RIEDEL Sommeliers Champagne Flute

The classic Champagne flute is perfect for light, fresh, dry champagnes, proseccos and sparkling wines. Its slimline shape is great to encourage the bead in champagne and sparkling wine, making it the choice for those connoisseurs who are after a thin and elegant flute.

The glass includes a 'sparkling point' to aid the formation of bubbles.



This product is made of clear crystal glass.

Sommeliers was the world’s first wine friendly glass collection and a design revolution created by Claus J. Riedel (9th generation). The range adheres to the Bauhaus design principle of form follows function, as Claus J. Riedel had discovered that certain wines showed more depth and better balance when enjoyed from certain shapes. Thin-blown and unadorned, Sommeliers was the beginning of RIEDEL's dominance of the global wine glass market.

This product is handmade.
Our master glassmakers individually craft each item so every piece has a unique character. Due to the nature of crafting, small tolerances in the size and weight of each product, tiny bubbles, imperfections, or slight surface variations are an acceptable part of the process.

Sommeliers

The original Grape Varietal Specific collection

Sommeliers changed glassware forever after Claus J. Riedel recognized that the size and shape affect your perception of aroma and flavor. Each glass was designed specifically for wine enjoyment, with help from experts such as Robert Parker and winemakers including Gaja, Guigal, and Robert Mondavi. The shapes are now a benchmark for modern glassware, only improved on by the Riedel family.
