Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Several years ago, an article in Wine Spectator magazine noted the importance of a high-quality glass for improving a wine's looks and enhancing its bouquet. However, the magazine lamented, many of the attributes that increase the beauty and value of the glass actually obscure the wine. Spiegelau's Vino Grande series is part of a connoisseur line designed specifically for wine lovers. The thin rim means less distraction from the taste and texture of the wine. Tap the glass gently with your fingernail and you'll hear the distinctive ping of fine crystal.

This clear cognac glass measures 6 inches high and is designed to be cradled so your hand warms the brandy, releasing its bouquet. These glasses are billed as being dishwasher-safe and are sturdy enough for everyday use, as proven by their popular use in restaurants. Still, we'd recommend hand washing. --Irene Svete

These are fine brandy/cognac glasses, easily worth the price paid. Martell Cordon Bleu certainly didn't taste as good in the thick-rimmed snifter that I sufferd with for years. It finally broke and I bought these along with the port glass two-fer, and am very pleased. And now I have extra glasses to share the joy as well!!
