The Riedel Wine Glass Company is a family run company that dates back over 300 years, which has enjoyed immense success for their quality glassware. For eleven generations the Riedel Wine Glass Company has operated on the wine glass market producing quality wine glasses that will last a lifetime.

Every wine connoisseur knows that the shape of the wine glass is most important as the shape changes the taste, character, aftertaste, etc. of the wine.

The effect of these glasses on fine wine is profound. I cannot emphasize enough what a difference they make.” The Riedel Wine Glass Company certainly create small masterpieces with each wine glass invented, creating a true zest for life, a lifestyle and a piece of glass to cherish your whole life once you taste the difference the glass makes.
