Ravenscroft Crystal Vintage Port Glass, Set of 4 Review
You can trust my review, bad or good is your choice and i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.
This is an excellent port glass. I love this product line from Ravenscroft and have their Burgundy and Zin glasses from this line. They are clearly over priced; especially these small port glasses and I removed a star for the high price. However, I would purchase them again if (when) I break these.
This line of Ravenscroft are very light and fragile. They feel like you could just crush them in your hand. Be careful washing them (see my washing advice at the end). However, the glasses just seem to disappear when you are drinking your port. They enhance the wine and then just get out of the way so you can enjoy what you are drinking. I think that is the mark of a great glass.
They are well balanced and feel great in my hand. The rim is nice and thin which I really like. They hold just the right amount of port and I have tried them with some older ports (1997 Dows Vintage Port) as well as some more recent offerings that were sweeter and more of a desert port. All are nice from the glass.
I wish they were a bit less expensive however.
Washing:
My advice for washing all your nice wine glasses is to hand wash the next day. DO NOT wash glasses after you have been drinking. Think about it...you have poorer coordination and you are going to wash your nice wine glasses. Rinse them out and then leave them on the counter.
Secondly, get use to water spots. Unless I am having a fine meal with guests, I wash my glasses by hand with very hot water and then dry them with a hand towel. I generally do not use soap and when I do it is just a little bit on my finders and I use it on the rim only.
NEVER hold the foot of the stem and twist the glass. You will snap the stem off. Also, do not force your hand or a towel into the bowl to dry it. You are just going to break the bowl. Take the end of the towel and put it into the bowl and twirl the towel around. Do not force the towel in so it is tight. Just have it in there rather loose. You will get most of the water off the sides, but not all of it. When it dries, you will have some spots. If you are going to drink out of it next, do you really care? I would rather have a few spots on my intact wine glasses than have broken glasses. The spots disappear when you put your wine in the glass and swirl it.
