The Veloce Cabernet / Merlot is RIEDEL's glass for the two grapes that anchor Bordeaux and much of the New World. It belongs to the Veloce collection, introduced in 2022, which takes the varietal-specific bowl shapes the house is known for and produces them as premium machine-made crystal.
The specification is straightforward. The glass is sold as a set of two in transparent crystal, it stands on a 100 mm base, and it is dishwasher safe. Machine production keeps the line accessible while holding the bowl geometry RIEDEL developed for Cabernet and Merlot over decades.
In the cellar, this is the glass for the bottles that get opened most. Pour young Bordeaux, Napa Cabernet or Right Bank Merlot, and the bowl is shaped to present the structure those wines are built on. The US RIEDEL site lists the set of two at USD 99.00, available through riedel.com.
