The Art of the Glass: A Riedel Performance Experience

Experience the RIEDEL Performance Kit Seminar, an immersive tasting that explores how the shape of a glass can transform a wine’s aroma, structure, balance, and overall expression through guided comparisons using RIEDEL’s Performance series.

The seminar is led by Sylvie Rochon, West Coast Regional Sales Manager for RIEDEL Crystal USA, who brings more than 25 years of fine wine and luxury brand experience with Huneeus Vintners, Grgich Hills Estate, and Kosta Browne. Joining her is Jacob Steiner, an accomplished sommelier whose distinguished career spans fine dining and luxury hospitality, including work alongside Michelin-starred chefs and at the exclusive Yellowstone Club. An Advanced Sommelier, Jacob combines deep wine expertise with an engaging, approachable style that appeals to seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike.

Together, Sylvie and Jacob will deliver a dynamic, hands-on experience highlighting the powerful connection between glassware, wine, and sensory expression. Each guest will take home the complete four-glass RIEDEL Performance Tasting Set, a $198 retail value, extending the experience well beyond the seminar.
