Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Specially designed to heighten the flavor of the distinguished Pinot Noir grape, the Vinum XL Pinot Noir glass is the result of two years of development by Riedel. The Austrian crystal maker crafts this beautifully enlarged, flared tulip bowl on a fine stem for extraordinary wine tasting performance and everyday elegance.

Amazon.com Review
A bold adaptation of Riedel's popular Vinum stemware line, XL incorporates the same varietal-specific shapes into larger sized silhouettes for a dramatic effect at the table or bar. Each piece is machine-made of premium 24-percent lead crystal to combine the brilliance and clarity of fine glass with a welcomed affordability that makes it perfect for everyday use. With gently curved bowls perched on slender, solid stems and thick bases, they also unite classic elegance with user-friendly durability. This set of two 28-1/4-ounce Pinot Noir glasses is designed to showcase the unique characteristics of Oregon's renowned Pinots with a lovely tulip shape that highlights the luscious fruit and minimizes acidity. Go ahead and explore the richness of this region! Because crystal is course and porous to intensify flavors, hand washing is recommended to protect it. Made in Germany. 9-1/2 inches tall. --Kara Karll

The best all purpose wine glass.... and stunning for Pinot August 4, 2008
I can't speak too highly of this wine glass. It works for any Pinot Noir just brilliantly, not only the Oregonian examples. The aromas flood out of the glass, really allowing the nuances and secondary/tertiary notes to flourish, while on the palate the flavors are concentrated adeptly really allowing a perfect expression of this gorgeous varietal. Best of all, it works well as an all-purpose glass. Previously I had recommended the Vinum Zin/Riesling glass with the caveat that it did not work for Pinot at all. Now that problem is solved. I have consumed every major varietal from this glass, and all work. Syrah expecially does well (not surprising since before the Syrah glass was developed the Pinot glass was recommended for all Rhone reds!), as does the aromatic whites (Viognier, Gewurz). Sure, Cabernet may not shine as it might from the correct glass, and I always recommend someone owning a good Cab glass, but this glass is clearly the best all-purpose glass for table red and whites that I have ever tried - by an absolute mile.
