Riedel VINUM Martini Glasses, Set of 2 - Clear

The established Vinum glassware collection by Riedel features the classic machine-made martini glass, an essential piece for every home bar. Designed for the home bartender, these glasses have a rather elegant yet frugal size of 4-5/8 ounces, offering a more humble approach to martinis that is great for self-proclaimed lightweights.

Measuring approximately six inches in height, each of the two glasses in this set feels beautifully balanced, with a lanky stem that is not so thin that it is likely to snap during a lively cocktail party. Made in Bavaria of crystal for superb brilliance and clarity, Vinum wine glasses are nevertheless affordable because they are machine-made rather than mouth-blown.

The steeply rising sides of this glass best benefit the spirits of the classic martini, helping to open up and release its complex aromas. There's something very satisfying about the inverted cone shape of the classic martini glass, and Riedel makes the Vinum martini glass in a smaller size than many, holding up to 4-5/8 ounces of a favorite Manhattan or gin martini.

Since its introduction in 1986, the popular Vinum collection has grown to contain nearly two dozen different glasses. While all Vinum glassware is dishwasher-safe, Riedel recommends washing the crystal by hand to prevent detergent residue that can affect wine taste.

This set contains 2 glasses, with a capacity of 5.47 ounces and dimensions of 3.94L x 3.94W x 5.79H inches. As always, Riedel delivers top-notch quality in gorgeous fine crystal, with classic style. It's 5 o'clock somewhere, and these Riedel martini glasses are the perfect match for cocktail hour.
