Review of The Wine Enthusiast Fusion Stemware Pinot Noir Glasses Set of 4

These glasses are nicely weighted and are durable without being too thick.While I love the super-thin Riedels, our household is not a good place for them (we're too rough I guess).I've tried some sturdier glasses but did not like the weighting/thickness.I think these glasses are just right - durable, but not too thick.

Be aware - Break resistant does not mean break proof! (though at least I am not worried about them breaking while I am washing them.).So far, they appear to be doing fine in the dishwasher though I normally wash them by hand.They really sparkle and seem to resist spotting.

I've also tried the cabernet version of these.They are good as well.By looking at pictures on the internet, I would have thought I would have liked the cabernet glasses better.However, now that I have them both in house, I'll be buying more of these pinot noir glasses.

I think these are wonderful mid-priced glasses.I'll be buying more.

Update 3/19/2009 - OK, we've broken 5 of these in 2 years so as I have previously mentioned, they are not break proof, just break resistant.If I would stick to cleaning them in the dishwasher, I would break fewer (none?).I get too rough washing them by hand, sometimes banging them into the faucet.At $12.50 per wine glass, I can afford to buy more.They aren't quite as nice as the Riedels (at about $40 a pop), but these are my goto glasses for any occasion.My wife and I just love 'em.
