Riedel Veritas Shiraz (New World) Glasses (Pair)
Georg Riedel challenged his world class glass makers to create from lead 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.
The wines made from the Australian grape variety Shiraz, give a deep purple, almost inky color. The nose resembles intense, rich blackberry aromas. The flavors on the palate show mouth filling fruit, massive structure and a long sweet finish.
The Riedel Veritas New World Shiraz glass highlights the tannins, offering a perfect balance with the overwhelmingly concentrated fruit.
Georg Riedel says “Veritas combines the charm of a handmade glass with the consistent accuracy only a machine made glass can achieve.”
