Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Guided by the idea that "content commands the shape," Riedel of Austria consistently earns first place among the makers of fine wine glasses. The Vinum series is the world's first line of machine-made glasses formed specifically to suit varietal characteristics. Crafted to exacting standards, the glasses are 24-percent lead crystal with a beautifully balanced feel. They offer the taste-enhancing benefits of Riedel's hand-formed glasses without the top-shelf expense.

Ideal for celebrations or intimate occasions, the Vinum champagne glass is designed to highlight the complicated bouquet and effervescence of champagne. Its narrow bowl is trim and sleek, designed to direct the bubbly onto the optimum part of the tongue, and its broad foot ensures stability. Six in all, these stems stand 8-7/8 inches high and have a 5-5/8-ounce full capacity. Washing by hand is recommended. --Emily Bedard

The glasses are excellent and they actually MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE in the experience of drinking champagne. Never thought it would be true but it did make a difference. Amazon was great. One glass was broke so they replaced the whole set immediately. Had the new set in less than 4 days. I was extremely pleased with their response. I will continue to shop with Amazon.

As Riedel wineglass users we were looking for some Champagne glasses, and pleased with the Riedel quality we decided to take these ones, and the galsses met our expectations. They look very nice, have the right shape to get the best out of your Champagne and of course they have the Riedel quality, like everything else from this Austrian manufacturer.
