RIEDEL Superleggero premium machine-made

CAUTION: This Is A Grape Varietal Specific Wine Tool.
In homage to the 50th Anniversary of Sommeliers, RIEDEL reintroduces Riedel Superleggero, and sets a new benchmark for premium machine-blown wine glasses.
The RIEDEL Superleggero is a masterpiece of state-of-the-art-technology.
The perfection of a 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 machine to date.
RIEDEL Superleggero glasses are fine-tuned instruments, specifically shaped to enhance your wine enjoyment. Perfectly balanced, grape varietal specific and with the look and feel of a handmade glass.
The collection features eight grape varietal shapes.
Each glass carries a grape-varietal specific code on the center of the base to identify the grape-variety - for further information visit www.riedel.com.

Exactly what I was searching for, the thinness of Veloce series with the classic shapes. They really feel as thin as hand-made Zaltos whose shapes I don't prefer.

First of all, a huge congratulations on this achievement! Learning the details and story behind this project made me, even more, appreciative. Also, learning that handmade glasses will eventually die down is somewhat breathtaking.

At 4:30, that is definitely a Bordeaux glass which is validated also by the chart. It is not a Cabernet Sauvignon glass as narrated.

You are absolutely right, unfortunately an error has crept in here.

[@Wine_guy93]

@@RiedelTheWineGlassCompany isn’t a Bordeaux glass used for Cabernet Sauvignon? if so, what’s the error then?

[@JnB-fb3gv]

Bordeaux wines are often made with an high percentage of Cabernet. Even for an 100% Cabernet Sauvignon Wine the Bordeaux glas is the right choice. So Mr. Riedel is right: R8 is the Cabernet Sauvignon Glas also called Bordeaux Glas…

[@RiedelTheWineGlassCompany]

​@@Wine_guy93That´s correct! The only small clarification is that the glass is correctly named Bordeaux Grand Cru, not Cabernet as initially mentioned. Both Bordeaux and Cabernet wines are perfectly enjoyed from the RIEDEL Superleggero Bordeaux Grand Cru glass. Cheers to clarity and the pleasure of fine wine!

So nice - until he gets to R8 as the glass denomination. There is no Cabernet Sauvignon, it's what wine freaks have always treasured as their Grand Cru Bordeaux Glasses by Riedel. And you can pry the eight ones I have from my dead, cold hands. Thank you for giving the base a different laser engraving. It still pleases me to send people the video of handmade stemware of that opulence and precision. This is where even mediocre wines can shine. And congratulations on going to the future with actual machine manufacturing so those beauties are now available to a wider audience.
