I broke one of my Riedel port glasses this evening. Always a sad occasion; an accident with an unseen casserole dish in a sinkful of soapsuds.
Please spare a moment and join me in reflecting on the passing of a faithful servant.
A toast is in order: the Riedel is gone. Long live the Riedel.

A Riedel gone forever
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

I raised my daily drinking glass - also a Riedel Vinum Port glass - in honor of its fallen brother this evening. 1991 Dona Matilde Colheita was, as always, properly dispensed.
