Product Description

Set of four wine glasses that are modern, elegant, functional, and fun! Atelier stemware is machine blown in Parma Italy, made in Luigi Bormioli’s proprietary SON.hyx material. SON.hyx produced glassware is an exciting fusion of elegance and technology. Glassware made in SON.hyx is extremely brilliant in color, has a beautiful sound, maintains its clarity after thousands of industrial dishwashing cycles, and possesses an extremely high level of durability and strength.

Amazon.com Review

With a relaxed but hearty manner, Luigi Bormioli's Atelier stemware makes an engaging accompaniment to both traditional and contemporary entertaining. The collection offers pure lead-free crystal construction shaped into simple geometric bowls that curve out from smooth rims to a wide point below the middle before turning back in to rest on slender stems. Applied to the wine glasses, the look is both aesthetically appealing and purposefully designed to enhance the unique personality of each vintage and variety. This set of four 23-3/4-ounce Cabernet/Merlot glasses specializes in the robust, fuller bodied red wines with its tall sides and generous shaping that encourage the proper oxygenation. Like the rest of the Atelier series, the set combines the latest glass-finishing innovations with old-world Italian artistry to achieve superior, lasting quality. As a modern convenience, the glasses are sturdy enough to go into the dishwasher between uses. --Kara Karll

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, perfect for fine red wine, September 1, 2009
This review is from: Luigi Bormioli Atelier Cabernet/Merlot Wine Glasses, Set of 4 (Kitchen)
Fantastic wine glasses. If these had the name Reidel on them, they'd go for $25 each: they're made of beautiful crystal, are weighty without being awkward, and have a unique, classy shape. The bowl is large enough to really oxidize the wine, and they're tall enough to stand up to a formal dinner setting. The heavier feel to these glasses really complements a fine, meaty California Cabernet Sauv or South African Shiraz.

They are considerably heavier than a Reidel glass, however. If you like a lighter, delicate feeling in your hands, these are not your glasses. The glasses also have a distinctly linear shape near the bottom of the bowl, whereas Reidels have a more classic curvature.

Overall, these are great glasses to have in your cabinet, especially given the price. A slightly unconventional shape and a solid feeling make for a great drinking experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely and a terrific value, September 28, 2011

This review is from: Luigi Bormioli Atelier Cabernet/Merlot Wine Glasses, Set of 4 (Kitchen)
Given that most of us, despite the best care, will break a wine glass or too, the $25 per stem price of Riedel or other crystals didn't seem sensible to me. I purchased my first Luigi Bormioli approximately 4 years ago, and can't say enough about them. Wine opens beautifully and makes its way to the right part of your mouth for tasting, the glass is gorgeously clear and, my favorite part? The sound is astounding!!! The coup de grace has been when sommelier friends, or simpy wine lovers, have mistaken them for very expensive stems . . .

I bought these for my boyfriend, who loves large wine glasses. I wasn't sure how they would compare to more expensive wine glasses, but I don't see how these could get any better. They're deceptively deep, and allow your wine to breathe as it should. As if this wasn't awesome enough, when one of the glasses broke during shipment, Amazon sent us a replacement set immediately, without requiring that I return the box containing the broken glass. Everybody who has seen and drank from our glasses is impressed, and so are we! We highly recommend these!
