Know before you buy
No, this decanter is not dishwasher safe. Due to the delicate nature of hand-blown crystal, we recommend hand-washing it with warm water and a mild detergent to maintain its clarity and prevent breakage.
No, this model does not include a stopper. It is designed primarily for immediate aeration and serving rather than long-term storage of wine.
The decanter has a 750ml capacity, which is perfectly sized to hold a standard bottle of wine. The wide base is specifically engineered to provide maximum surface area for optimal oxygenation.
Yes, this decanter is crafted from 100% lead-free crystal glass. This ensures the vessel is safe for serving and offers superior clarity without the use of heavy metals.
The decanter's design naturally aerates wine as it is poured into the wide-mouth opening and settles into the base. This process helps open up the wine's bouquet and soften tannins, making it ready to drink much faster than if left in the bottle.
Absolutely. The wide base and elegant neck design allow you to decant aged wines slowly, effectively separating the wine from any sediment that may have formed in the bottle over time.
