Product Description

These elegant Riedel Vinum Grappa glasses are ideal for sipping a fine liqueur or grappa. Crafted in Europe by world renowned wine glass makers, the glasses are machine-blown of brilliant 24% lead crystal. With its elongated bowl and slightly turned out lip, the design of this wonderful stem enhances the inherent fruity flavors, and downplays the high alcohol which is found in these liqueurs. Introduced in 1986, the Vinum collection is based on the characteristics of grape varietals, meaning the content commands the shape. Each glass stands 8 inches high.

Renowned Austrian glassmaker Riedel designs the shape of each glass to most fully enhance the appreciation of the liquid within. These two glasses, with their elongated bowls and flared lips, are made especially for enjoying grappa, the sweet after-dinner drink the Italians call a "digestivo," which is much like brandy. Thin-stemmed and broad-based, providing just the right mixture of delicacy and stability, each grappa glass stands 8 inches tall and holds 3 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 1996. 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
