A lead-freecrystal glass decanter that gently rolls forenhanced aeration.

—DETAILS—

This rolling decanteris made by Rona, makers of fine glassware since 1892. Handmade and mouth-blown in Slovakia, the crystal glass body is smooth and completely lead-free. The wide belly of the decanter creates a large surface area for the wine to breathe, softening tannins to bring out its authentic flavour. Asthe decanter rolls in a gentle arc, it swirls the wine inside, folding in oxygenforexcellentexposure. It also makes a striking table piece.

—BENEFITS— ‘Using a decanter has two benefits: It allows the wine to have more contact with oxygen after being locked away in a bottle (to ‘breathe’), which is especially beneficial for tannic red wines. It also separates wine from the sediment collected at the bottom of a bottle.’
