Editorial Review:
The Wine Line, Riedel stems to use anytime, all the time. Why settle for boring everyday stemware, when you can experience the sensuous pleasure of Riedel so reasonably priced. A perfect accord of the beautiful and practical, the abundant crystal bowls echo the flavor-enhancing properties of Riedel Vinum, the deco stems make a sophisticated style statement and the four-column cloverleaf design contours to your hand, the better to have and to hold. Dishwasher safe. Machine blown from lead free crystal. Size: 8-1/4"H, 13 oz. Riedel Model # 448/5
Crafted from premium lead-free glass, Riedel's Wine Series is an attractive and functional line of wine glasses, featuring the most popular bowl shapes of the more expensive Vinum collection. The glasses are machine-made in Europe by renowned glassmakers and feature a faceted stem with tiered decorations at the top and base. The thin rims are cut and polished so that wine flows well onto the tongue, and the bowl shapes emphasize bouquet. This set of four glasses is designed to bring out the best characteristics of Viognier and Chardonnay as well as other full-bodied whites with good extract and moderate acidity. A highly versatile piece, the stem is also suitable for Albarino, White Bordeaux, White Burgundy, Chenin Blanc, Condrieu, Hermitage Blanc, Marsanne, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Sauternes, and Sauvignon Blanc. Each glass stands 8-1/4 inches high and holds 13 ounces at full capacity. --Emily Bedard

Everyday wine glasses:
We bought these glasses for everyday use and they are a nice "step up". We are pleased to have them on the table. I have handblown ones which I save for entertaining.
Enhancing your wine with a glass.:
Well this glass will do it.
The wine does taste sweeter or as they say fruitier. Great buy ,great to hold and play with the wine. Only problem is they are so thin and pretty they break
So plan on restocking every once in a while.(that is the one star down) :-)
