Riedel Vinum Sauvignon Blanc Wine Glasses, Set of 6

Machine-produced to be affordable, the Austrian-made Vinum glasses nonetheless consist of 24-percent lead crystal for distinctive clarity and brilliance. Each long-stemmed glass stands 8-1/2 inches tall and holds a generous 12-3/8 ounces at full capacity. Riedel introduced the popular Vinum line in 1986 and this particular Sauvignon Blanc glass design in 1998. While dishwasher-safe, Vinum crystal should be washed by hand to prevent detergent residue that can affect wine taste. --Ann Bieri

Even if you buy inexpensive wines, you will get much more enjoyment out of them with this glassware compared to other options. If you are buying mid-range wines, the difference will blow you away. Think of the Riedel glass as allowing you to see what the wine in your bottle *really* was meant to taste like.

Sauvignon Blanc is a great white wine with seafood and fish dishes. If you're grilling these up for summer picnics, give this wine and glassware a try!

Chilled Sauvignon Blanc is my favorite California white wine to serve with most fish and seafood entrées. It also is a good wine to drink with cheese, fruit, and bread. Riedel is the premier name in Austrian leaded crystal stemware, and the "Vinum" series is their affordable line. The artisans of Riedel have designed stemware to accomodate grape-to-glass, as is perfectly shown in these beautiful Sauvignon Blanc glasses.
