Summary: Perfect Size
Comment: Riedel Ouverture Red Wine Glasses, Set of 4
For me these are the perfect size of glass. Although they are made for Red Wine I use them for White as well. They are very good quality and pretty sturdy. I have had the more expensive Riedel glasses and they are wonderful but very fine and tend to break more easily. By the way it is pronounce Ree-dull, not Rydel like the high-school in Grease. Enjoy!

Summary: Good value
Comment: These aren't the most elegant wine glasses in the world but they are attractive enough to put on all but the fanciest tables. The pricing is fair and not a level that you would avoid using them because of concerns about breaking one. The bottom line is that they represent a good value and they also do justice to your wine.

Summary: Poor Packaging!!!!!!!
Comment: While the items arrived in a timely manner, there was absolutely no packaging in the box to protect the wine glasses. Unfortunately, there were broken glasses. I returned them indicating what had happened in transit and they sent out a new set- with no packaging. Once again we had broken glasses.
Did someone actually think four sets of wine glasses would survive a cross-country trip on a truck with no wrapping or packaging?
Customer Rating:
Summary: Too many imperfections
Comment: Maybe it was this particular batch combined with poor quality control/inspection, but there were lots of flaws on each glass in one of two sets I bought. I have other Riedel wine glasses that are terrific. These were very poor quality; seemed like a cheap imitation or cheaper version of Riedel's glasses.

Summary: love the glasses
Comment: these glasses are wonderful to drink from...
the only drawback may be that i can't put them in the dishwasher as they are too tall for the top shelf...at the moment this is not bothering me a bit

Introduced in 1989, Riedel's Ouverture collection is an uncomplicated beginner series for customers who appreciate good, reasonably priced wine. You needn't have an encyclopedic knowledge of varietals or wine-growing regions to appreciate this fine stemware.
