Riedel Sommeliers wine glasses were praised by Robert Parker as 'The finest glasses for both technical and hedonistic purposes'.

  • Praised by Robert Parker as the finest glasses for both technical and hedonistic purposes
  • Mouth-blown with lead-free crystal
  • Single stem

Riedel Sommeliers Sauternes (P/N 4400/55). The concentrated, distinct profile of this sweet French dessert wine calls for a vessel created with those attributes in mind. The unusual shape of the glass is immediately apparent; the reason for its unconventional curve lies in the qualities of Sauternes itself.

  • The shape directs the wine to the places on the palate where the sweetness doesn't overshadow the special acidic zest.
  • The deep golden hue of a well-aged Sauternes is maximized by the brilliance of mouth-blown lead-free crystal.
  • Stands 8 inches tall, with a maximum capacity of 13 oz. for an average serving size of 5 oz.

Recommended for: Ausbruch, Auslese (sweet), Barsac, Beerenauslese, Dessertwine, Jurancon Moelleux, Monbazillac, Recioto di Soave, Sauternes, Trockenbeerenauslese, Vins Liquoreux

Why choose this glass over similar glasses?

  • One of few glasses specifically intended for Sauternes, but also suits a number of other dessert wines.
  • Riedel has a reputation as the worldwide leader and most innovative manufacturer of high stemware.
  • Robert Parker declares, "The effect of [Riedel Sommeliers] glasses is profound. I cannot emphasize enough what a difference they make."
