WMF Easy Pour Decanter
Made of lead-free glass, this classic decanter holds one  750-milliliter bottle of wine. While the most common use of a decanter  is to prevent sediment in an aged red wine from spoiling the wine's  clarity and brilliance, some authorities also recommend decanting young  red wines to give them the opportunity to bloom. In either case, this  decanter brings elegance to the dinner table. And because it has an  indented well in the bottom, steady, careful pouring is possible, as  fingers fit securely into the well while the thumb grips atop the  decanter's flared base. Standing 9 inches high on a 9-inch-diameter  base, the decanter serves beautifully as a vase when it's not being  used for wine.--Fred Brack
