Average Rating: 4.33 out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Thinner rims make for great sips
I have enjoyed many reds from both Spiegelau and Riedel glasses, and I find no appreciable difference between the two. Both glass designs enhance the aromas and flavors of fine red wines beyond what thicker-rimmed glasses have to offer the taster. And why drink the wine if you can't taste the full range of the flavors? That'd be like digging into a nice porterhouse with nose plugs on.

If image is important to you, buy the Riedel. If enjoying good wine--and knowing you saved about 30%--is your primary aim, buy the Spiegelau. They are for wine drinkers.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Enhancing a wine's flavor is dangerous...
...but that's just what a wine glass is intended to do, and the Spiegelau glasses fit this role just fine. Tipping the glass to your lips and inhaling the aroma while drinking brings out the best in the flavors of reds. Although my first impression was that the bowl of the glass looked almost misproportionately large, it certainly makes up for it functionality, much like the small information card included explains, as if I needed yet another reason to drink wines...

Good glasses at a good price. I would have to agree with the reviewer that said to get these if you're more interested in getting the most out of the flavors. Personally, I'm pretty happy with them, before AND after using them!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Get a set of white and a set of red and you're ready to dine
I bought these glasses along with the white ones because they were a great deal, but once they arrived, I was pleasantly surprised by their excellent quality and their beauty. These Spiegelau Authentis Red Wine Glasses have the heft of the Riedel glasses. They feel great in the hand and they make that nice ringing sound of crystal when you toast. The tapered shape does seem to help with the nose of the wine (follow the instructions and only pour wine to the widest part of the glass), and if nothing else, they make you look good at a dinner party. And the best part of all? They seem quite happy to run through the dishwasher, which is great, because washing wineglasses by hand always scares me. After spending three months using both the red and the white Spiegelau glasses, I ordered another set of each, and I'm giving my old Bormiolis away.
