The Noka-Riedel Experience

Filed under: Dining, Wine

Red wine and chocolates, you can't get a much more perfect pairing for romance than that. The inspiration for the NOKA-RIEDEL Experience came from 10th generation glass maker George Riedel and his exquisite glassware, and it includes one of two combinations of chocolate and glasses. There's the "2-piece Vintages with 2 Cabernet Glasses" or the "4-piece Truffles with 2 Champagne Glasses."

Apparently when George Riedel visited the NOKA Chocolates boutique in Dallas for a tasting he said that combining the chocolates with champagne in a RIEDEL varietal-specific glass resulted in an experience that was "beyond words." $96-$104

The glass "O" Sake Set by Riedel offers a beautiful way to introduce sake into your home. Riedel actually conducted tastings with sake experts from Japan when designing these, keeping in mind that they wanted to glasses to be varietal, intended to be ideal glassware for serving sake. This means that all the flavors and aromatic notes of the sake will be brought out to their fullest when decanted into the small carafe and served in these glasses. Price: $38.
