Customer Rating:      Summary: Big Glass for a Big Red Comment: This is a very nice wine glass and the biggest red wine glass I have owned. It is significantly larger (28oz vs 22oz, about an inch taller and has a wider bowl) than the Riedel Vinum Red Wine Glasses I own. Personally, it is not as comfortable to hold due to the very large size. Also, be very careful hand washing all Riedel Red Wine Glasses as not to twist off the stem. I've done it twice when I thought I was being careful. My recommendation - skip the 'Vinum Extreme' line, stick with the 'Vinum' line.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Vinum Extreme Cab glasses Comment: If you drink good wine, you need a good wineglass. The Riedel Vinum Extreme is an elegant wineglass, with a thin lip to focus your attention on the wine, a large bowl for swirling and to collect the wines vapors, and a simple design. Riedel is the gold standard in stemware.
If you are drinking wine to get your girlfriend drunk, stemware from Bed, Bath, and Beyond will suffice. For the epicure, the Riedel Vinum series is well worth the investment.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent merlot/cabernet glasses! Comment: I bought these for my father-in-law who drinks the same type of merlot every night. He called to tell me the glasses are wonderful, because he said they made his wine taste better! I told him about Riedel and that he invented tailoring glasses to the type of wine. I was amazed he could actually taste a difference!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great wine glasses Comment: Bought these a few weeks ago and have found them to live up to expectations.

Affordable elegance taken up a notch! The Riedel Vinum Extreme Wine Glass series pushes the boundaries of glassware. Riedel combines a dazzling oversized bowl with a unique angular look and an extra-tall stem to create a wine glass that is as beautiful to look at as it is to drink from. Vinum Extreme is machine made of fine lead crystal and is designed in the incomparable Riedel style to emphasize and enhance the flavors of every wine you drink. Recommend to hand wash. The Cabernet / Merlot / Bordeaux wine glass is ideal for full-bodied, complex red wines that are higher in alcohol and tannins. The generous size allows the wine to aerate in the glass and the bouquet to develop fully. The shape of the rim directs the flow of the wine to the front palate to enhance sweetness, thus accentuating the fruit while softening bitter tannins. Recommended for: Bordeaux (red), Brunello di Montalcino, Sangiovese, Cabernet Franc. Size: 9-3/4"H x 2-6/8" Dia., 28-1/4 oz. Riedel Model # 444/0
