Product Description
Created in honor of the 50th anniversary of Riedel�s workshop in Tyrol, Austria. A glass worthy of being put on its pedestal---a solid half-sphere base designed not only for stability, but to cast a vivid reflection of your chosen Cabernet. Bowl is shaped to bring out the full potential of taste. Ideal for casual dining. Machine made of 24% lead crystal. Dishwasher safe. Size: 6-1/8"H x 2-7/8" Dia., 24-1/8 oz. Riedel Model # 405/0

Amazon.com Review
Riedel continues to impress the wine world with its innovative designs. The Tyrol line, released in 2007, adopts an intermediary position between the completely stemless O wine tumblers that set a national trend and Riedel's long-stemmed, more fragile beauties. Each Tyrol glass features a short stem, more of a foot really, that is half of a solid sphere, lending great stability and reducing breakage worries. Crafted in Bavaria of sparkling leaded crystal yet dishwasher-safe, Tyrol is perfect for a casual, more contemporary approach to fine dining at home.

This set includes two Tyrol Cabernet glasses, the second largest in volume of the entire collection (only the Shiraz glass is larger). Each Cabernet glass holds a maximum capacity of 24-1/8 ounces and stands 6-1/8 inches tall. While designed to bring out the best attributes of full-bodied red wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the glasses also work excellently for beer and soft drinks. Out of a long 250-year history, the renowned Riedel glass company has been based in the Austrian state of Tyrol for 50 years now, hence the commemorative name of the new collection. --Ann Bieri

Excellent - Highly Recommended August 11, 2008
I was looking for some "everyday" dishwasher safe wine glasses and these are the best. They don't streak, fit easily into the dishwasher and allow big reds to breathe. I still pull out my fancy ones for special occasions but don't like having to hand wash them. These are great, stylish and I highly recommend them. Ordering more as I'd dropped two of them. I'm a clutz!

great, but late January 8, 2008

I would have given it a 5 star rating if it had arrived on the estimated date of new years eve. Instead it arrived 2 days later. It was one hour away from my house on the 29th.

Wanted to compare to Riedel "O" December 27, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I've been a fan of the Riedel "O" glass for a number of years and wanted to try this new addition to the "little or no stem" glass. These have more stability than the "O" but are a bit clunky. My jury is still out. First impression is that I'd stick with Riedel "O" glass. Benefit might be that these are less fragile.
