Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Metrokane Rabbit Bordeaux/Cabernet/Merlot Wine Glasses, Set of 2
Customer Review: Great giant glasses
Summary: 4 Stars
While other reviewers complained and did not like the size of these wine glasses, I think this product is well worth the money. The size of these glasses is very large, but that is the point. Large glasses are perfect for special wines so you can smell the wine and let it breathe in a large bowl. These glasses are approximately the same size as their reidel equivalent, and I'm very happy with the quality and shine of the crystal for half the price of reidel's. Thus, I don't mind if these break, but the crystal seems to be strong and the manufacturer advertises that these glasses can be put in the dishwashing machine although I tend to rinse with hot water only. Metrokane glasses are well worth the money if you're looking for large bowls and an oversized big glass for your good juice.
Description of Metrokane Rabbit Bordeaux/Cabernet/Merlot Wine Glasses, Set of 2
Hand-blown crystal wine glasses with exclusive advantages that other wine glasses can't match. Glasses are blown in Turkey of lead-free Crystalline quartz. Etched with the Rabbit symbol of quality assurance, the Glass is colorless with exceptional clarity and brightness. ¿A tasting lip on every glass...This graceful outward curve to the rim of the glass is functional.It enhances the appreciation of wine and champagne by directing it to the front palate. Super-size red wine glasses (33 and 34 oz.)¿This is the extravagant size favored by wine connoisseurs, because their high surface evaporation rate fully releases a red wine's bouquet.Bowls of Bordeaux and Burgundy glasses are shaped to emphasize the merits of those wines.Medium- to full-bodied red wines need a wide surface area to fully release their bouquet, hence this monumental wine-specific glass from Metrokane. Ideally designed for Bordeaux, Cabernet, and Merlot, the 33-ounce glass provides the appropriate bowl girth and curvature that wine connoisseurs expect. Furthermore, the flared tasting lip directs the wine to the front palate, enhancing the total sensory experience. The set consists of 4 glasses.
Metrokane, maker of the renowned Rabbit corkscrew, etches the base of each glass with a tiny Rabbit icon as a symbol of quality. Hand-blown of remarkably clear lead-free crystal, the glasses are dishwasher-safe, yet the stunning size, 10-3/4 by 4 inches, may preclude them from fitting in most dishwashers. Metrokane also produces crystal specifically designed for medium- to full-bodied reds, sparkling wines, and dry white wines. --Ann Bieri
