1 Sept 2023 : Riedel with RAKA wines
RIEDEL
"The finest glasses for both technical and hedonistic purposes are those made by Riedel.The effect of these glasses on fine wine is profound."
- Robert M. Parker, Jr.
Riedel is a family owned crystal company known to be the inventor of varietal-specific stemware.
Established in 1756, Riedel was the first company in history to recognize that the taste of the beverage is affected by the shape of the vessel from which it is consumed, and Riedel has been recognised the world over for its revolutionary designs.
RAKA WINE
The wine was named after Raka, the beloved fishing boat of Piet Dreyer, proprietor of Raka wines. For more than three decades Piet has plied the seas of the southern ocean in search of the finest catch. The same passion has found home at Raka, where the Dreyer family now pursue the earth's bounty for the creation of fine wines.
With the rich blessing of earth and elements, the help of a dedicated workforce, the enthusiasm of winemaker Josef Dreyer and the advantages of a modern gravity flow cellar, Piet Dreyer produces his award-winning Raka wines.
