Know before you buy
The egg shape is specifically engineered to concentrate the bouquet of sparkling wines. By narrowing toward the top, it directs the complex aromas toward your nose while allowing the broader mid-section to aerate the wine, intensifying the flavor layers.
Yes, the RIEDEL Fatto A Mano collection is designed to be dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the brilliance of the crystal and the integrity of the hand-finished stem, we recommend using a gentle cycle and ensuring the glasses are spaced properly to prevent contact.
The Fatto A Mano series combines two distinct techniques: the bowl is machine-blown for perfect consistency and thinness, while the vibrant dark blue stem is individually handcrafted by master glassmakers. This fusion results in a glass that is both technically precise and artistically unique.
Traditional narrow flutes often trap aromas, limiting your sensory experience. The wider rim on this glass is designed to release a broader range of aromatics, allowing you to fully appreciate the nuances of vintage champagnes and high-quality sparkling wines.
Yes, these glasses are crafted from fine lead crystal. This material is chosen for its superior clarity, brilliance, and ability to be blown into the delicate, thin-walled shapes required for optimal wine enjoyment.
