I had two of these glasses previously then broke one. I love the size of these glasses and searched hard to find a replacement. They are very delicate glasses so I would highly recommend hand washing and drying.

These wine glasses are wonderful. Not only do they look great and hold a large amount of wine, they are durable and an excellent thickness. I highly recommend them!

Riedel glasses are THE best. Have never been disappointed in any of the styles I have bought. These were purchased as a gift for a friend who is a wine-lover and was looking for a "big" glass. Well, these certainly fit the bill! Personally, they are too big for my personal preferences, but I know our friend will love them. If big is better in your book, these will be perfect for you.

I just wanted to get these glasses for their sheer size, similar to you-know-who's:"the big *ss glass". Boy did these deliver! I own a pair of the Vinum Extreme Cabs and consider them to be large format glasses, well these Vinum XL's pretty much dwarf those stylish little guys. Same Reidel quality you would expect, just more of it:Super-thin leaded crystal, nice weight, nice thick, wide base. So if size matters ;) these monsters are pretty much the largest quality vessels out there short of a novelty.
