- 37-1/8-ounce decanter easily holds 1 750-milliliter bottle of wine
- Clarifies older red wines, displays young wines' color
- Machine-blown of brilliant 24-percent lead crystal
- Good-sized--9 inches high
- Made in Bavaria by world's premier wine glass maker
|
Product Description
Decanting old wines just a few moments before they are served helps to ensure that the wines' clarity and brilliance are not obscured by deposits and sediment. Decanting young wine several hours before they are served allows the wine to bloom and attain a stage of development that normally requires years of aging.
Product Description
Made in Austria by the world's most-renowned wineglass maker (Riedel Crystal, founded in 1756), this decanter allows sediment to settle, clarifying any older red wine. Even with a young, sediment-free wine, the decanter makes a beautiful serving vessel by displaying the wine's color. It's machine blown of brilliant 24 percent lead crystal and conforms to Riedel's exacting standards: colorless, transparent, and thin-walled. It holds 37-1/8 ounces, ample for a 750-milliliter bottle of wine, and measures 9 inches high. Its graceful, outwardly curved neck provides a secure grip when pouring. Riedel crystal is used by fine restaurants all over the world and thus must stand up to frequent trips through a dishwasher. But because lead crystal has a soft, coarse surface to convey intense aromas, Riedel recommends the decanter be hand washed. --Fred Brack

Product Description
Made of lead-free glass, this classic decanter holds one 750-milliliter bottle of wine. While the most common use of a decanter is to prevent sediment in an aged red wine from spoiling the wine's clarity and brilliance, some authorities also recommend decanting young red wines to give them the opportunity to bloom. In either case, this decanter brings elegance to the dinner table. And because it has an indented well in the bottom, steady, careful pouring is possible, as fingers fit securely into the well while the thumb grips atop the decanter's flared base. Standing 9 inches high on a 9-inch-diameter base, the decanter serves beautifully as a vase when it's not being used for wine. --Fred Brack

Wine aficionados will do whatever is necessary to achieve greatness from their prized collections. You have the right corkscrew, the right glasses, some good vintages--now add the decanting step to your evening ritual. While it won't turn vinegar sweet, this decanter really does help deepen the flavors of even your blandest red. By providing a broad surface area for the wine, the decanter allows controlled exposure to air, affecting all the little flavor nuances that make wine so enjoyable. The sloped spout makes pouring a breeze, and the construction material--looks like glass, sounds like glass, but is as lightweight as plastic--makes it easy to handle. Because of the unusual shape, it is best to hand wash using a long-handled brush to get the decanter really clean. --Jill Lightner

- Machine-blown of 24 percent lead crystal
- Made in Europe by world-renowned wine-glass maker
|
Product Description
Made in Europe by the world's most renowned wine-glass maker (Riedel Crystal, founded in 1756), the two large glasses in this set are ideal for Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and full-bodied red Bordeaux wines like Cabernet Franc. Both the glasses and the decanter are from Riedel's Vinum Extreme series, distinguished by the diamond shape of glasses' bowls--a shape reflected by the decanter. The glasses' shape intensifies a wine's bouquet and enhances its silky texture. Glasses and decanter are machine-blown of 24 percent lead crystal, and the glasses conform to Riedel's exacting standards: colorless, transparent, and thin-walled, with lips cut and polished so wine flows smoothly onto the tongue. The glasses are 9-3/4 inches high and hold 30-3/8 ounces. The decanter holds 37-1/8 ounces, ample for a 750-milliliter bottle of wine, and is 9 inches high. Though glasses shaped and sized for different types of wine seem commonplace today, when Riedel introduced this idea in 1961 it was revolutionary. Since then Riedel has continued fine-tuning glasses to bring out the best characteristics in wines and spirits. Varying bowls' shapes and sizes affects the position of the head when sipping and where wine first contacts the tongue's various taste zones. Riedel crystal is used by fine restaurants all over the world and thus must stand up to frequent trips through a dishwasher. But because lead crystal has a soft, coarse surface to convey intense aromas, Riedel recommends the glasses be hand washed. --Fred Brack

- Decanting removes sediments from older wines and aerates younger ones
- Convenient handle eases pouring and clean-up
- Holds 2 liters of wine, or approximately 2-1/2 standard-sized bottles
|
Product Description
Experts agree--most wines (even young ones) benefit from decanting before drinking, not just to remove sediment, but also to aerate the bottle's contents. In mingling with the large surface area of air inside a decanter, the wine softens and gains complexity, not to mention an attractive table presentation. The wide-body design of this attractive decanter maximizes the aerating effect, while the handle and angled mouth make it much easier to pour the contents and clean up afterwards. A distinctive angled rim and sharply flared bottom half lend a dramatic effect that brings contemporary elegance to any table décor. The decanter holds two liters, or approximately two and one-half standard-size bottles of wine. --Mary Park

The decanter has an eye-catching design with a rounded base and sloping sides that culminate into a 3-1/2-inch-long neck with a ridged spiral of glass winding around it.

The decanter stands 8 inches tall, is 6-1/4 inches wide at its base, and holds 49-3/8 ounces or the equivalent of one full bottle of wine. --Cristina Vaamonde
