| Dartington Crystal Bump Carafe | Most wines now do not need decanting because of sediment, but decanting wine into a carafe allows it to breathe before it is served, and the wide bottom allows maximum surface area of the wine in contact with the air.
The 24 percent lead crystal construction is both strong, and has a deep shine that shows the contents off to their best. Simple, yet classic.

Why should red wine be decanted?
The process of decanting red wine into a carafe allows the tannins in younger wines to escape. Tannins occur due to the prolonged contact with grape skins and seeds. Larger bell shaped decanters and carafes allow maximum air contact. | | | | | Other items of interest. | | |
