Riedel Vinum Martini Glasses (Set of 2) is the essential piece for every home bar. The steeply rising sides of this glass provide an elegant piece for your favourite dry or dirty Martini.

Product Description

There's something very satisfying about the inverted cone shape of the classic martini glass. Riedel makes the Vinum martini glass in a smaller size than many, holding up to 4-5/8 ounces of a favorite Manhattan or gin martini. Measuring approximately six inches in height, each of the two glasses in this set feels beautifully balanced with a lanky stem that is not so thin that it is likely to snap during a lively cocktail party.

Made in Bavaria of crystal for superb brilliance and clarity, Vinum wine glasses are nevertheless affordable because they are machine-made rather than mouth-blown. Since its introduction in 1986, the popular Vinum collection has grown to contain nearly two dozen different glasses. While all Vinum glassware is dishwasher-safe, Riedel recommends washing the crystal by hand to prevent detergent residue that can affect wine taste.

Welcome To Riedel

The company RIEDEL is a family owned, 300 year-old crystal company known to be the inventor of varietal specific stemware. Riedel is the first company in history to recognize that the taste of a beverage is affected by the shape of the vessel from which it is consumed, and has been recognized for its revolutionary designs which complement primarily alcoholic beverages.

2016 is a year of anniversaries for Riedel. The company is celebrating being in business for 260 years while Vinum - the company's most successful glassware range - is turning thirty. 1986 was not just an important year for Riedel but for all wine lovers around the world. The launch of the machine-made Vinum glass collection by Riedel Glass fundamentally changed the drinking glass culture. In 1973, Claus J. Riedel, the ninth generation of the family-run company, introduced a wine friendly, handcrafted and hand blown range of glasses. The 'Sommeliers' range is now world famous. In 1986, his son, Georg J. Riedel, presented a further innovation which would become even more significant: the first varietal-specific machine-made glass in history – Vinum!
