From the Editors
Riedel Vinum Wine Glasses make every drop of wine taste its best. Riedel revolutionized glassware by customizing the shape of wine glasses to a particular type of wine. Each wine glass is fine-tuned to direct the flow of the wine onto parts of the palate that will best express the flavors and aromas of a specific wine varietal. The fine crystal offers superb clarity so you can experience the wine's color and texture. Moreover, all machine made Vinum stems are completely dishwasher safe. Made of over 24% leaded crystal. The Riedel Vinum Cognac X.O. Glasses are not only beautifully designed, they bring out the best qualities of fine Cognac. The gently curved bowl and flared lip of the glass concentrates and releases the complex aromas and flavors of the Cognac. A superb way to savor every precious drop. Size: 7-1/4"H, 6-3/4 oz. Riedel Model # 6416/71

Customer Response
Perfect for cognac
I purchased a pair of these glasses for my father and he loves them. He's a connisseur of cognac and liked these glasses as an alternative to the standard snifter style glass.
All the difference in the world
I've recently been reintroducing myself to brandy, having focused my attention over the last years on wine and whiskies. When I noticed my glassware had a huge hole in it--no brandy snifter--I did some research and discovered that snifters hadn't been taken seriously by cognac lovers for a long time. Too much surface area means too much alcohol in the nose and much of the fruit from the cognac is lost in the burn.
The glasses have been every bit as perfect for brandy and cognac as advertised and they are easily the most beautiful glasses in an extensive collection. They're even gorgeous when they're empty (although better with cognac, of course).
