J&L Lobmeyr
Vienna
In his shop you will find his own creations, his famous art nouveau crystals, but also the famous Riedel Glass - this company is the first in the long history of glass to design its shape according to the character of the wine - so it is said! Thus today they are regarded as the inventor of the functional wine glass.
Rather than explaining too much about this wonderful product, we would like to publish two quotes about this incredible Austrian hand craft:
'The finest glasses for both technical and hedonistic purposes are those made by Riedel. The effect of these glasses on fine wine is profound. I cannot emphasize enough what a difference they make.' (source: Robert M. Parker, Jr. The Wine Advocate)
'The Riedel family has never stamped its name on a single bottle of wine. But over the past 50 years, this Austrian clan of master glass makers has done more to enhance the oenophile's pleasure than almost any wine making dynasty'. (source: TIME MAGAZINE)
