A postiing on our local neighborhood listserve indicates this new place has been open for about two weeks. It is just south of the Van Ness Metro stop on the East side of Connecticut. The review on the listserve was favorable....

Jim, Thanks for your recent post on the Amazon deal for 4 Riedel Vinum glasses. We’ve been toying with switching to Riedel for literally years, but couldn’t overcome the double barriers of retail cost and trying to...

over my sandwich and went to town. $6. Unbelievable. This place Riedel's (maybe Riedell's?) is near the UDC metro, on Connecticut just above Van Ness. It is a) outstanding, b) cheap, and c) definitely open during lunch (I asked.)...

Or pink rather right at the bottom of the bowl? I use this glass for just about everything including red wine, white wine, beer, spirits, etc. Can anyone hazard a guess? Thanks

I am buying a set of Riedel Vinum glasses as a gift. The recipients drink mostly red wine of Italian origin (Sangiovese-based, Super Tuscans, Brunello, Amarone), though also enjoy California full-bodied reds with regularity...

The San Francisco Chronicle offers a thumbnail guide to the history of beer-related glassware.

I’d like to buy a nice set of champagne glasses as an engagement present for a friend. The couple are beginning to develop their palate for wine and have started stocking up on Riedel glasses. Should I purchase Riedel...

Riedel's Zin glass is shaped much like their Bordeaux glass but is smaller. Most Pinot glasses have a relatively large, very round shape to pick up the more delicate aromas of Pinot.

Yes...Riedel's is quite good. We went on Super Bowl Sunday and had a sampler—highlights were pulled pork and the St. Louis style ribs. Beef ribs and short ribs were less notable. The brisket was good on the second try...the...

I’m about to upgrade my wine glasses. I am going with Riedel, I just don’t know which model yet. I like the stemless glasses, but I’m not sure if they are worth the investment. I want something that is pretty...

Not to specifically recomment Riedel — they break far too easily, IMHO — but in their Vinum line, I’d recommend the following: for all-round red, something like this — http://www.riedel...

I’m looking for some decent stemware in somewhat large quantities – 40 -100. I’m planning on doing food and wine tastings with a sommelier and I’m looking for something nice that isn’t going to cost...
