excellent size and shape
Several years ago my husband and I took “wine class;” that is, a community course about wines, food pairings, history, etc. The teacher had mentioned that larger, crystal glasses were perfect for red wines, but we dallied for a few years before finally getting a set. Frankly, I was surprised at how great these glasses were. They are a really nice size, only moderately larger than the usual wine glasses, but about twice as large as the less expensive kind you find at discount stores. The shape is elegant, perfect for casual as well as nice dinners.They really do improve the overall experience of red wines. The larger bowl means the wine gets exposed to more air and can breathe. My husband is convinced the very slight lip on the glasses helps as well. Also, your nose gets down into the glass when you drink, and since scent and taste are so closely linked it really improves the overall flavor. We’ve used these with grenache, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, zinfandel, and blends.My only complaint is that these are somewhat more delicate than I’m used to. It’s not a complaint about the glasses themselves, but more of a warning to others. The stem on one broke the very first day we used it, after a relatively light tap against a casserole dish sitting next to it in the kitchen. I bought a second set and hand wash them, as I wouldn’t personally put these through the dishwasher because they are somewhat thin. For the price, I would definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys red wines.

Small for a red wine glass, perfect for me …
This is my favorite wine glass and I have been using the red wine version for years. This glass is perfect for everyday wine drinking, red or white wines are fine. Ice cubes? Go for it. It’s a perfect ‘intermediate’ size, much closer to a traditional white wine glass than a red. You can pour yourself a nice small half glass, something like 125 ml. This is a small glass but the rim opening is wide and the glass is thin, so drinking is perfect. I really don’t need another wine glass. But wine snobs will cringe drinking a good red wine from this glass.I’ve ordered several sets of two over the years. Why? Although these glasses are fairly hardy for crystal, the bowl will break if you tip the glass over on granite or get a little too aggressive drying them. You can break the stem.

Very Nice Glasses
I was afraid they would be very fragile until I dropped one. They are a lot more durable than they look. These are very nice beer glasses and I use them all the time

Decent daily glass
More like a water glass than a wine glass. Squatty. Durable glass.

“Wine Tastes Better in Riedel…”
Fantastic glasses; good value.Although I have broken countless wine glasses in my lifetime, I still enjoy wine more in half-way decent glasses. What’s worse than enjoying a decent wine and seeing the seam visible on your wine glass? Someone who reviewed these glasses before me wrote “wine tastes better in Riedel glasses.” You know what? He was right!These white wine glasses are nicely balanced, reasonably priced, and well made. They are a little on the small side, but then again, it’s white wine.Now to see how long they last before I break them…

Love these glasses
These are huge, but thatâs a good thing. Lots of room to swirl. Iâm tempted to get rid of all my other glasses because these are so much better. Was looking for the smaller glass in the second photo but apparently itâs no longer available from Riedel. That one was found at a thrift store and seemed quite large to me. These were as close to it as I could find and they dwarf it. Didnât rate sturdiness and durability (is there a difference?) because Iâve used them only a few times, but I suspect theyâre quite fragile. I wash them very carefully by hand.

Very nice glass for daily use
This is our daily glass, fits well in our cupboard and not so expensive I worry about breaking them (but I don’t let my teenage son wash them, he has a knack….). Crystal at a reasonable price, nice bowl shape, and not so big I over-pour – I love these. I hardly ever get out the larger glasses except for special bottles/occasions. Turns out many of the employees at my local marchand du vin also use these daily.Although I am told these are dishwasher safe I always hand wash. 90% of those I have broken were broken in the washing process – be careful to not stress the stem or try to cram a sponge or cloth into the bowl and you will be fine.For those expecting a larger bowl, can’t believe you didn’t look at the measurements in the listing and get a ruler out to see what it was. For my part, I am a repeat buyer so I knew what I was getting.

These replaced a broken (through carelessness) glass for our every day use and provide casual elegance

Great all purpose glass I find for any style of wine. Wouldnât want it to be the only glasses I had, but perfect for say the cottage or trailer!

Wir benutzen sie sowohl als Weingläser als auch Biergläser. Unsere Gäste meinen daraus schmeckt das Bier doppelt so gut.
