Amazon.com Review
Crafted from premium lead-free glass, Riedel's Wine Series is an attractive and functional line of wine glasses, featuring the most popular bowl shapes of the more expensive Vinum collection. The glasses are machine-made in Europe by renowned glassmakers and feature a faceted stem with tiered decorations at the top and base. The thin rims are cut and polished so that wine flows well onto the tongue, and the bowl shapes emphasize bouquet. This set of four glasses is designed to bring out the best qualities of Zinfandel and Riesling wines by balancing acidity, tannin, and fruit. Versatile and handsome, they are also recommended for serving Bardolino, Chianti, Dolcetto, Montepulciano, and Sangiovese. Each glass stands 8-3/4 inches high and holds 13-3/8 ounces at full capacity. --Emily Bedard

Customer Reviews

Review the product not the shipping
We have used Riedel glasses for years. With Amazon Prime, they can be ordered and delivered in a day or two max. The prices are fair, and as we pay no tax (still?) in Texas for this, the price gets even better.

The glasses themselves are beautiful, simple but elegant. I actually think the wine tastes better out of them. I am reasonably certain it is all psychological, but they are great to use every day or for a nice elegant event.

Damaged on arrival
I purchased this product as a gift from a bridal registry. When I received the product, I could already hear the broken glass in the box. The product was not packaged properly for shipment. Therefore, I had to return the product and purchase a gift elsewhere which was stressful because the bridal shower was coming up and i had no gift! The only good thing was the ease of returning but otherwise, purchasing these glasses was a complete waste of time.. Moral of the story-- BE CAUTIOUS ABOUT PURCHASING FRAGILE ITEMS FROM THIS SELLER!
