Riedel Sommeliers Cabernet / Merlot / Bordeaux Wine Glass (1)

Best glasses available for big cabs and Bordeaux. But handle with care: even with careful hand washing you may shatter the thin crystal. Two of the glasses arrived shattered in the box. A quick e-mail to customer service and they were promptly replaced no questions asked.

Love the glass, however, I have had two break over the years. I think there should be a return policy for broken glasses. One was my fault. The other class literally broke in my hand. I think the stem is too thin for the size of the bowl.

I bought these glasses for my husband's birthday. He likes more expensive wine so I figured these glasses would be worth the money. They are very stylish and provide an excellent glass for the wines. They are obviously fragile but we haven't had any issues with them cracking or breaking - we just wash them by hand carefully. Overall a great quality product!

BEAUTIFUL QUALITY

A great glass for special occasions. Don't let anyone else wash it...too delicate & expensive to replace.

If you have a top of the line product it should be top of the line and without defect, even mouth blown products!!! These glasses at over [$] a pop should have been weeded out of the sommeliers collection as they were poorly finished on the stems and had visible airbubbles in the bowl!!! I would like to return them but the hassle of packing and shipping such fragile stems is more daunting than I care to think about. They were a gift and I was embarrassed when I used them with my husband! I have several other types of this glass and none of them came in such poor shape, what a bummer!

Definitely enhances the red wine experience. However, you have to be extremely careful when washing because of the large, delicate bowl of the glass.

Totally elevates the dining experience. Our senses are awakened when the Sommeliers are on the table.

These are very beautiful glasses ... and very delicate. This recent purchase was to replace a glass that we broke.

expensive, handle with care.

This was a gift (a pair of glasses)for friends. [...]

These are great glasses for bordeaux type wines, but they are extemely delicate and must be handled with care.

Outstanding product that contains one of life's best drinks!

Love all the Riedel products.

Although fragile and delicate to clean.....this is the only glass to drink wine from. The Somellier Series from Reidel is the ultimate in wine enjoyment. Why pay for expensive wine and then drink it from a glass which is less than perfection. Expensive but well worth it.
