Review of The Mark Phillips Wine Glass - Box of 2

These glasses are wonderful!They are just as advertised on the designer's website.I have knocked these glasses over on my granite countertops and they did not break, yet they are paper thin and oh so lightweight.They feel very elegant and my wine seems to taste better in these elegant glasses.I love them and will give them as gifts too.

Product Description:
The Mark Phillips Wine Glass is the one glass that can outperform all other glasses.The Myth About Needing Different Shaped GlassesTo appreciate the Mark Phillips Wine Glass, one has to recognize the myth that pervades the wine world. And that is that one is supposed to use a different shaped wine glass for different types of wine. Riedel and other companies have brainwashed consumers to believe that is true to perpetuate selling more glasses.There is no question that wine smells and tastes different from different shaped glasses. If you have ever attended a wine glass seminar, like Riedel puts on frequently, most people walk out of the seminar convinced that the wine glass makes a difference depending on the wine that is poured. The scientists explain this as a combination of great salesmanship and power of suggestion. But all the research that has been done shows that designing a glass for a particular type of wine is baloney.Daniel Zwerdling, an NPR reporter, wrote an article about Riedel that was published in Gourmet in August 2004. The article cites the four independent studies that have been done by the top tasting labs in the world. All the studies concluded that the shape of the glass didn't make a difference in accentuating a certain type of wine or grape variety. The Mark Phillips Glass was designed to make both white and red wines taste better....better than a glass specifically designed for that type of wine. All you need is just one glass!Watch a video and learn more about the glass at www winetasting orgThe Mark Phillips Wine Glass is the ultimate glass. As respected wine writer, Jennifer Rosen, put it, It s also far less expensive than other crystal in its league. And for the time being, it s the only glass that leaves me breathless."
