Riedel Ouverture Magnum Red Wine Glass, Set of 6 plus 2 Bonus Glasses Reviews

Perfect for everyday use and an amazing value at 8 glasses for the price of 6, the eight extra-large red-wine glasses in this set are part of the moderately priced Ouverture series offered by world-renowned wineglass maker Riedel Crystal. Made of lead-free crystal and machine blown, these glasses are dishwasher-safe. Their thin rims are cut and polished to Riedel's exacting standards, so wine flows easily onto the palate. Each glass stands 7-7/8 inches high, and their large bowls help release the wine's aroma for full enjoyment. Though glasses shaped and sized for different types of wine seem a tradition today, Riedel was the pioneer of this revolutionary concept, which has created a lasting effect on the globe's wine culture.

Customer Reviews

"Perfect red wine glasses"

By Deborah Weiser (outer space)
I got this set of 8 at a great price, but I wasn't paying attention when I ordered and they were a larger size than I was expecting. However, these are now our favorites for dinner at home! Great rim clearance for the nose, easy to swirl, extremely lightweight for the size and I haven't broken one yet in the dish water.

 

"Perfect glasses for everyday use"

By C. Humble (Portland, OR)
These are great wine glasses for everyday use. I was looking for a glass with a larger bowl, but that wasn't too big. I also didn't want a super tall glass because they can be awkward and are easier to tip over.
I love the short stem on these glasses because they are comfortable to hold. They just fit my hand and feel perfect. The bowls are big enough, but not too big. I also find that they work fine for both red and white wines. The quality is excellent and the value is superb.
I would highly recommend a set of these glasses.

 

"To be expected..."

By Ben Zucco
The quality of the Riedel products never disappoint. This glass is a bit shorter then one might expect but the quality is flawless as one would expect. I purchased these as a gift for my father and we were so happy with them that his Girl Friend went out and bought a second set for her home as well. Riedel does not disappoint, I only wish I could have a set of my own!

all time released vitamins and medicines give me large red rashes and itching?

I am UNABLE to take ANY time released vitamins or medicines due to large red patches of rash and then constantly itching, but the very same vitamins and medicines that are not time released coated I am able to take.

so you are allergic to whatever makes them time release.
