Riedel Vinum Syrah/Shiraz Wine Glass, Set of 2

Bring out everything that makes Syrah and Shiraz extraordinary — at an accessible price point — with the Riedel Vinum Syrah/Shiraz Wine Glass, Set of 2 (6416/30). The Vinum collection was designed in 1986 by 10th-generation Georg J. Riedel as the world's first machine-made varietal specific glass series — taking the performance principles of the handmade Sommeliers range and making them available to every serious wine lover at a price that invites daily use rather than careful preservation.

The Syrah/Shiraz shape was developed between 1993 and 1995 through sensory workshops across the major Syrah and Shiraz growing regions, and has since become the most versatile red wine shape in the entire Riedel range. The large egg-shaped bowl with a slightly tapered opening develops the intense aromas of toast, black olives, and rich blackberry that define great Syrah, while delivering the wine's silky, velvety structure to the palate with tannins that melt into the fruit rather than clashing against it. At 22-7/8 oz capacity and 9-1/4" tall, this is a glass sized for bold, full-structured reds with room to breathe. Machine-made lead-free crystal. Dishwasher safe. Set of 2. From Riedel since 1756.

Key Product Features

• The World's First Machine-Made Varietal Specific Glass — Riedel Vinum Since 1986: Designed by 10th-generation Georg J. Riedel in 1986 to bring the performance of the handmade Sommeliers range to an accessible price point — the world's first machine-made varietal specific glass series, and the most versatile red wine shape in the Riedel collection.
• Developed 1993-1995 Through Sensory Workshops in Major Syrah-Growing Regions: The Syrah/Shiraz shape was refined through direct tastings with influential winemakers across the Northern Rhône, Australia, and other major Syrah regions — purpose-built to unite Old World Syrah's restraint and Northern Rhône complexity with New World Shiraz's opulent, mouthfilling fruit in a single glass.
• Large Egg-Shaped Bowl with Tapered Opening — Balances Tannins with Concentrated Fruit: The generous bowl develops intense aromas of toast, black olives, and rich blackberry before every sip, while the slightly tapered opening delivers the wine's silky, velvety structure to the palate with tannins that melt into the fruit and appear sweet rather than acerbic on the back palate.
• 22-7/8 oz Capacity, 9-1/4" Tall — Room for Bold, Full-Structured Reds to Breathe: At 22-7/8 oz and 9-1/4" tall, this glass is sized generously for Syrah, Shiraz, Hermitage, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Grenache, Malbec, Mourvèdre, Amarone, and other powerful, structured reds that demand room to open up and show their full complexity.
