Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Riedel O Cabernet/Merlot Wine Tumblers, Set of 2Customer Review: A stylish and distinctive glass Summary: 5 Stars
These lightweight, stemless glasses turn heads. When I use them for entertaining, everyone seems to want a set. They're dishwasher safe (top rack) and appear to be pretty well made. These make a great gift -- the packaging is pretty nice. I recommend ordering two boxes (four glasses). At these prices, that's still a deal.
Customer Review: Great Wine Glasses Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered 4 of these glasses after reading the reviews on Amazon. They are great! They are thin, which I really like. But, I have put them in the dishwasher several times with no problems. I agree that they don't work as well with white wines because they the wine warms too quickly without a stem to hold.
Customer Review: Perfect for drinking wine if you are stem-intolerant Summary: 4 Stars
They are made of a lovely glass and have a very nice weight and balance to them - a great deal.
Still not really sold on the stemless approach due to the supposed warming of the glass/wine by your hands (then again, us americans drink our whites too cold anyway).
In that case, they are perfect.
Customer Review: when you are too lazy to wash your good glasses by hand Summary: 4 Stars
As other reviewers have commented, you do touch the bowl of these glasses with your hands which does warm the wine. However, if your sink is cluttered with unwashed riedel sommeliers and vinums, like mine, embrace the truth and go for the "O". Do not underestimate the importance of "dishwasher-safe".
Customer Review: Good for casual use Summary: 4 Stars
These glasses are a good choice if the stemmed version would be clumsy (casual gatherings outdoors), but the lack of stem does cause the wine to warm in your hand. I use them when I'm out at the grill or moving about.
The glasses are made of NON-LEADED glass (see the description).
