Review on ๐Ÿท Riedel Extreme Cabernet Wine Glasses - Pack of 4 (1 Count), Clear by Jaleel Pruitt

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good shape, bad quality.

Riedel describe themselves as a REAL wine glass maker and they have done a good job with this glass shape. Like the tulip, it really helps with rosรฉ champagne. The finish and quality leaves a lot to be desired and this is disappointing as every time I drink one of these glasses I lose what I can get from the enjoyment of their shape to the constant reminder of that ubiquitous cheap backbone . . in the stem, typical of poorly finished glasses where the manufacturer has cut corners and even avoided quality control. The worst thing is that not all the glasses in this pack have this flaw, only a few feel that the stem is not completely round and not properly finished. Riedel should focus more on quality and less on preserving the heritage of the name.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Damaged
