A crystal glass decanter is best for aerating fine wine before serving, which can help bring forward aroma and flavor. The open-mouth design and wide base are made to encourage contact with air as the wine rests. It is also a beautiful way to pour at the table when you are entertaining.
The open mouth and wide base are designed to give the wine more surface area, which supports aeration. That extra exposure to air can help the wine develop in the decanter as you get ready to pour. It is a practical shape for quick decanting before dinner.
This decanter is made from proprietary crystal glass, a material chosen for durability and a bright, clear presentation. It is designed to maintain brilliant color and clarity through countless washes. That means the decanter can keep its polished look over time.
Care details are not listed here, so follow the instructions on the packaging or any included care information. For everyday cleanup, rinse promptly, wash with mild soap and a soft sponge or cloth and dry thoroughly to help keep the glass looking clear. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that can dull the finish.
