Overview
Not a hand-blown showpiece, this Riedel Cabernet decanter is machine-made clear crystal with an angular, oblong shape. It is meant for one bottle of wine, and the outward-curving neck gives a secure grip when pouring.
Decanting lets sediment settle out of older reds and smooths younger wines, and the clear crystal shows the color on the table. The limits are the soft crystal surface, which the maker says to wash by hand, and a capacity of one bottle.
Who it's for
Dinner hosts and weeknight drinkers who open a single bottle and want it breathing in a clear, thin-walled vessel. Buyers who pour several bottles at a time or who want a fitted stopper should look at another style.
Pros and cons
- Clear crystal shows the wine's color
- Sized for a standard bottle
- Curved neck gives a secure pouring grip
- Suits young and old wines
- Hand washing advised for crystal
- No stopper listed
- Holds only one bottle
- Machine-made, not hand blown
Performance notes
Pouring a bottle into the wide vessel brings the wine into contact with air, and in older bottles the decanter lets sediment settle before serving. Thin-walled, colorless crystal makes the color visible. Riedel recommends bottle cleaners for removing stains from the inside.
