Riedel Magnum Cabernet Decanter

Made in Europe by Riedel, the world's most-renowned wineglass maker, this decanter allows sediment to settle, clarifying any red wine. Even with a young, sediment-free wine, the decanter makes a beautiful serving vessel by displaying the wine's color. It conforms to Riedel's exacting standards: colorless, transparent, and thin walled. It holds 64 ounces, ample for two 750-milliliter bottles of wine, and measures 11 inches high. Its graceful, outwardly curved neck provides a secure grip when pouring.

Made in Austria by the world's most-renowned wineglass maker Riedel Crystal, founded in 1756, this decanter allows sediment to settle, clarifying any older red wine. Even with a young, sediment-free wine, the decanter makes a beautiful serving vessel by displaying the wine's color. It's machine blown of brilliant 2crystal and conforms to Riedel's exacting standards: colorless, transparent, and thin walled. It holds 64 ounces, ample for two 750-milliliter bottles of wine, and measures 11 inches high. Its graceful, outwardly curved neck provides a secure grip when pouring. Riedel crystal is used by fine restaurants all over the world and thus must stand up to frequent trips through a dishwasher. But because crystal has a soft, coarse surface to convey intense aromas, Riedel recommends that the decanter be hand washed. --Fred Brack
