Riedel "O" Wine Tumbler (Set of 2): Syrah / Shiraz (Old World)

The Shiraz glass is perfect for balancing the gripping tannins and concentrated fruit typical of medium-bodied red wines.

This shape was developed between 1993-1995 following sensory workshops in major Shiraz growing regions, and has become the most versatile red wine shape in the RIEDEL range. With a slightly tapered opening, the large bowl develops the intense aromas, and demontrates mouthfilling fruit, dignified structure, and a long sweet finish on the palate.

This pack contains two glasses.

Caring for your RIEDEL Crystal

• RIEDEL glasses are dishwasher safe. RIEDEL exclusively recommends MIELE
• To avoid stains: use soft water (low mineral content)
• To avoid scratches: Avoid glass contact with other glass or metal
• To remove stains: use white vinegar
• If available use a stemware rack

If washing by hand

• Wash the glass under warm water (use detergent and rinse the glass carefully)
• Glass polishing: Use two polishing cloths, never hold the glass by the base to polish the bowl
• Stem snap: Occurs through mishandling = torque or bend pressure at the stem
• Storage: Avoid glass storage in kitchen cabinets which have strong aromas that translates into glass

Microfiber Polishing Cloth (Cloth Care)

• Wash at boiling temperature (to kill bacteria) with odorless soap
• Should be machine washed at min. 170° F/75° C
• Never use fabric softener when rinsing your microfiber polishing cloth (avoids grease film on surface)
