The Austrian Crystal Stemware makers knowns as Riedel are well known for being the premiere wine tasting glasses. Skilled Sommeliers are said to taste different parts of the wine when drinking from these glasses. I don't know about all that jazz, but I definitely think these "Black Tie Collection" glasses look suave at least.
The "Sommelier's Black Tie" series are are amongst Riedels highest quality glasses and are actually hand crafted- the red wine glasses have a black stem and the white wine glasses have a black base. My Riedel Pinot glasses and Champagne Flutes are the guilty pleasure of my bar (along with my monogrammed Tiffany martini glasses... this is not a made up story... I'm crazy, I know this).
