Riedel Performance Sauvignon Blanc Wine Glass, Set of 2

Experience Sauvignon Blanc's full aromatic spectrum — from Marlborough's grassy, citrus-driven intensity to white Bordeaux's oak-aged honeyed complexity — with the Riedel Performance Sauvignon Blanc Wine Glass (6884/33). A glass with genuine heritage behind it: released to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the original Vinum Sauvignon Blanc glass, developed in direct collaboration with producers from Marlborough, New Zealand — the region that redefined what Sauvignon Blanc could be — and redesigned to suit the variety's evolving New World style while honoring its Old World origins.

Like all Performance glasses, the 6884/33 features the collection's defining innovation — a light optic impact inside the egg-shaped bowl that increases the inner surface area and has an astounding effect on the wine's aromatics, allowing the rich bouquet to develop its full, diverse range of aromas while minimizing the risk of over-concentration. The bowl size is deliberately generous — providing the space Sauvignon Blanc's aromatic personality demands to fully express itself, while the optic impact accelerates that expression so the wine opens up faster and more completely than it would in a smooth-walled glass.

The shape perfectly balances Sauvignon Blanc's characteristic combination of fruit and acidity on the palate for a harmonious, integrated taste experience — delivering the grassy freshness and citrus vibrancy of New World styles alongside the mineral complexity of Loire Valley expressions and the rounded richness of oaked Bordeaux Blanc in a single versatile vessel. Also recommended for dessert wines, Sémillon, Chenin Blanc, and Gewürztraminer. At 9-5/8" tall and approximately 15 oz capacity. Machine-made lead-free crystal. Dishwasher safe. Sold individually. From Riedel since 1756.
