This new Riedel Syrah decanter gets a thumbs up for beauty, value and functionality.

This Lead Crystal handmade mouthblown decanter features a classic rounded base with sensual lines that graduate up the neck, while the pour spout has a special design that advocates a drip-free flow of your favorite vino. Decanting exposes the wine to more oxygen, thus allowing the bouquet to open up and mature, while the wines complexities are further enhanced. The process of decanting also allows any sediment to fall to the base of the decanter.

Crafted by lead crystal and handmade by Riedel's mastermakers, Riedel's "O" Wine Magnum Decanter is designed for easy one-handed pouring using a deep punt, that accommodates the entire thumb, while the other four fingers naturally cradle the decanter. The decanter's wide elliptical mouth makes filling easy and promotes a smooth drip-free pour. Its unique design is good for daily use or special events.

Hand wash recommended.
Machine made; hand-finished.
Beautiful elegant design.

Decanting old wines, just a few moments before they are served, helps to ensure that the wines' clarity and brilliance are not obscured by any deposit that may have developed over time.

Decanting young wines several hours before they are served gives the wine a chance to bloom and attain a stage of development that normally requires years of aging." (thoughts on decanting by Christian Moueix)
