Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Invoking the spirit of Italian vineyards, Lenox has created the Tuscany Classics line of stem- and barware with elegant proportions and beautifully balanced shapes. These oval-shaped Grand Bordeaux glasses are structured specifically for the medium- and full-bodied bouquet generally found in Bordeaux wines. They add visual and tactile pleasure to your drinking, while providing adequate room for wine to develop. Crafted from full-lead crystal, the glasses stand 10-1/2 inches high, hold 26-1/2 ounces each, and sound a lovely ringing note during toasts. Lenox includes a lifetime replacement policy with the set. Washing by hand is recommended. --Emily Bedard

5.0 out of 5 stars Reidel quality at a fraction of the price!, July 11, 2003

I am wine snob/geek and know the difference that quality wine-specific stemware can make in the enjoyment of fine wine. These glasses match up with the best Riedels but you can buy. But here's the big difference: You can buy 8 Lennox classes for less than the cost of 2 comparable Reidels. It should be noted that just like Riedel, these glasses are made in Austria. We love drinking wine in these glasses, our friends love drinking wine in these glasses and you will love drinking wine in these glasses too.

One caution: I sure would like to know more about the "lifetime warranty" mentioned in the Amazon.com description, as nothing came with the glasses on this. However, this is not the first time that I have been milead by Amazon.com on warranty issues.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceeded expectations, October 16, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Lenox Tuscany Classics Grand Bordeaux, Set of 4 (Kitchen)

These glasses will 'wow' you right out of the box. I came back and ordered more. These glasses are the type you want to grab first if you ever have company over as their stature is gorgeous and the weight is nice in your hand. As to the question about the warranty, look for a little index card in the box. Basically, if you ever break one, Lenox will send you a new one for 1/2 of retail plus shipping.

2.0 out of 5 stars Awesome feeling but stems snap way too easily, December 27, 2007

Let me preface this by saying that these glasses are massive and feel awesome in your hand. I was so excited when they arrived and enjoyed drinking out of them tremendously. When I towel-dried the first glass, the long and thin stem snapped almost instantly and I was down to three glasses. I figured it must have been a fluke and used a new glass the second day. Being extra careful, I washed and dried this one successfully. During hand-washing the glass the third day it broke. Just as the first glass, the center of the long stem is simply too thin. Any kind of torque applied during washing or drying by hand will break the glass. Now the remaining two glasses are sitting on my shelf collecting dust. For me, this purchase was a complete waste of money. Maybe if you machine wash them you'd be okay. I hand wash and dry my Waterford wine glass every night without problems. I really liked the longer stem and goblet shape of the Lenox glasses but I'm two for two in breaking them.
