Amazon.com Review
Handmade of mouth-blown full lead crystal, this wine glass is from Riedel's top-of-the-line Sommeliers collection and is for those who take their wine seriously. Describing this glass as "huge" is an understatement: At 13 inches tall, the glass, when placed on the floor, stands just a few inches below the knee of a person of average height. The bowl is about the size of a grapefruit and has a capacity of 51 fluid ounces (about two full bottles of wine). Rather than simply be a conversation piece for collectors, this glass is meant to be used and, despite its gigantic size, the glass's light weight and exquisite balance make drinking from it manageable. p The Zinfandel/Riesling Grand Cru is specifically shaped to balance the high acidity and sugars in wines such as Riesling (late harvest), Zinfandel, Beaujolais Nouveau, Gewurztraminer, Vouvray, Chianti, and Bardolino.
