The Riedel Veritas Riesling/Zinfandel Glass represents a breakthrough in glassware technology that began with Georg Riedel’s ambitious challenge to his team. He wanted something seemingly impossible – the finest and lightest machine-blown crystal glass ever made that would still be practical for everyday use.

The result is pretty impressive. These Veritas glasses stand 15% taller than the Vinum series and weigh 25% less, yet they maintain excellent durability – they’re dishwasher safe, break resistant, and perfect for daily enjoyment. It’s like getting the elegance of handmade crystal with none of the fragility or fussiness.

This particular glass is specially designed to showcase Riesling’s unique characteristics. The shape works to perfect your perception of the wine’s fruit notes, minerality, acidity, texture and aromatics – essentially guiding all those complex flavours to a satisfying finish. Though created primarily for Riesling, it works beautifully with Zinfandel too.

As Georg Riedel himself puts it, “Veritas combines the charm of a handmade glass with the consistent accuracy only a machine made glass can achieve.”

It’s the perfect balance of sophisticated design and practical durability for wine enthusiasts who appreciate quality without compromise.
