5.0 out of 5 stars Great Glassware, September 12, 2004

By	Great Faulkner's Ghost (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Riedel O Cabernet/Merlot Wine Tumblers, Set of 2 (Kitchen)

These are essentially the bowls from the professional quality Riedel Vinum glasses produced without stems. By doing without stems you get a glass that neatly fits in the dishwasher, and save about $10 per glass compared to the stemmed Riedel. I have been using these for several months and they are fabulous. Since they are non-lead crystal, they develop the bouquet due to microscopic "pores" that non-crystal glassware lacks. They really gleam, right out of the dishwasher. Best of all, the rims are thin and smooth, which is the luxury feel that premium glassware is all about.

If you are wondering which to buy as an "all purpose" red glass, I prefer the syrah/shiraz glass over the cabernet/merlot, even though I drink mostly cabernet. The syrah glass is just a bit taller and more graceful. But the difference is minor.

I have been a wine "nut" for over 20 years, and these glasses are teriffic. Buy them, and feel safe using them daily. They will improve the enjoyment of every wine you drink, from Gallo to Lafite

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent all purpose white wine tumblers, February 5, 2005

By	TheSharkMMV - See all my reviews

This review is from: Riedel O Chardonnay/ Viognier Wine Tumblers, Set of 2 (Kitchen)

Riedel crystal has always been the best brand of glassware for tasting and drinking wine, so I was excited when they came out with stemless wine tumblers. (With Riedel wine glasses, the stem is always quite fragile, and usually the first part to break, so I do not miss it that much). That said, the chardonnay/viognier tumblers are the closest in the O collection to being all purpose white wine tumblers. These are great especially for pinot grigio, chardonnay, viognier, and most other white wines. These are even good for sauvignon blanc and riesling, if you do not want to buy the tumblers specifically marked for those wines. The only white wines that I have found really need a different shaped glass are sweet wines such as Sauternes and icewine - I did not think that they brought out the bouquet in these as well as they might have.

Some wine experts might be concerned about warming these tumblers when they come in contact with your hand, but I have not found this to be as big a problem as I thought that it might be.
