Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Ideally shaped for prolonging bubbles and chill, the six tall, slender flutes in this set are perfect for serving Champagne and other sparkling wines. The flutes are machine-blown of 5 percent lead crystal, providing excellent transparency and brilliance for showcasing a wine's color and clarity. Elegant, finely balanced, lightweight yet sturdy, the flutes have thin rims to ensure smooth sipping and are dishwasher-safe. Each flute is 8-3/4 inches high and has a capacity of 6-3/4 ounces. Located in a small Bavarian town that bears the company's name, Spiegelau has been making glassware for nearly 500 years. Wine glasses from Spiegelau's Authentis collection are notable for their strength and value. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful glasses at a good price, January 3, 2003

Ordered these glasses as I had received a gift coupon from work and I probably wouldn't have ordered them on my own as I didn't know much about wine glasses. Well, what a wonderful surprise! Besides being beautiful glasses to look at (thus making drinking Champagne or Asti a little more special) they do indeed enhance the drinking experience. I cannot believe the difference that these glasses make in my drinking pleasure. Highly recomemnded!

Flute vs Glass? The battle has lasted for years. If you leave the Champagne saucer out of the equation, it's more a matter of personal taste than fuction. Both flute and glass will work well, and both are offered by Amazon in the Authentis collection. I prefer the classic lines of the flute and these are great. The bowl tapers in to the top to intensify the aroma, and to cloax the bubbles to hang around "just a little bit longer". If you entertain with champagne, or any sparkling wine, you need these.

I agree that the packaging was not the greatest, but our set arrived in good condition. They were on sale when we bought them, and are happy with the quality of the glass. For a celebration, they look great, and have held up. We do not put them in the dishwasher, only hand wash for us; but the papers that came with the glasses said they could be washed in he machine.
