5.0 out of 5 starsBest Ever Wine Glass
Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2016
The Riedel glasses come as close as possible to being the ideal wine glass. They are beautiful and fairly rugged, yet do not spill as easily as stemmed versions. What I like best about them is the thin and small profile- not heavy and thick like a lot of cheaper glasses. I also love the cost, as I don't have to worry so much if one gets broken.
The ones I purchased are the Chardonnay versions, which are small. We use these for all types of wine (sorry!), mostly due to the convenient size.
These glasses can be placed in the dishwasher, but be aware that the rims are delicate and will chip over time from being jostled in a powerful dishwasher as well as being "dinged" by the neck of a wine bottle when approaching to pour. If you want to wash them in the automatic dishwasher, my suggestion is to seek out the best, most protected place where they will be well contained and not move around on the rack at all.
All in all, these are our very favorite glasses, and are used often. At a price less than 10 bucks each, these are well worth the money. One note on purchasing; I recommend buying these separate from other items to make sure they are packaged appropriately for shipment.
