drinking experience of the specific drink being consumed. For wine, Riedel offers a range of glasses for red, white, and sparkling wines.

These glasses are designed to bring out the complex flavors and aromas of each spirit, and enhance the overall drinking experience.

Riedel also is renowned for their fantastic stemless glasses that are ideal for everyday use and can also be used as water glasses. By removing the stems, Riedel's stemless glasses, known as the Riedel 'O' collection make them easier to stack in the dishwasher or store in smaller cupboards.
