A graceful little decanter

By pjw

from Sanford, NC on 2/26/2008

Pros:

Attractive Design, Easy To Clean

Best Uses:

Home Bar

Describe Yourself:

Quiet Homebody

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is a graceful little decanter that I use when I want to pour just a little bit of wine. It holds two glasses (about 10 oz.) if one fills it to the widest point. This also has the happy coincidence of aerating the wine quite well. The decanter glass is thin and light, and it generally pours well. I fortunately have not had the opportunity to drop it, so I cannot attest to its durability, but it seems to take my clumsy hands without complaint. - pjw
