What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the RIEDEL Fatto A Mano Black Tie glass for its exquisite craftsmanship and sophisticated design, particularly noting the elegant black stem. Reviewers frequently report that the varietal specific shape significantly enhances the aroma and taste of Champagne and Sauvignon Blanc, elevating the entire drinking experience. This handmade quality is central to its appeal, making it a cherished item or gift. A consistent point of feedback, however, centers on the inherent fragility of the fine crystal. While users appreciate the delicate feel, many mention the necessity of extreme care during handling and washing, as breakages can occur. Despite this fragility concern, the consensus is that the unparalleled sensory enhancement justifies the investment for discerning consumers.
Know before you buy
The egg-shaped bowl is designed to concentrate the complex aromatics of these wines while balancing their natural acidity and minerality. Additionally, the glass features a sparkling point at the base to promote a steady, elegant stream of bubbles in sparkling wines.
No, this glass is not dishwasher safe. Due to its delicate, handmade nature and the unique black crystal base, we recommend hand washing with care to maintain its finish and structural integrity.
Because each piece is individually crafted, the bowl is exceptionally thin and feather-light. This design choice is intended to provide a more tactile, refined drinking experience compared to standard machine-made glassware.
This glass has a generous capacity of 464 ccm, which is approximately 22.31 ounces. This size allows for proper aeration of Sauvignon Blanc while providing ample room for the effervescence of Champagne.
The black crystal base is purely an aesthetic design element that provides a striking visual contrast. It does not affect the clarity or color perception of the wine inside the clear crystal bowl.
