I am wine collector w a sommeliers diploma - so I've done a lot of tastings over the past 20 years. Obviously the top league is held by Riedel - the old guy did his research on glass shapes (although debatable whether optimal for every varietal).
I find the Spiegelau's better value for money in the long run.
Pro's:
1. Thicker and more durable than Riedels. I used to wash Riedels in a dishwasher - some breakages resulted. The Spiegelaus are tougher.
2. Specific to the champagne flutes - I find the overall balance of the glasses very good. They are stylish, yet still functional in that the closing tulip preserves the flavors.
Cons:
1. Not Riedel?
Great value - good for every day use, but will still serve as excellent tasting glasses.
