The Superleggero Collection

The Bordeaux grand cru glass is perfect for full-bodied, complex red wines that are high in tannin. This shape was one of the original 'wine friendly' glasses designed by 9th generation Claus J. RIEDEL. The generous size of this glass allows the bouquet to develop fully and smooths out the rough edges. It emphasizes the fruit, playing down the bitter qualities of the tannin, and allows wines to achieve balance. The RIEDEL Superleggero is a masterpiece of state-of-the-art technology. The perfection of premium machine-made glass compared to handmade lies in the precision of the bowl and rim diameter and its consistent quality. The collection includes the largest, thinnest, and lightest glasses with the widest base diameter of up to 106 mm ever produced on the machine to date. “Premium” defines the advantage of machine-blown RIEDEL glass vs. hand-made glass. The difference lies within the precision. Since RIEDEL glasses are fine-tuned instruments that support your wine enjoyment, we must make sure that there are no variances in the execution of the bowl and rim diameter, which is the key to our philosophy!

It's very elegant, I love it. As said, it's very thin, not only the glass portion but leg too.. Emi. New York, NY. Sun Dec 03 2023

Coupes and flutes are so 2000 and late! This is the perfect glass to taste the true essence of a great sparking wine (champagne or not). It allows just the right amount of bubbles to stay in the glass so it doesn’t mask the beauty of the wine but still keeps it light and effervescent. If my partner doesn’t have these for our wedding toast, I’m divorcing them. Haha!. Kevin. WA. Mon May 13 2024
