Amazon.com Review
Europe’s Riedel Crystal is the world’s premier manufacturer of wine glasses. Riedel’s Wine series of glasses is among the company’s machine-blown lead-free offerings and offers a decorative departure from other simpler styles. These Cabernet/Bordeaux glasses each have a slender, four-edged stem and three delicate ridges that encircle the base and the top of the stem and catch the light to make a beautiful presentation on a holiday table. The bowl shape follows the philosophy of Riedel’s Vinum line of glasses, where each glass is uniquely developed for each type of wine. The glasses in this set of eight were specifically shaped to serve red wines, such as Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Red Meritage, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Rioja Sangiovese, Tempranillo, and Brunello di Montalcino. Each glass stands 9-1/4 inches high and holds 21-1/2 ounces of wine. --Cristina Vaamonde
Product Description
Crafted from premium lead-free glass, Riedel's Wine Series is an attractive and functional line of wineglasses, featuring the most popular bowl shapes of the more expensive Vinum collection. The glasses are machine-made in Europe by renowned glassmakers and feature a faceted stem with tiered decorations at the top and base. The thin rims are cut and polished so that wine flows smoothly onto the palate, and the bowl shapes emphasize bouquet. This set of two glasses is designed to highlight the flavors and aromas of Cabernet Suavignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, red Bordeaux, Rioja, and Tempranillo.

What a bargain!,

This review is from: Riedel Wine Series Cabernet/Merlot Glass, Set of 2 (Kitchen)
I was skeptical like everyone else so I put the Riedel glasses to the test...
Poured some wine into an everyday red wine glass and a Riedel glass. The difference is amazing. More aromas more taste to the palate. Convince yourself and try it. Janet from Huntington Beach, CA

Riedel Wine Glasses Are Great!!,

This review is from: Riedel Wine Series Cabernet/Merlot Glass, Set of 2 (Kitchen)
You can drink wine out of canning jars, coffee cups, or the bottle. I was doubtful when I read about how Riedel Wine glasses make the experience of drinking wine more enjoyable. I'm the worlds biggest skeptic.... and to top it off, I very cheap!! I purchased 8 Riedel Cabernet/Bordeaux Wine Glasses from Amazon... I got the free shipping option.... what a bargain, and yes I do enjoy the experience of drinking wine from these fine glasses. I went to a neighbors house and drank wine from a glass that was vastly inferior to the Riedel quality. I definately missed my Riedel wine glasses and now I'm definately a believer.

This review is from: Riedel Wine Series Cabernet/Merlot Glass, Set of 2 (Kitchen)
These glasses are great. very nice size - plenty of room for swirling. Oblong shape is great, height of glass is very nice. though they don't fit in the dishwasher top rack. Afraid to put on the bottom, so wash by hand. these glasses made an amazing difference drinking my cabernet instead of out of a rounder generic red wine glass. Great deal for the price, they have good "Thickness" to them, meaning they feel sturdy and fit in the hand nicely. they look nice -- not fancy crystal but at this price very nice quality. Highly recommend.
