Amazon.com Review
Inspired by the ripples created by a single raindrop on water, renowned Venetian glass designer Frederico DeMajo has crafted a new way for wine enthusiasts to enjoy their favorite vintages. A member of the innovative Esperienze collection, this set of four 22-5/8-ounce Chianti/Zinfandel Classico glasses focuses on the bolder red varieties with tall sides to direct the wine's flow and wavy bottom contours that encourage the wine to quickly oxygenate for the optimum bouquet and flavor. Poised on an elongated, round stem and generous base, the result is a graceful and refined silhouette appropriate for both daily and formal dining. Esperienze stemware is blown from pure lead-free crystal for traditional quality, flawless clarity, and reassuring weight. This handsome set goes safely into the dishwasher between uses. It is made in Italy and comes packaged in an attractive gift box. i--Kara Karll/i

Superb Glasses! December 11, 2008

I bought these in a 6 pack version. I have also the Pinot Noir fluted glasses in Esperenze style. A former reviewer mentioned the instant aromatic influence the ripples provide at the base of the glass. I completely agree. My husband and I have wine parties, and decanting all of the wines can be a hassle. This almost eliminates the reason to do so. Incredible value for the quality of stemware that you get. Thin, yet sturdy; I just adore these glasses.
Absolutely the best! February 27, 2008
Prepare for a shock when you first swirl a robust red in this glass. The grooves throw back the aroma and bouquet immediately. These are huge glasses, so a three- or four-ounce serving has plenty of room to expand. And they are dishwasher safe -- just place them at an angle. So far, no hazing. Goodbye, Reidel; hello Luigi.
 Quite pleased January 18, 2008
These glasses came in a small package but were a great hit. I am very pleased with this purchase. I will buy more since they make great gifts.
They work! May 9, 2007

Forget to open your reds to breathe? Can't get the hang of swirling your wine without spilling? Every sceptic who laughed at my insistence that these glasses with their ridges made the wine taste better did their own taste test. Then they had to admit I was right. Thin like Reidel... and, like Reidel, they need hand washing. Only drawback!!!

These classes are lovely. I have 4 different sets and use them routinely. I can't tell you how many compliments I've received on them.If you want relatively inexpensive but sophisticated wine glasses, these are for you.
