Product Description
Riedel VinumMontrachet (Chardonnay) Wine glasses provide the perfect harmonious environment for wine. Created by Georg Riedel on the principle that the content commands the shape," each glass is designed exclusively on the characteristics of grape varietals. Machine-made to keep it affordable, Vinum stemware is over 24% lead crystal. The Montrachet/Chardonnay style glass is wonderful for Blanc Fume, Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Muscat, Pinot Grigio, Soave, and Sauvignon Blanc. Dimensions: 7-3/8" high, 21-1/8 oz. capacity. Set of 4.

Made in Austria by the world's most-renowned wineglass maker (Riedel Crystal, founded in 1756), the four large glasses in this set are ideal for serving Montrachet, Pouilly-Fuisse, and fine Chardonnays. The extra-large bowls hold 21-1/8 ounces, opening a wine's full bouquet without over-concentrating the aromas. From Riedel's Vinum series, the glasses are machine blown of brilliant 24 percent lead crystal and conform to Riedel's exacting standards: colorless, transparent, and thin-walled, with lips cut and polished so wine flows smoothly onto the tongue. The glasses are 7-3/8 inches high. Though glasses shaped and sized for different types of wine seem commonplace today, when Riedel introduced this idea in 1961, it was revolutionary. Since then Riedel has continued fine-tuning glasses to bring out the best characteristics in wines and spirits. Varying bowls' shapes and sizes affects the position of the head when sipping and where wine first contacts the tongue's various taste zones. Riedel crystal is used by fine restaurants all over the world and thus must stand up to frequent trips through a dishwasher. But because lead crystal has a soft, coarse surface to convey intense aromas, Riedel recommends the glasses be hand washed. --Fred Brack

Remarkable improvement in taste of Oaky Chardonnays May 22, 2007

Perfect for New World Chardonnay April 27, 2004
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
This Montrachet glass IS TERRIBLE when you use it for the traditional chablis style chardonnay, as the stem ware makes wine taste dull and boring. However, these glasses are perfectly suited for those 'New World' chardonnay that are creamier and butterier than its traditional counter part. So you should have both the Chablis glass and the Montrachet glass and use them depending on the type of the chardonnay you are drinking!!! Great glass if you love New World chardonnay.
