RIEDEL Curly Decanter

Wine Decanter | Clear Crystal | 1.4L Capacity | 26.5cm Height | Standard Bottle Capacity | Handmade Mouth-Blown Design

Process & Profile

The RIEDEL Curly Decanter is a sculptural wine decanter designed to aerate wine while adding a striking visual centerpiece to the table. Its unique curled form creates movement as wine travels through the glass, helping expose the wine to oxygen and open aromas, texture, and flavor before serving.

Made from clear crystal, the Curly Decanter combines elegant presentation with practical wine service. Its 1.4L capacity is designed to hold a standard bottle of wine, giving red wines, aged wines, and fuller-bodied bottles room to breathe. The curved shape also makes it a standout display piece for dinner parties, wine tastings, home bars, and gifting.

This decanter is especially useful for Cabernet Sauvignon, Bordeaux blends, Syrah, Barolo, Brunello, Rioja, Napa reds, and other wines that benefit from aeration. It can also be used to separate older wines from sediment when poured carefully.

How to Use

Pour wine slowly into the RIEDEL Curly Decanter and allow it to rest before serving. Younger red wines may benefit from 30 minutes to 2 hours of aeration, while older wines should be decanted more carefully and served sooner to preserve delicate aromas.

After use, rinse with warm water and allow the decanter to dry fully. Because of the curled shape, avoid using RIEDEL Bottle Cleaner beads with this decanter. A decanter drying stand or careful air drying is recommended to help preserve clarity and prevent water spots.
