Always Something New From Creation Wines
Serving your wine in the ‘correct’ glassware is as important as choosing the right wine for the occasion and serving it at the right temperature. So much of the bouquet, taste, balance and finish of a wine can be affected by the glass. That’s why we at Creation have invested in the Riedel Vinum collection of varietal-specific, cold-cut clear crystal glasses to showcase our wines.
Riedel glassware is internationally recognised as the ideal stemware for wine appreciation. Their custom-designed glasses transfer the wine straight onto your palate, ensuring that none of the flavours end up behind a speed bump on the rim of the glass.
