The pinot noir glass is perfect for light-bodied red wines with high acidity and moderate tannin. This glass highlights the rich fruit-forward characters and tempers the high acidity of the wine. The balloon-shaped bowl captures all the nuances of the wine's aroma. Vinum is Riedel's basic varietal-specific stemmed series. Designed in 1986 by 10th-generation glassmaker Georg J. Riedel, Vinum was created to ensure every wine lover could afford varietal-specific glassware. Based on the handmade Sommeliers' range, machine production means Vinum can be offered at a more accessible price.
Riedel always adds a touch of class to your wine experience. These were purchased as a gift for a fellow Pinot Noir lover. The right glass enhances the aroma and taste of the wine as you sip it.
I was skeptical as to whether or not they would survive transport and was very happy when they arrived safely. I do think a little extra precaution could have been made such a bigger shopping carton and full padding, but it all worked out.. Laurie. Conshohocken, PA. Sat Dec 13 2025
