THE RIEDEL MARK OF QUALITY - Working with the Italian Sommelier association A.I.S.
(Associazione Italiana Sommeliers) Claus Riedel unveiled the world’s first gourmet glass series in Orvieto in 1973.
The series comprised 10 sizes.
The world of wine has changed radically since then.
Today, there are regions and continents producing wine which did not exist or were unknown at the time.
Sommeliers has developed into a comprehensive, state-of-the-art "Vitrum-Vinothek".
As a result of global demand, Sommeliers now represents the benchmark among wine glasses and is the most successful hand-made glass series in the world.
Every glass is an individual piece, with the upper part blown into shape and the stem and base shaped by hand using methods that were developed around the time of Christ's birth.
Our glass makers contribute the talent, skill and care required to give the Sommeliers series the hand-crafted finish that our customers expect. The hand-made Riesling Grand Cru/ Zinfandel from the Sommeliers series is made from the finest crystal glass and impresses with its classic design for unique enjoyment.
