Know before you buy
The Vendôme decanter is designed to increase the surface area of the wine, allowing it to breathe and oxygenate more effectively. This process softens tannins and helps open up the bouquet of younger or full-bodied red wines.
This piece is crafted from full-lead crystal. This material is prized for its high refractive index, which gives the decanter its exceptional clarity and brilliant sparkle.
Due to the delicate nature of handcrafted crystal, we recommend hand-washing with warm water and a mild detergent. Avoid using a dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh chemicals can cause clouding or damage to the fine glass.
Yes, with a capacity of 42 ounces, this decanter easily accommodates a standard 750ml bottle of wine with plenty of room left for the wine to aerate properly.
The decanter weighs 3.95 pounds, which provides a substantial, high-quality feel in the hand. Its design is balanced to ensure a controlled and graceful pour.
