RIEDEL’S VITIS COLLECTION WINS GOLD FROM THE WHITE STAR 2009 AWARD

Once again, Riedel is recognized for its innovative design!

Riedel’s elegant Vitis collection took first place in the glass category in the second annual “White Star”, an award given to the most innovative and groundbreaking design products, as voted by more than 15,000 readers of the German magazines Schöner Wohen, Essen & Trinken and Living at Home.

Chief editors Jenny Levie (Living at Home), Stephen Schafer (Schöner Wohen), and Wolfgang Zahner (Essen & Trinken für Jeden Tag) presented the Gold White Star to Riedel at a ceremony in the “bauwerk Köln.”

The readers voted among 109 products in 11 different categories; a total of 33 winners were presented a White Star — in Gold, Silver, or Bronze.

About Vitis: Vitis has a towering profile and graceful silhouette that adds a sophisticated presence to any table.  Aptly named, Vitis (the Latin word for ‘vine’), climbs skyward on a seamlessly pulled stem. This lead crystal series, designed by Georg Riedel, was created using the most advanced machine blown technology. Perfectly proportioned, Vitis is exquisitely balanced both in the hand and to the eye and features seven varietal-specific glasses that beautifully compliment New World wines.
