"Beautiful but fragile"
I have owned Riedel Vinum Bordeaux glasses for a decade and love them for their size, shape, clarity, and elegance. However, I have stopped purchasing them. Why? All one needs to do is look at them firmly and they break. My wife and I finally made a rule never to wash them after drinking any amount of wine. Then we escalated to not washing them if we were tired or distracted. Finally, we solved this ongoing problem by purchasing Spiegelau Vino Grande Red Wine Glasses recommended by a friend. At initial evaluation they look virtually identical to the Riedels, but on closer inspection are slightly thicker although an almost perfect match in shape. The feel is similarly elegant. The Reidels have been moved to the back of the cupboard. After breaking 3 or 4 Reidels per year, we have not broken a single similar Spiegelau in 2 years.

"A Necessity!"
I thought these were an unnecessary extravagance when my husband first purchased them. Now, I refuse to use anything BUT these glasses when we drink wine. The price makes them perfect for everyday; the performance makes them a necessity for the true wine connoisseur.

What our customer's say!

"You can't go wrong with these glasses.", Great for every day, don't keep these in the cabinet or china hutch. Life is too short to drink cheap wine or use cheap glasses and these are really affordable Riedel. Use a quality glass for your wine - you are worth it. The shape of these glasses will bring out all the nuances a Bordeaux, Cab or Meritage.

"wonderful until they shatter", These are for the most part, magnificent wine glasses. Notice I said for the most part. The problems stem not from the experience of drinking the wine, but from what happens afterwards. It seems as if anything-- and I do mean anything-- can and will shatter these fragile glasses. They have broken in the dishwasher; broken when washing by hand (as gently as if I were washing a baby's bottom); broken when being tucked away for the night; broken even when glanced at (though it was with some degree of malice). And this state of fragility is not limited to the cabernet glasses, or, as I refer to them - the brunello glasses. It happens with an equal frequency to the barolo, chianti, and even the meek and diminutive pinot grigio size.

If you enjoy drinking wine, and don't mind stocking a garage full of wine glasses, then please click the button to purchase these. They are fine glasses while they last.

"beautiful glassware", Riedel makes a beautiful wine glass and the Vinum Bordeaux/Cabernet doesn't disappoint. It is wonderful to hold and lovely to look at. Riedel makes glasses in different price ranges, which is nice for the consumer who doesn't want to spend a lot of money but appreciates good design.

"great product; damaged", I ordered 8 Riedel Vinum Bordeaux glasses. 2 of the first four were chipped. I returned them and was sent replacements. One arrived with the stem broken. In checking with a local store, I saved only the tax and would have had less trouble and perfect condition glasses.
The glasses themselves are great.

"Wine Taste Better!", Did the taste test with regular wine glasses and was amazed that I could easily tell the difference.
Fragile, but not a problem if you carefully hand wash.
Highly recommeded!
