merlot wine glasses

1. Posted: Jul 10 2008

   This is a very nice wine glass and the biggest red wine glass I have owned. It is significantly larger (28oz vs 22oz, about an inch taller and has a wider bowl) than the Riedel Vinum Red Wine Glasses I own. Personally, it is not as comfortable to hold due to the very large size. Also, be very careful hand washing all Riedel Red Wine Glasses as not to twist off the stem. I've done it twice when I thought I was being careful. My recommendation - skip the 'Vinum Extreme' line, stick with the 'Vinum' line.

   If you drink good wine, you need a good wineglass. The Riedel Vinum Extreme is an elegant wineglass, with a thin lip to focus your attention on the wine, a large bowl for swirling and to collect the wines vapors, and a simple design. Riedel is the gold standard in stemware. If you are drinking wine to get your girlfriend drunk, stemware from Bed, Bath, and Beyond will suffice. For the epicure, the Riedel Vinum series is well worth the investment.
