Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Riedel Vinum Montrachet/Chardonnay Glasses, Set of 2
Customer Review: Good item, does well for Chardonnay
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought these for my boyfriend, who has been very pleased with them. He is a HUGE fan of Riedel glasses, and has made me a fan as well. Riedel glasses really do affect the way a wine hits your palate, and these chardonnay glasses are no different. We compared them with Riedel's previously-shaped chardonnay glasses, and these definitely presented the wine much better. Unfortunately, just for the purposes of aesthetics only, I liked the shape of the other ones better. But these are easier to clean, so I suppose it balances out.
If you enjoy chardonnay, try these glasses. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at how they enhance the flavors of your wine. Also, if you enjoy trying different wines, I do weekly video reviews, professionally filmed, that are posted on my blog at [...]. You can also visit our Facebook Fan Page, OC Wine and Lifestyle, and "like" us. I generally post reviews on Fridays, and all of the archived reviews are still available for viewing. Come visit us and between now and then, "Happy Tasting"!
Description of Riedel Vinum Montrachet/Chardonnay Glasses, Set of 2
These elegant Riedel Vinum Montrachet/Chardonnay glasses are ideal for serving new world chardonnays; the generous size bowls bring out the wine's full bouquet of these bold, rich wines. Crafted in Europe by world renowned wine glass makers, the glasses are machine-blown of brilliant 24% lead crystal. Each stands 7.5-in. high. Introduced in 1986, the Vinum collection is based on the characteristics of grape varietals, meaning the content commands the shape.Renowned Austrian glassmaker Riedel designs the shape of each glass to most fully enhance the appreciation of the wine within. The Montrachet/Chardonnay glass is unusually oversized and rounded for a white wine glass in order to let the intense aromas of rich Montrachets and Chardonnays fully develop. Beautifully balanced and with just the right mixture of delicacy and stability, each thin-stemmed glass stands 7-3/8 inches tall and holds a generous 21-1/8 ounces. This set of two Montrachet glasses makes a superb wedding gift or adds to an existing collection for the serious wine 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 2000. 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
