Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Riedel Vinum Cognac Hennessy Glasses, Set of 2
Customer Review: Didn't get what I ordered...but Amazon.com solved the problem promptly!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
What I got is beautiful - with one teeny little problem...I ordered the tulip Cognac glasses and got water glasses instead. Talk about a pain...now I have to ship back what I got and wait some more for what I ordered. Not cool, Amazon.com! (although I have to admit that this is the first time you have messed up an order for me) UPDATE: Amazon's customer service was very, very helpful and sent the correct item immediately. Love the glasses - they are beautiful as well as correctly made for enjoying cognac properly (the wider opening allows for a small evaporating surface, which helps to balance the aroma and taste while tempering the alcohol and emphasizing the bouquet).
Description of Riedel Vinum Cognac Hennessy Glasses, Set of 2
Fine elegance meets pure function with this Riedel Vinum Cognac Hennessy glass. This special stem features a fluted shape, offering a small evaporating surface, which helps to balance the aroma and taste while tempering the alcohol and emphasizing the bouquet. These glasses are made from 24% lead crystal by world-renowed European glassmakers. Each measures 7-1/4 inches high and has a 6-3/4 ounce full capacity.Renowned Austrian glassmaker Riedel designs the shape of each glass to most fully enhance the appreciation of the liquid within. While many connoisseurs still prefer a large balloon glass for brandy and cognac, Riedel has determined the shape of its cognac glass to be most harmonious. Each glass features a gently rounded yet tall bowl, providing less surface area for evaporation and thus a more delicate aroma. The flared lip helps directs the distilled wine to the proper zone of the palate. Beautifully balanced and with just the right mixture of delicacy and stability, each cognac glass stands 7-1/4 inches tall and holds 6-3/4 ounces at full capacity. The set makes a superb wedding gift or adds to an existing collection for the serious wine and spirits drinker.
Comprised of more than 24 percent lead crystal for superb brilliance and clarity, Vinum stems and cocktail glasses are nevertheless affordable because they are machine-made rather than mouth-blown. Riedel introduced the popular Vinum line in 1986 and this particular glass in 1998. While all Vinum glassware is dishwasher-safe, Riedel recommends washing the crystal by hand to prevent detergent residue that can affect wine taste. --Ann Bieri
