The elegant Riedel Pinot Noir Decanter is the perfect shape for serving your favorite Pinot Noir.

Decanting wine before serving it - a few minutes for old wines a few hours for young wines - brings out the clarity and brilliance of the wine and gives it a chance to bloom. This graceful decanter stands 9.875 inches tall. Hand-wash only.

Decanters: Useful and BeautifulDecanters allow wine to breathe. This essential step exposes wine to the air and begins the release of the wine's unique aromatics thereby allowing for full flavor enjoyment. For older full-bodied wines decanting serves as a simple way to separate the wine from any sediment that might have accumulated in the bottle. Ultimately wine decanters significantly enhance presentation which completes the full sensory experience.
