Riedel Sommeliers Vintage Port #7635

- Capacity: a maximum capacity of 9 oz., for an average serving size of just under 3 oz.

Why choose this glass over similar glasses?
- One of the shortest glasses in the Sommeliers line, it strikes a charming profile appropriate to a dessert glass.

Perfect size/shape
Very nice port glasses. Often port glasses are too stubby for my liking, but these have great proportions. Only knock would be that, as often is the case with mouthblown glasses, one of the glasses I received was substantially thicker & heavier at the stem than the others.

Simply the Best!
Now that port season is here it is so nice to enjoy a glass (or more) out of these Reidel Sommeliers. I was lucky to have had one that lasted about 12 years so when I accidently cracked it I decided to purchase two! The same Reidel quality is evident and I hope to enjoy them for many years.

Worth it!
These glasses are the perfect style and size for enjoying a glass of port. Very impressed and well worth the money.

Not worth the price
I was expecting a thin, elegant glass, and while the lip is excellent, the glass overall is clunky for a hand-blown piece. I like how large it is for a port glass, which makes it easy to clean, but it lacks the wow factor I wanted and have come to expect from Riedel Sommeliers.

Wow.
This glass is so beautiful. Such great quality, these hand crafted glasses are pieces of art. They are priced a little on the high side but well worth it. Highly recommended.
