Riedel Vitis Syrah: Sculpted for Syrah & Intensely Flavored Reds

The Riedel Vitis Syrah glasses are expertly designed to enhance the bold, spicy, and expressive character of Syrah and Shiraz wines, capturing their full aromatic and structural complexity.

As part of the Vitis series—Riedel’s premium machine-made collection known for its tall pulled stems and varietal-specific precision—these glasses are tailored for Syrah from both Old and New World regions. Ideal for wines from Hermitage, Côte-Rôtie, Barossa Valley, and Paso Robles, the glass shape highlights dark fruit flavors, peppery spice, and savory undertones, while taming firm tannins and high alcohol content.

Each glass stands 10 inches tall and holds up to 22.4 ounces, allowing ample room for aeration. The wide bowl and narrowed rim focus the intense aromatics of blackberries, violets, smoked meat, and black pepper, while directing the wine across the palate in a way that enhances fruit expression and rounds off any harsh edges.

Machine-made in Germany from brilliant lead-free crystal, the Vitis Syrah glasses reflect Riedel’s fusion of visual elegance and technical performance. The pulled stem offers a sleek, modern profile and increased durability, while the seamless bowl-to-stem transition adds aesthetic refinement. These glasses are also dishwasher safe for ease of maintenance.

Sold as a set of two, the Riedel Vitis Syrah glasses continue Riedel’s legacy since 1756 of creating wine-specific glassware that transforms the tasting experience. With their distinctive height, balance, and clarity, they are a sophisticated choice for wine lovers seeking to get the most from robust reds.

Whether you're enjoying a Northern Rhône Syrah in The Villa Dubai or sharing a glass of bold Barossa Shiraz in Baniyas Abu Dhabi, the Riedel Vitis Syrah glasses offer precision, power, and elegance in every pour.
