These Veritas Pinot Noir glasses are lightweight, sleek, and designed to bring out the best in your full-bodied red wines. Made with super-thin machine-blown crystal, they’re durable enough for everyday use but still feel elegant and special.

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.

A glass machine blown crystal of unsurpassed thinness and lightness. RIEDEL VERITAS combines the charm of a handmade glass with the consistent accuracy only a machine made glass can achieve. This series includes RIEDEL's signature varietal-specific shapes, with glasses for new world and Old world Syrah/Shiraz and Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Riesling, and Viognier/Chardonnay. Combining the best of riedel's glassware designs with the most up-to-date technology, this new series further endorses riedel's hallmark leadership in performance-driven consumer crystal drinkware. 

This Riedel Veritas Old World Pinot Noir glass is excellent for full-bodied red wines (more than 12.5 percent alcohol) with high acidity and moderate tannin. The shape of this glass directs the flow of wine onto the zone of the tongue which perceives sweetness, thereby highlighting the rich fruit and tempering the high acidity of the wine. The large bowl captures all the nuances of the wine's aroma.

Georg Riedel challenged his world class glass makers to create from lead-free crystal, the finest and lightest machine blown glass ever made. He proposed that it should be visually stunning, a delight to hold and price comparative against hand made glasses.

The result is Veritas, a range of glasses that are 15% taller than Vinum and 25% lighter, while still being dishwasher safe, break resistant and suitable for everyday use.

Georg Riedel says "Veritas combines the charm of a handmade glass with the consistent accuracy only a machine made glass can achieve."
