The machine-made Vino Grande Series is exceptionally beautiful and durable and is designed to enhance a wines flavor and bouquet.

Summary: Spiegelau Vino Grande Burgundy Wine Glasses
Comment: These glasses seriously make good wine taste better. They do break more easily than others but they are worth it!!!
Customer Rating: 
Summary: From a wine newbie
Comment: I'll preface my review with the fact that prior to this purchase, we were using cheap basic glasses from Walmart. The idea in buying these was to "class up the joint."
I can't tell whether these glasses do anything to improve my wine drinking experience, but I know I like using them. They are asthetically pleasing, and really, that's mostly why we got them. They do seem delicate, but so far, no breakage.

Summary: These are really nice glasses!
Comment: These glasses could easily work in a high end restaurant. They will definitely look great in your home, too.
The large size presents bold red wines very well, and the height makes for an easy swirl. The wine bouquet is concentrated when you drink, intensifying the flavors of the wine significantly. Subtle flavors are often missed when you drink from a smaller glass - not here! I am far from a wine expert, but I do know that these glasses significantly improve the wine drinking experience.
Little details like these excellent glasses that will really set off your table-scape, making for an even better experience at your next dinner party or romantic meal with your loved one. Of course, it doesn't hurt to know that you can use these glasses any other time you want to get the most enjoyment out of a bottle of red wine.
Customer Rating:
Summary: good for everyday use
Comment: great product for avid wine drinkers everyday use. look good and are not too delicate to take a little abuse. seem to stain more than some, but can be corrected. have been useing these daily for three years.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Even my husband is satisfied
Comment: My husband is a stickler for red wine glasses . . . they have to be big, they have to let the wine breathe, feel good in the hand, etc. So when I bought these glasses sight unseen, I was taking a risk that he wouldn't like them. But he does! (And I think they're a good value for high-quality glasses.) Highly recommended.
