Intended for everyday enjoyment and comfort with wine, the Ouverture line from Riedel Glassworks pairs accessible pricing with expert design. Machine-made for consistency, Ouverture pieces are crafted from lead-free glass with exceptional clarity. A collection of wine stems and spirits glasses, they are pleasant in the hand, attractive on the table, and safe in the dishwasher for maximum ease. This Magnum glass is the Ouverture answer to full-bodied red wines and features an elongated bowl, comfortable stem, and generous size. It stands 7-7/8 inches high and holds 18-5/8 ounces of your favorite cabernet sauvignon, merlot, or shiraz. Packaged here in a set of eight at the usual price for six, it makes a smart purchase as well as a lovely addition to the home barware collection.
Perfect for everyday use and an amazing value at 8 glasses for the price of 6, the eight extra-large red-wine glasses in this set are part of the moderately priced Ouverture series offered by world-renowned wineglass maker Riedel Crystal. Made of lead-free crystal and machine blown, these glasses are dishwasher-safe. Their thin rims are cut and polished to Riedel's exacting standards, so wine flows easily onto the palate. Each glass stands 7-7/8 inches high, and their large bowls help release the wine's aroma for full enjoyment. Though glasses shaped and sized for different types of wine seem a tradition today, Riedel was the pioneer of this revolutionary concept, which has created a lasting effect on the globe's wine culture.
