Riedel Tumbler Glasses, A Lovely & Calorie-Free Easter Gift
For an Easter gift idea that isn’t chocolate, take a look at these charming Happy O tumblers. The set includes 4 tumblers with color insets in pink, green, yellow, and blue, which not only add color to the Easter table. The pretty pastels are perfect for spring and summer. The color is only in the base of the glass, so it doesn’t interfere with the appearance of your beverages while it adds a charming note. Happy O tumblers are ideal for all drinks from juice to water—and wine, of course. While you can serve wine in all-purpose Happy O’s, of course, Riedel makes tumblers—stemless glassware with bowls shaped to accommodate individual wines. The bowls are shaped specifically to showcase Cabernet/Merlot, Pinot Noir/Nebbiolo, Viognier/Chardonnay, white wine, whiskey, and others. Introduced in 2004, Riedel’s The O Wine Tumbler was the first varietal-specific wine tumbler in history—a revelation for wine drinkers who wanted an alternative to stemware (clumsy to hold, too often breakable). Since most people moved away from holding the stem to holding the glass by the bowl, why not just create a series of tumblers. O is an innovative take on the casual wine glass, based on the benchmark shapes of Riedel’s Vinum series—premium stemware with bowls to bring out the best aromas and flavors specific varietals. Better yet, the O Tumbler fits into every dishwasher so broken stems are a thing of the past. And while you’re there, look at all the fine glassware. For a wine connoisseur, the Tasting Set contains four glasses from the Riedel Veloce series: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. These are the glasses that we use for our fine wines, and you’ll be surprised at the big difference they make. Just try your wines from generic wine glasses and then discover how the shape and size of a Riedel wine-specific glass enhances your perception of aroma and flavor. Riedel is an Austrian company that has been making fine glassware since 1756. A long-standing tradition of craftsmanship and innovation in glass-making—and their breakthrough engineering of fine wine glasses, specifically tailored to different wine varietals—have proven themselves to enhance the enjoyment of wine. Extensive research and development has shown wine connoisseurs that the shape and design of a glass can significantly impact the taste and aroma of wine. Each glass type is optimized for a specific wine varietal, including Champagne. And for people who don’t want so many different glasses, they have engineered better wine glasses for red wines and white wines. The company also produces spirits glasses and decanters, all crafted with the same level of precision and attention to detail. The brand is highly regarded by wine enthusiasts and professionals alike for its quality, craftsmanship, and ability to enhance the sensory experience of enjoying wine. It’s always a welcome gift. |
