Max RiedelGUEST
And I, and I speak to at least 5,000 or more people a year personally about the function of a proper Riedel wine glass.

Max RiedelGUEST
People are shocked because they don't recognize the wine anymore, even though they have it in front of them in different shaped Riedel glasses, and not even including a competitor's glass, which I would motivate people to do to just see how well the Riedel glass works.

Max RiedelGUEST
But it's not done by just opening a good bottle of wine and having friends to share it with because sometimes we have a good experience, job well done.

Max RiedelGUEST
Sometimes we have a bad experience, and you blame everything and everybody, but never the shape of your wine glass.
