 Good glasses but one had small chip September 15, 2008
J. Williamson (Livonia, MI USA)
Love the packaging, love the glasses. Only problem is that one of the glasses had a very small chip in the rim. Since we took these as a gift to family in Canada, it was not feasible to return them. So, they will live with the chip and hope it doesn't get worse.
Very fragile June 2, 2008
BBA - New York (New York, NY USA)
good looking but fragile. tough to hand wash, and inconsistent results using the dishwasher which create chipped edges.
 Perfect Wine Glass for Large Hands June 2, 2008
Rita K. Kendrick
The light weight crystal is elegant. They are very nice red wine glasses, marketed for Pinot. We use them for any red wine and really like them. However, we both have large hands. These glasses would be too large to hold in one hand for a petite person or anyone having small hands. We probably would have gotten the next smaller size if we would have realize this. Otherwise,they work well and look chic.
Great gift for a wine lover. December 31, 2007

This will give your wine-loving friend a lot more pleasure than some over-wrought corkscrew. A great deal of your experience of wine comes from the aromas that develop in the air above the surface of the wine. A glass that forces the wine to have a large surface area for its volume and then narrows to concentrate the vapors will increase the flavor experience. Glasses with a thin lip seem to interfere less with the taste of wine than thicker (and cheaper) glasses. The shape of the glass makes a difference, too. Since we can only smell molecules that are in the air, the best wine-tasting glass is going to promote evaporation by exposing the largest possible surface area to the air. These glasses are wide at the waist and narrow at the top to get more from their wine. Does it make a difference? You bet-and in every taste test that I've been part of, Riedel glasses win hands down.
(For more information on the factors that effect the taste of wine-Storage, Air, Temperature, Food and Context, see New Short Course in Wine,The)
The wine simple tastes better in these glasses. The red wine Ouverture glasses are as close to an all-purpose glass as any and they're very inexpensive.
It shouldn't be necessary to mention that a wine glass should be clean and odorless. But sometimes restaurants, in their zeal to make their glassware clean use rinsing aids that leave behind a strong mineral smell. If you're spending a lot of money on a bottle of wine in a restaurant, sniff the empty glass first. At home, a film of grease can settle on a previously clean glass. It's no reflection on the quality of the housekeeping-cooking fats disperse in the air and settle on everything in a kitchen. An additional rinsing and a wipe with a clean towel are all you need.
