Product Description: Founded in 1521, Spiegelau is one of the oldest and most famous European manufacturers of fine crystal. Recently introduced to the U.S. by IWA, Spiegelau has become synonymous with quality stemware, especially among the world's leading sommeliers and wine connoisseurs. These glasses are designed to enhance a wine's flavor and bouquet, and are exceptionally beautiful yet durable. Brandy / Cognac Glass. 6"H, 19 ¾ oz.
Amazon.com Review: Several years ago, an article in Wine Spectator magazine noted the importance of a high-quality glass for improving a wine's looks and enhancing its bouquet. However, the magazine lamented, many of the attributes that increase the beauty and value of the glass actually obscure the wine. Spiegelau's Vino Grande series is part of a connoisseur line designed specifically for wine lovers. The thin rim means less distraction from the taste and texture of the wine. Tap the glass gently with your fingernail and you'll hear the distinctive ping of fine crystal.
This clear, long-stemmed cognac glass measures 7 inches high and is designed to be cradled so your hand warms the cognac, releasing its bouquet. The glasses are billed as dishwasher-safe and are sturdy enough for everyday use, as proven by their use in restaurants. Still, we'd recommend hand washing. --Irene Svete
