Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Yes, wine glasses make a difference
I bought a set of the white and red Spiegelau Wine glasses on the recommendation of an article. They are said to be no different in quality from the Riedel but are typically less expensive. The absence of a rim focuses the wine on the more sensitive front part of your tongue, and the shape of the glass focusing the bouquet of the wine, both serve to really enhance your perception of the wine. Even Robert Mondavi, widely considered one of the greatest winemakers of all time, was surprised the first time he tasted a Mondavi wine from a glass like this, exclaiming "I never dreamed my wines were this good!"

I don't know about putting these in the dishwasher-I wouldn't risk it, but the manufacturer says it's fine.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Beautiful glasses at a great price.....
Being a wine connoisseur for years, until now I've used Riedel glasses. Though Riedel makes a great glass, they are also very fragile. Recently I decided to save money and try Spiegelau. I have to say that Spiegelau looks just as good as Riedel, yet costs up to 50% less. Also, it is a slightly more durable glass (though I would not recommend putting them in the dishwasher). In fact, my friends who are used to me serving wines in Riedels have yet to notice a difference.

When it comes down to it, unless you just have to have Riedels just so you can say "why yes, this is a Riedel glass" to your friends (in which you are simply feeding your ego), fine. Also, if money is of no object I'd recommend going with Riedel as well. Other than that, I can't see a reason why anyone would pay the extra money for essentially the same glass. As for the Spiegelau glass itself, it is perfectly sized and beautifully tapered at the top, thus allowing you to swirl your glass without fear of spilling, yet still able to enjoy the aromas as well. It really does enhance the wine compared to the average glass.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Beautiful price
These glsses are wonderful. Wonderful price, wonderful look make wonderful wine better. I would likethem to be sturdier, my bird tapped the top stem with her beek and one of the glasses broke. No, she was not having her own glass of Reisling. Since they are fragile, so I would recommend wshing by hand rather than in the dishwasher, even though they claim the glasses are dishwasher safe. I will be buying another set, 6 are not enough.
