Ignite your senses

RIEDEL Wine Glass Experiences are coming to the UK

''

Join us in Chester and London this November for two tantalising RIEDEL Wine Glass Experiences.

''

On Monday, November 4th, at Chester Racecourse and Tuesday, November 5th, at The Waldorf Hotel, London, RIEDEL CEO Maximilian Riedel will demonstrate how the size and shape of a wine glass can influence our experience of a wine's bouquet and flavour profile. At our RIEDEL Wine Glass Experiences, Maximilian personally guides you through the tasting, allowing you to experience first-hand the role that the glass plays in wine enjoyment, helping you elevate your future wine enjoyment.

Both events will be conducted using our Grape Varietal Specific RIEDEL Veloce Collection - our finest, lightest machine-made glassware collection that looks and feels handmade. At the end of each evening, attendees get to take home a complimentary RIEDEL Veloce Tasting Kit worth £125, containing Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Chardonnay glasses.

About the venues

Chester Racecourse

The first event takes us to the famous Chester Racecourse's Pavilion Suite. Historically known as 'the Rooodee,' Chester Racecourse dates back to the 1500s, making it the oldest racecourse in the world still in use. Situated on the banks of the River Dee, close to Chester's city centre, the Chester Racecourse is easily accessible, offering the combination of a picturesque backdrop and convenience for attendees.

This wine glass experience will begin at 6pm and will last for roughly 85 minutes. Doors open at 5pm and the bar will be open until 5.45pm, giving you plenty of time to mingle and enjoy a drink before the wine glass tasting begins. Once the tasting has concluded, the bar will open again for 30 minutes, during which time you can browse RIEDEL glassware and talk to some of the RIEDEL UK team about any additional questions you may have.

 

The Waldorf Hotel, London

The following evening, the RIEDEL Wine Glass Experience heads to the Waldorf Hotel in London. Located in London's West End, the Waldorf Hotel has been a premier facility for over 100 years. After opening in 1908 with a glamourous champagne reception, it quickly became London's finest hotel destination for entertainment and dancing, gaining fame for its Tango dance events in the stunning and glamorous Palm Court.

This event begins at 7pm, also lasting for approximately 85 minutes, with doors opening at 6pm. The bar will be open from 6pm to 6.45pm, and again for 30 minutes after the tasting has finished.
