From the Editors

Founded in 1756, Austria’s Riedel Crystal is the world’s premier manufacturer of wine glasses. The Vinum series of glasses are made of over 24-percent lead crystal and were the first machine-made glasses to be specifically designed for a particular grape varietal. The shape of the two glasses in this set is specifically recommended to balance the fruit and acidity in full-bodied white wines, such as Albariño, White Bordeaux, White Burgundy, Chablis, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Condrieu, Hermitage Blanc, Marsanne, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Sauvignon-Semillon, Semillon, Soave, and Viognier. Each glass holds 12-3/8 ounces of wine and stands 7-3/4 inches high with a 2-3/4-inch wide bowl. <I>--Cristina Vaamonde</I>

Customer Response

Exactly as ordered!
I recently broke two glasses in the space of two days (very distressing) and ordered these to complete the set. They were exactly as advertised. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 was because 1 glass was broken in the initial shipment (Amazon shipped out a replacement which arrived a few days later).

The Glass Matters
I have used Riedel glasses for a while. I ordered from Amazon because of the good prices. Riedel stems are easily broken in our household. (Best to hand wash but I put them in the dishwasher :-() They are worth it, however! A friend recently commented that she loves to have wine at my house because of the glasses I use. They feel good. Wine is an experience that you need to have with Reidel glasses.
