Riedel is a luxury glassware manufacturer founded in 1756 in Bohemia, now a part of the Czech Republic. The company is known for its high-quality glassware that is specifically designed to enhance the enjoyment of wine and other alcoholic beverages. In the 1950s, Claus Riedel, the ninth-generation head of the company, became convinced that the shape of a glass could dramatically affect the taste and aroma of wine. He began to experiment with different glass shapes and found that the size and shape of the bowl, as well as the width of the rim, could greatly impact the perception of flavor and aroma. With this knowledge, Claus Riedel began to design wine glasses with specific shapes that were tailored to different grape varietals and wine styles. For example, a glass designed for Cabernet Sauvignon would have a larger bowl and wider rim than a glass designed for Chardonnay, as Cabernet typically benefits from more exposure to air and Chardonnay requires less. Today, Riedel is considered one of the top glassware brands in the world, with a range of products that includes not only wine glasses but also decanters, tumblers, and other drinkware. The company remains family-owned and continues to innovate in the field of wine glass design, with new shapes and styles being developed regularly.
