Riedel announce Biodynamic range

I'm sorry but I can't see why special glasses are need for biodynamic wines; possibly because I don't know what is a "biodynamic wine" ?

I think you are missing the point. The glass is not for biodynamic wines - it is supposed to improve any wine using biodynamic principles.

(And as you are obviously in another time zone, it is also only fair to point out that I am around 5 hours ahead of you.)

Do tell! How does a glass impart biodynamic principles to wine? Perhaps, you'd better tell what are biodynamic principles first.

'Tis all New Age hooh hah. Bluntly put, it's a load of bollocks - with brass knobs!

And it's April 1st!!!

Rumbled! But after my hint about the time zone I think I shall claim 2 victims :)

James - I presume your questions are rhetorical and cynical, and I agree completely - even in my April Fool blog post. Happy to discuss this further though if you want, as I have tried to understand what BD is all about.

Steve

Well played, Steve! Even though I am many hours ahead of you at the moment here in Christchurch, I was taken hook, line and sinker. Sad to say, none of it is beyond the possibility of Georg Riedel's ambitions.

Mark Lipton

When I first asked my questions I was not being cynical but sceptical, since it would not have surprised me if Riedel did introduce biodynamic glasses. However, Steve did warn me and I had forgotten about the International Time LIne ;-) April Fool me I guess!

Nice. As a result Prof Lipton has slipped back in time; from GMT +13, to a lesser GMT+12. Ouch!

greybeard, ((who is) slightly) further east than the good prof, but in the same time warp.

Great post! Struck with precision and credulity... :)
