All Riedel glassware is designed especially for a particular wine, and this mini-decanter is Cabernet friendly. Simply a smaller version of Riedel's 37-ounce Cabernet decanter, this one works well for holding a couple glasses from a full bottle--say, for those evenings alone with a good book. Exhibiting the modern diamond look of Riedel's Vinum Extreme line, the decanter makes a good match for those Cab glasses. Decanting--pouring the contents of a bottle of wine into a serving container--enhances the appreciation of the wine by increasing its contact with oxygen, basically the same process as swirling wine in a glass to release its bouquet. Decanting allows older as well as young wines to fully open up and "breathe." Because the decanter is machine-made and therefore affordable, more than one can be kept on hand to give each guest his or her own. The mini decanter stands 6-1/4 inches tall and holds 15-3/4 ounces, and should be washed by hand. --Ann Bieri

Fine Mini Decanter April 15, 2008
T. Patrick
This mini-decanter matches Reidel vinum wine glasses--same thin walled glass, same polish, etc. They feel a bit fragile feeling when empty (just like the glasses), but fine when full. Half a bottle of wine goes right to the slimmest spot of the neck. We wash ours in the dishwasher without problems; same with the glasses.
