I prefer to decant wines, both young and old. It is a sign of respect for old wines and a sign of confidence in young wines. Decanting old wines, just a few moments before they are served, helps to ensure that the wines' clarity and brilliance are not obscured by any deposit that may have developed over time. Decanting young wines several hours before they are served gives the wine a chance to bloom and attain a stage of development that normally requires years of aging. - Georg Riedel.
For the more relaxed wine drinker, looking for a simpler design, the Swirl decanter is the perfect addition to their wine accessory collection. This decanters shape also makes it ideal for decanting white wines or champagnes as the vessel fits into a standard wine cooler or refrigerator allowing for the wine to remain chilled at the perfect temperature.
