RIEDEL Sommeliers, introduced in 1973 by Claus J. Riedel, was the first wine-friendly glass collection in the world. Further developed in 1985 by Georg Josef Riedel as the first grape varietal-specific handmade glass series, it set the global standard for functional design. Today, under Maximilian J. Riedel, the collection continues to evolve. Each glass is handmade from fine crystal glass, expertly shaped to reveal the full character of every wine. A timeless icon of craftsmanship and innovation. Handmade glassware is crafted by master glassmakers using centuries-old techniques blending timeless craftsmanship with perfect form and function. Due to the nature of crafting, small variations, bubbles, or imperfections are an acceptable part of the process, making each piece a one-of-a-kind work of art.
The 270 Year Anniversary packaging was created to celebrate 270 years of RIEDEL, honoring a legacy of craftsmanship and innovation that began in 1756. This special presentation includes two glasses packaged in a commemorative anniversary design, marking this historic milestone for the brand. The packaging highlights the heritage of RIEDEL while offering an elegant way to experience the collection. Designed for both collectors and wine lovers, it serves as a tribute to more than two centuries of glassmaking tradition.
