I purchased three sets of these to take to the South West of WA for a family Christmas at a holiday rental house. I had them delivered to my daughter's address in Perth to save us carting them from Melbourne which was great. They are lovely glasses and we used them to drink white wine as well as red wine over the Christmas break (when taking presents, tree, decorations etc you don't have room for a variety of glass types) . We all enjoy drinking good quality wine so wanted to ensure we had good quality glasses also. These glasses were a perfect choice and looked great as part of our festive table setting also! As they are boxed, two glasses to a set it was also easy to pack them in the car for the 3 hour journey. I use Kitchenware Direct for all of our kitchen needs as their prices, quality products plus prompt, safe delivery always impress!

Great Glasses for Blended Reds
These glasses are great, particularly for people who drink blended reds like myself. I can say, having now tried them, that they do enhance the flavour of the wine (much better than drinking out of the other cheap glasses I used to use). I will be buying more!. I must also say that the service and delivery of my order from Kitchenware Direct was speedy and well packed to avoid breakage. Thank you.
