Designed by Maximilian Riedel this set of two 21.125-ounce Riedel O Cabernet Glasses has something missing - there is no stem or base. These stunning glasses are generously sized to allow the bouquet to fully develop and the shape directs the flow of wine onto the region of the tongue that perceives sweetness which accentuates the wine's fruity flavor. O is the innovative take on the wine tumbler which for centuries has been used as an all-round drinking vessel. O is the ideal glass for everyday use and for every occasion. A glass that is easy to use it fits in every dishwasher picnic basket minibar and small kitchen. Broken stems are a thing of the past. These glasses are made of nonleaded glass and each stands 4.875 inches tall. Dishwasher-safe.

The Story of RiedelFew glass makers can claim a history dating to the 17th century. But that's when Johann Christoph Riedel began in Bohemia what would become a renowned story of glass enterprise. Modern-day Riedel continues a generations-long history of fine glassmaking with Claus Riedel innovating the technique of designing a wineglass shape according to the character of the wine. This revolutionary technique has changed the face of wineglass making the world over. Riedel embraces a holistic pleasure of life including all five senses. They are committed to creating a pleasurable zest for life out of every glass object they make. Riedel is unmatched in the world of glass.
