Product Details

The Riesling Grand Cru is perfect for balancing the high acidity and residual sugar of fruit-forward white wine. This shape is the most versatile white wine glass in the Riedel range. It helps to balance the fresh characters and high mineral components, emphasising the wonderful fruit aromas.

Vinum is Riedel's basic varietal specific stemmed series. Designed in 1986 by 10th generation glassmaker Georg J. Riedel, Vinum was created to ensure every wine lover could afford varietal-specific glassware. Based on the handmade Sommeliers range, machine production means Vinum can be offered at a more accessible price.

Machine-made and dishwasher safe.

Glass Care

Caring for your Riedel Crystal

• Riedel glasses are dishwasher safe. Riedel exclusively recommends MIELE
• To avoid stains: use soft water (low mineral content)
• To avoid scratches: Avoid glass contact with other glass or metal
• To remove stains: use white vinegar
• If available use a stemware rack

If washing by hand

• Wash the glass under warm water (use detergent and rinse the glass carefully)
• Glass polishing: Use two polishing cloths, never hold the glass by the base to polish the bowl
• Stem snap: Occurs through mishandling = torque or bend pressure at the stem
• Storage: Avoid glass storage in kitchen cabinets which have strong aromas that translates into glass

Microfiber Polishing Cloth

• Wash at boiling temperature (to kill bacteria) with odorless soap
• Should be machine washed at min. 170°F / 75°C
• Never use fabric softener when rinsing your microfiber polishing cloth (avoids grease film on surface)
